        Two ways...buy the partitioning license for your i2K and have a
separate logical library for LTO2's and LTO3's

         

        :-)

         

        Or you can do it based on media type.

         

        HCART2 Media (LTO2)

        HCART3 Media (LTO3)

         

        HCART2 Storage Units 

        HCART3 Storage Units

         

        NBU will only mount HCART2 media in an HCART2 storage unit and
so on.

         

        The media can reside in the same volume pool - that won't
matter, what matters is the media type and storage unit type.

                We will be getting an expansion cabinet to our scaler
2000 soon. At the moment we have LTO-2 drives and tapes. When we add the
expansion cabinet we are also going to add 2 LTO-3 drives with a set of
LTO-3 tapes. My question is how do I keep LTO-2 tapes going to LTO-2
drives while the LTO-3 tapes go only to LTO-3 drives. I suspect a
combination of storage units and tape pools but now that we are at
NBU6mp4 expired tapes just return to the scratch pool which would make
them available to anything.

                 

                present setup

                 

                W2K3 master/media with sso/ndmp to scaler 2000 (5 tape
drives allowed)

                W2K3 media server sso to scaler 2000 and DSSU (4 tape
drives allowed)

                W2K3 san media server sso to scaler 2000
