Thanks for the response Matt. I understand how that could be a difficult
situation to deal with. Fortunately, the DXi is a VTL that I can't really
remove the tapes from anyway. Additionally I have the ability to move virtual
tapes from library to library as needed. But I will give your caveat serious
consideration as I move forward.

>From my sad, sad history with doing exactly this, I'd recommend that
you don't follow this plan. In particular, with version 7.2, if you
need to do a multi-tape restore, Legato /insists/ that all tapes be in
the same jukebox. I found that to be very inconvenient. I can imagine
that it might not be as much of a nuisance for you.
(I had originally done this when SONY caused a huge mess by having AIT-4
tape drives that couldn't read AIT-3 tapes, so I had different drives in
different libraries. -- you can imagine how obnoxious /that/ turned out.)
Does anyone know if newer versions of Networker have fixed this problem,
so that restores now know about all tapes in all libraries?
