We have different device classes simply to assign a different dataset name
prefix to the offsite volumes. We then use the DSN prefix as our selection
criteria for ejecting the volumes from the STK silos .

I've never seen any reason to have different device classes for primary &
copy pools, assuming they are physically the same device type.

Hi to All,
What is the importance of using a different Device Class for onsite &
offsite storage pools? Here in our site, we used single device class for
primary & copy pools. Any feedback is really appreciated. Thanks.
