Hi Paul, Please see my reply to Mehdi Salehi. http://www.backupcentral.com/phpBB2/two-way-mirrors-of-external-mailing-lists-3/ibm-tsm-13/lto4-copy-pool-with-ts3500-and-lto5-drives-105180/
But you can either specify a media type to a dedicated storage group or you can define a dedicated volume to a storage by running "define volume <STGPOOL> <VOLUME_NAME>" Hope this helps.

We have TSM 5.5 with an IBM TS3200 tape library. It has a mixture of LTO4 and LTO3 tapes in it. Various processes keep using LTO4 scratch tapes when I direct them to use LTO3 tapes, and vice a versa. For example running the command "backup db type=full devclass=lto3class scratch=yes" will write to an LTO4 scratch tape if one is available. Similarly reclaimation processes on LTO4 tapes will grab an LTO3 scratch tape if one is available.
