We are, we have Disk and Tape on the same fabric, though we balance the load.
Backup Server
1 - Disk HBA to Switch1 Fab1
1 - Disk HBA to Switch2 Fab2
1 - Tape HBA to Switch1 Fab1
1 - Tape HBA to Switch2 Fab2
Work fine, and if one Fab goes down you still have access to some tape and some
STGpool on SAN Disk.

hi Koen,
yes we plan separate adapters for disk i/o and tape i/o.
I known the problem to use disk i/O and tape i/o on the same host bus adapter.
That's not the question.
Nobody can clarify the statement! That's my problem.
Can i use disk an tape devices in one fabric (not same hba) without problems or
must i design
two fabrics one for disk and one for tape (not zoning) ?
kind regards
Michael
