MSL 8096 Partitioned for VLS Smart Copy & Regular Backup, Restore
Have anyone used a Partition on MSL Libraries for VLS Smart Copy while using the other partition(s) for Regular Backup and Restore.
Is it a viable solution?
P.S. This thread has been moved from Tape Libraries and Drives to Disk-Based Backup. - Hp Forum moderator

According to the User Guide the destination library must be fully dedicated to VLS, and no other application/device should access it.
Please review page 77
http://bizsupport2.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01869504/c01869504.pdf
"The destination library can only be used for copy operations"
I hope this answered your question.

From the perspective of the applications each has their own library with slightly longer move times. As long as the VLS Smart Copy reads the number of slots from the library instead of assuming a particular library type will have a hard coded number of slots there shouldn't be any problem.

Re: MSL 8096 Partitioned for VLS Smart Copy & Regular Backup, Restore
Can you tell us what model VLS and backup application you are using? I would like to get a configuration with the VLS and a partitioned MSL into our normal qualification cycles. We might as well consider using a configuration that we know is a real customer configuration.
The only thing I can think of to watch out for is that the VLS automigration works best with a mailslot enabled and when the library is partitioned both applications share the mailslot. During export only the partition that performed the export can use the mailslot but during import it is up to the user to use the console for the correct application and import the tapes from the mailslot into the normal storage slots.

I have attached a screenshot from the VLS automigration screen.
