Well, start by doing Query PRocess and Query REQuest to see what may be active for the volume. Use Query LIBVolume to spot check, and search back in the Activity Log to see what has been going on with the volume. Poke around and gather more info. Context is lacking in the posting... If an LTO

You have two options: Partition the library, with LTO1 drives and media as one logical library and LTO4 drives and media as the second. If you have ALMS, you can over-commit slots in both libraries. If not, I'd check out as many LTO1 as possible before partitioning and swap tapes as you migrate
