Hi Juan, in this env we are a little bit different
We don't want to deactivate the old library (the library it self is not
old, it has the same config as the new lib, LTO3 FC, 44 sltos)
What I want to do is like this:
Today I have a pool: SP-FILESYSTEM-LTO -> LTOCLASS1 -> LTOLIB1
In this pool I have 100 tapes off library
With new library: SP-FILESYSTEM-LTO-NEW -> LTOCLASSNEW -> LTOLIBNEW
And pass this tapes that are off to this lib, without deactivating de
LTOLIB1
Atenciosamente,

Hey,
We just did something similar.
we started with 1 old acsls library (library=lsm2 and acsid=1) 4
tapedrives
and 300 cartridges
we ended with 1 new acsls library (libray=lsm2 acsid=2) 4 tapedrives and
300 cartridges.
1)created the 4 new tape drives in the lsm2 library that were physically
located in the new library (silo acsid=2)
2)disabled the 4 old tape drives in the old silo (acsid=1)
3)updated the old lsm2 library to have acsid=2
4)enabled the 4 new tape drives
5)then we physically ejected from the old library and entered into the
new library.
all worked fine.
Hope this helps,
Juan Perla
