Why not setup a new Device Class for this import and limit the number of
tape drives it can use?

Hi,
We are currently attempting to import a node that spans over 43 tapes. It
has failed may times due to, the backup over ruling the import priority and
grabbing a tape drive. Thus killing the import node.
We don't wish to turn off logging from "roll forward" Any other ideas so
the "import node" can consume only 2 tape drives and all other processes
only take up the other tape drives ??

Thanks,
Adrian
