Muthyam,

Why add slots when you can upgrade your B1As to E1As and double your capacity 
or H1As and triple it? Second hand 3590 equipment is very cheap now that the 
3592 has come out.

Anyway.  The way I used to do it was to explicitly assign tapes to management 
classes for onsite use and let the scratches get used for offsite use.  That 
meant I had to monitor the number of empty tapes in my onsite pools and make 
sure I had enough every day.  A few small scripts/macros  (eg delete a tape 
from one pool and define it in another) and it all worked fine.

Regards

Steve.

Greetings ALL,
Soon we are going to expand our tape library(3494) with more slots
after we run out of space with existing J' cartridges. We have got
some(600) new K' cartridges of high capacity to use along with
J'cartridges. I have been asked to use K'cartridges for offsite(I know
K's more sensitive) and J cartridges for onsite.  I have been searching
for right method to accomplish this task and seen couple of cases from
adsm but different .

Please share ur experiences.....since I am going to handle some
critical data.

We have AIX5.2/DB2/SAP
Library:3494
drives:B1A (green sticker on it)

thanks on advance.
