Would you care to share your experiences tuning for LTO-2 drives?
We're in the process of setting up a pair of V880s to drive three
LTO-2 drives each in an ADIC Scalar i2k library.  After hashing out
some other problems, we're getting close to doing our tuning.   Oh
yeah, we're running Solaris 9 on the systems.

Thanks,
John
