Yes. Use the SAN.
Library 1 contains device class 1 and storage pool 1 ...... library 2
contain copy storage pool of 1 and device class 2 .
Guess where library 2 is located?

Subject: Re: TWO TSM SERVERS
Hi,
would it not be possible to copy the primary pools from site A
directly to a
sequential pool in site B, by sharing robotics between A and B ?
This would
eliminate the need to establish server-to-server connections,
