Hello list,

my intention is to retire the old jukebox (LTO1 drives) and replace it with
a new box with LTO3 tape drives. 
Until the retention period for the data on LTO1 media is expired I plan to
attach both jukeboxes to the Networker server.

All backups shall go to the new box, the old box shall be available only for
restore. I guess this should achieve this:
- label new LTO3 media into exisiting pools
- set all LTO1 media to read-only

Is there a flaw in this plan?
Can Networker handle media of the same pool in two jukeboxes in this way?


Thanks for your time.
