When you define or update your stgpool use the
COPYSTGpools--=copypoolname option. For the syntax just type help
update stgpool at the command line.
The documentation says it works with both random and sequential access
methods, but i have never been able to get it to work on random.

HI DUDE! Happy New Year!
Sounds to me like that will work. TSM will certainly let you have
multiple devclasses pointing to the same library.
I would just test it - update the devclass, check a cartridge out of
your 3583 library, check it in to the 3584 library, see if you can run

Coincidentally, we just had the same thing happen to us, tho in our

If you have mirrored log volumes, you can try bringing up the server
