I'd have to ask why you would want to use SSO on a VTL? Unless there is an arbitrary licensing issue you should be able to create as many drives as you need and assign the appropriate number of drives to each media server. It should work...but at least in our situation it would be more expensive to purchase the SSO license for each drive than to just create more drives.
