You have to set the FORMAT= in the devclass to ULTRIUMC and LTO-1 and ULTRIUM3C
for the LTO-3 if you want to keep them separate.
Then you define a stgpool for the LTO3 devclass. The only gotcha I found was
trying to do a move data from the LTO-1 stgpool to the
LTO-3 stgpool. It just sat there waiting for a mountpoint in the LTO-3
devclass. Never moved. Opened a PMR, did some traces and
found out that the issue is to complex to fix in the device allocation
algorithm, so they're chaning the documentation to state that
"true" mixed media support is only fully supported if you partition the
library. NOT a solution in my opinion.

hi,
thanks for answering,
i it somehow clear to me, but you can change the "RECORDING FORMAT" on device
class properties so this is confusing me ...
thanks again

Hi,
I would say yes, since a device class contains device type and format.

hi all,
just a quick one, when mixing LTO1 and LTO3 drives do i need to make a new
device class for LTO3 drives ?
i mean ... confused ... how TSM knows that LTO1 tape must put into LTO1 drive
if he wants to write onto that tape ...
BIG thanks for any answer
