Hi Everyone,

I have three tape libraries each with 2 drives.
My scratch tapes are set to have no pool so it can be picked up by any job needing tape.
A drive will to use any free scratch tape in its library, which is great, but the problem occurs when a drive has no scratch tapes in its own library. In this situatuation it will try to load a tape from another library that is not attached to, which is impossible and screws up all my scratch tapes.

How can i restrict drives to only use tapes that are available in its own library, and not use tapes from other libraries it cannot access?

Thanks for the help
Kenny
