To answer your question about the partitioning, when you partition the ML6000 yes, you see separate libraries, robotic control arms, drives and slots. However, I agree with Scott that it would be less complex to use different media types, as long as you segregate your barcodes.

My library has 2 LTO-4 and 4 LTO-3 drives. What is the "Best Practice" for managing a library with different drive models? Do most people partition their libraries or use different media types in Netbackup? Also, do you see 2 robot control arms, libraries and tape drives for the different partitions when you partition? Thanks Dwayne Adams
