I have the both in the same library at multiple locations.  If you define them 
at HCART2, they show as HCART2.  If you define them as HCART, then they show as 
HCART.  You have to define them as the same media type as you defined the LTO-3 
tape drives.  That must be different from the LTO-2 tape drives.

The biggest headache is that unless you started out using the last 2 digits of 
the bar code in your tape label names, you can not make a bar code that will 
distinguish between LTO-2 and LTO-3 media.

The first time that you inject a new piece of media that is not set as your 
default media in your bar code rule, you will have to over-ride the media type.

Hello,
 
Quick question. .. Does anyone use LTO2 and LTO3 media in the same library 
because of a mandate from management?  Are there any gotchas? Does LTO3 media 
still appear as HCART2?
 
Thanks in advance.
