You're not going to do it without partitioning the library.  Hints in
another thread suggest it might be possible by using a another software
package as an interface but stock Netbackup will limit you to having a
library connected to one, and only one, master server.

The Master Server holds your volume database, you can't have a tape in
more than one volume database.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] 2 Masters and only 1 tape library - DR Exercise
comingup


Sungard only has one tape library available for our up and coming DR
Exercise, an IBM 3584 with 8 LTO-4 drives. SG doesn't have any more tape
libraries and we have 2 master servers to setup and do multiple restores
from for two different businesses/customers.

What's going to be my best method for 2 master servers and a single tape
library so I can share the drives between the two masters?
The tape library can NOT be LPAR'd as I've been told by SG. So this will
have to be done with Netbackup????

Please advise.
