I totally agree with what Don is saying, it makes much more sense to
change the density of the new drives to match the old drives and change
any new LTO4 media that's been put in to match as well.
Not only is there probably more to change if you're changing all of the
old media to the new media
You said, "we're planning on replacing our LTO3 drives with LTO4s

Wow. Thank you all for your responses. The culprit was the Override
Policy Storage Selection. On this particular policy, we make multiple
copies, and I had to go into the Properties box for each copy and change
the storage unit group there.
Again, thank you all for the ideas.

Well, that's just silly. It shouldn't be necessary at all. It must be

Also check your "Override policy storage selection" marked on each of your
schedules. Normally it's unchecked and will inherit from the policy setting.

I have installed a new tape library(tld1). I still have my original

To use the drives for regular backups, you have to present the drives to
the NetApp and the Media Server(s). The SSO Option also has to be
installed for this drive sharing to be enabled.

Then they're not dedicated, are they?

One of the things that come to mind for me is as the tapes expire - have
them OUT of the robot and delete them from NB - they must have no good
data on them, but you know this already. Then set up a barcode rule for
new tapes and put the old ones back in to come in has the type you need.
Not sure
If I dedicate 2 drives to the Netapp and have the zoning setup properly
will the media servers use those drives for regular backups as well?

Correct, the error is telling you what the problem is. ACSLS returns a
media type to NetBackup during inventory and NetBackup will check it's
Media Type Mapping configuration (for API robots) to see what type of
media it should be in NetBackup.
If Barcode Rules or manual changes tell NetBackup th
M, thanks for your reply.
I have tried that, changing the nb density type of LTO3 to LTO4 but when i run
an inventory afterwards, i receive an Error 95 which seems to be because of
ACSLS:
"Inventory failed: media ID is not the specified media type(95)"

LTO1 & LTO2 is where I had my crossover point.
You can go into the media database (vmchange) & change the media type on
the LTO3 tapes to be the same as your LTO4. The drives will read &
write these tapes, they'll dumb down to the format automatically. I
marked mine with a comment that reminded

So I'm messing around with SLP's and want to make sure the behavior I'm
