I have a customer that wants to upgrade to LTO3. He currently has 12 LTO2 tapes drives and one library. He wants to replace 10 drives and keep 2 LTO2 drives.
How can my customer intergrate the mixed drives and utilize the LTO3 media, without having the library load LTO3 media into LTO2 drives? He's would like to move his existing storage pools to the new storagepools utilizing the LTO3 device class, but he's unsure of how to keep the media separate while he has both types of drives defined to the library. Any suggestions are appreciated. TSM 5.2.7.3 Atape 10.0.2.0 Aix 5.2 ML8 Thanks in advance, ~james choate SourceOne Inc.
