I'm doing a conversion from LTO2 to LTO5 and I think I either ran into a limitation I didn't know about or a bug.
 
NetBackup 6.5.6, Solaris 10 Master / Media.
 
I was duplicating a large image than spans a couple source tapes. Those source tapes are not in the same robot due to sorting / shuffling.
 
The duplication process failed after it attempted to mount the first tape it needed that was in the "2nd" library. In the job details it shows
current media S00768 complete, requesting next media Tape.TLD002.1:S01209
the problem: tape S01209 is not in the robot housing the Tape.TLD002.1 drive.
 
It appears the reservation system looked only at the first tape needed when it requested a tape drive and assumed that drive could be used for all media.
 
Did I find a feature or bug?
