Re: Duel tape write to LTO's

Hello,
I was told that this could work If I have 2 backup disk pools.
Like I have backup diskpool, then I can have like say a DB2 backup diskpool
then I can have the next storage pool setting for the db backup pool so I
can migrate to the one Library then for the other backup disk pool
I can have it migrate to the other Library.
I think I can have simultaneous write to two different libraries
this way. Still not sure if this would work.
TSM Library setup
TSM SERVER LTO_LIB LIBRARY
TSM SERVER RMT1 DRIVE LTO_LIB
TSM SERVER RMT2 DRIVE LTO_LIB
TSM SERVER RMT3 DRIVE LTO_LIB
TSM SERVER RMT4 DRIVE LTO_LIB
TSM SERVER RMT_LTO LIBRARY
TSM SERVER RMT5 DRIVE RMT_LTO
TSM SERVER RMT6 DRIVE RMT_LTO
TSM SERVER RMT7 DRIVE RMT_LTO
TSM SERVER RMT8 DRIVE RMT_LTO
Any other ideas comments are welcome!
Thanks
