Hello All:

We have both LTO GEN1/LTO GEN2 media (NBU v4.5 FP6 WIN2K03) and are currently 
manually assigning media to our pools. We are currently using LTO GEN1 MEdia 
exclusively for Incremental Backups and have a Media Pool configured for this 
purpose.  We are also using LTO GEN2 Media exclusively for Full backups and 
have a similar pool configured for these.

Is there any way to put both media types into a Scratch Pool and have the 
appropriate media type  automatically brought into the correct Pool when new 
media is needed?

I am currently think of using barcode rules to assign a range of labels to each 
type and configuring the robotic inventory to move each media type into the 
appropriate pool in this fashion.

Does anyboday have any advice as to if it is possible to use a scratch pool in 
the manner I've described?

Any information/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
