Dan,

-On 3.4 make sure that you have the appropriate license on all the servers
that will be sharing the drives. 
-make sure that the drive names match. In other words, if drive (1) in the
library is named Drive1, it must be know as Drive1 to all servers that share
it.
-make sure that on the drive in question on your master that the multihosted
option is selected.
-If this is NT/Win2k the easiest way is to add, configure the drives from
the master.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Shared Storage Option
Sensitivity: Confidential


Has anyone used the Shared Storage Option that is available with Veritas
3.4?

I have been trying to implement this in a SAN and had problems with the
Multihost drive option.  The option that allows the drives within the tape
library to be controlled by multiple media servers.  One of the media
servers sees the drive with multihost capability, but the master/media
server says that the drive is not multihost capable.

I found a system admin guide for SSO online, but I wasn't sure if there was
a separate install guide for SSO.

If anyone has some input about implementing SSO and getting the
library/drives shared between the media servers, it would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank You,
