Hello,
DDS and Lib Sharing ( partitioning) are all different.
In your case, if the Lib is Fiber attached, you would typically zone two
drive each to the Storage node and so forth.
Jbconfig will prompt you for Tape paths and you would supply the path to
the drives on the SN servers.
Library sharing or partitioning completely isolates two partitions on the
same physical lib and allows you to divide up the hardware,
NO! This is not library sharing. Library sharing is not the same as
partitioning a physical library into virtual libraries. Library sharing
is what you described in the first part of your posting, or more
accurately described by the previous respondent.
Library sharing does not necessarily require a SAN connection, it will
work equally well with SCSI attached drives. By comparison, DDS almost
always does require SAN attached drives.
