You'll need two different configurations. The planner tries to fill a certain amount of tapes (of a determined size) so it can't handle mixed storage like you suggest. If they were of the same size you could play with the aggregate changer but that's not the case. I'd suggest one configuration for the admin data on LTO6 and one configuration for the other data on LTO7 (externally scheduled as appropriate) -- Lorenzo Marcantonio
