>From the Networker administration guide :

How to configure Multiple Networker Servers to share a storage node :
You can configure multiple Networker servers to share the same storage node,
as long as the following requirements are met :
- All volumes, drives, and autochangers on a shared node must be managed by
Legato GEMS SmartMedia Software,
- A NetWorker server that shares a node must have only SmartMedia devices
defined on that node,
- Networker servers sharing a node must have a unique name for each
autochanger on that node. You must ensure this administratively; it is not
enforced by the software.

This makes me think it might be possible to share a storage node with the
help of Alphastor (but we do not test this kind of configuration yet).
