It is pure SCSI based library control. However, what you probably could would be to use Tivoli's native library sharing functionality, introduce a SCSI multiplexer (since the TSM server would need visibility to each of the drives in order to allow native library sharing to work...unlike an ACSLS environment) and define two drives to each server, limit the mount points on the "master TSM server" to two and then make sure that the first two drive in the drive list are the drives that are not defined to the other TSM servers. Possibly a little more complex than you might like but it should work. The alternative would be to go to a larger library that was ACSLS controlled and then the process is a little more streamlined.

No drive sharing required, just want two drives per TSM server. It appears that the L180 has a single control path. Can I get this done with ACSLS? Is anyone doing something like this? Any advice is welcome. Thanks. William Mansfield [EMAIL PROTECTED]
