[Veritas-bu] Mixed tape drives in library

2010-09-30 Thread przemolicc
Hello,

we have tape library with LTO4 (FC). We are going to add additional drives
to this library but the question is if it is reasonable to add the same
drives (LTO4) or add LTO5 ? What is you experience with mixing
tapes drives type in libraries ?

Regards
Przemek

Works fine. We used to have mixed LTO levels as we migrated from
2-3-4. Even now we have LTO3 and LTO4 both set as HCART3, but we also
are no longer using our LTO3 media (which is frozen). If you want to use
both types in a single library set them to different media types.
