If your library support partitioning just give a drive and some slots to the
vm.
Else you can do it but you are asking for trouble.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] 2 Master Servers controlling Robotic Library
Hi again
NBU 5.1 MP2 + 2 SAN Media Servers Win2k3
I am not a fan of 6.0, although I have decided to take the plunge and
evaluate a clean install + MP3.
My current setup uses an HP ESL fiber channel tape library, that is
controlled by my 5.1 NBU Master and 2 SAN Media Servers also having access
to the drives.
I have installed NBU 6 on a Virtual Machine - part of my domain and fully
installed.
My question is this; Is it possible, if I configure my VM to see my Tape
Library, that it COULD also control the library as well as my NBU 5.1 Master
Server? Obviously not at the same time, purely for testing purposes only.
More importantly, I do not want to disrupt the production system where
possible.
But can it be achieved? Failing this, I will just go back to disk-based
backups, where I have 1TB of space available to play around with for the
time being.
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
Thanks
Regards
