Re: [Veritas-bu] HP LTO3 media on IBM 800GB LTO3 Tape drive?

The LTO spec calls for reading / writing 1 generation back and reading
two generations back.
Therefore, an LTO3 drive can READ/WRITE LTO2 and LTO3 and can READ LTO1,
LTO2 and LTO3.
As usual, if you are going to be switching media type I'd test several
backups and restores.
