Hmmm
=20
when we were considering using ACSLS to share our STK L700 (whicn I
believe is similar in behaviour to sharing an ACS SL8500) between two
masters, we were told by the Veritas consultant, and STK, that we had to
have the robot do the cleaning as per your advice from Symantec below.

        We have a new ACS SL8500 robot that we are just starting to use.
I am wondering how others are doing their tape cleaning.  Symantec says
that we have to use the robot to do it per this tech note"
http://support.veritas.com/docs/267306

        =20

        However, STK says we need to use NetBackup tape cleaning.  =20

        =20

        Assuming I can actually use NetBackup - I have been able to get
the masters to see the cleaning tapes in NetBackup using ACS commands.
But I cannot figure out how to isolate groups of cleaning tapes (Using
barcode ranges) to individual masters on the same robot using ACS.
Anyone know how to do this?

        =20

        I could just create barcode rules on each master for the
separate tape ranges and dump any tape ranges not meant for that master
into a DO_NOT_USE pool. =20

        =20

        Thoughts on this?  Thanks, Monte
