Do you have a mulyiple partition license for the I2k?  We have a 16
partition license on ours.  So far we only have the 14 LTO2 and 800
slots.  Once I can convince the powers that be in the money side of
things I would like to add a few LTO3 and a couple hundred slots for the
LTO3 tapes.  At that time I will be creating two partitions one for LTO2
and one for LTO3.  
Creating the partitions are not hard to do if you have the license.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] LTO-2 LTO-3 mix

 

        We will be getting an expansion cabinet to our scaler 2000 soon.
At the moment we have LTO-2 drives and tapes. When we add the expansion
cabinet we are also going to add 2 LTO-3 drives with a set of LTO-3
tapes. My question is how do I keep LTO-2 tapes going to LTO-2 drives
while the LTO-3 tapes go only to LTO-3 drives. I suspect a combination
of storage units and tape pools but now that we are at NBU6mp4 expired
tapes just return to the scratch pool which would make them available to
anything.
