I think your core problem here is better solved by using storage units.
You shouldn't be assigning your backups to a specific library by using
volume pools, you should be directing your policies to a specific library
via a storage unit defined for that library only. If you don't want the
master to give empty media in library B to pool X, then don't direct the
backup intended for pool X to the storage unit that uses library B, use the
storage unit for library A.
Pool is all about contents of the tapes, storage units are about libraries.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Scratch pool
Hi!
Can someone please advice me in this senario:
One master, two media servers and two librarys.
The master is the volume host and the medias the control hosts. In the two
librarys i have different labels. How do i configure the scratch pool in
this senario?
In library A i have ABxxxx lables.
In library B i have CDxxxx lables.
Lets say that pool X get out of tapes and need to poll some from the
scratch. Pool X usually writes to library A. But now the master gives away
empty media in library B to pool X.
Hope you understand what i mean. I would like to keep the media and librarys
apart even if they have the same volume database host. Is that possible??
Best regards,
MVH / Hampus Lind
