TSM will be cool with that - but your SCSI bus might not - ie: you may see
performance problems if all drives are running at the same time... Better
to put the new library/drives on a new scsi channel.

You control that with Management Classes (the management class determines
which storage pool to use for initial storage). It might be easier to
create a new domain (and hence new management classes in the domain).
