    1. Config total amount of drives in Storage Units to one less than total amount of available tape drives.
    This will leave one tape drive free for restores. (Please note this can be any one of the tape drives - not one specific drive.

    2. The NBU 7.1 and 7.5 Status Code Reference Guide (see Handy NBU Links in my signature for links to NBU manuals) gives you this info:
    bpfis log on the client.

    3.Only way is config dedicated drive(s) as different density, which will require separate Storage Unit.
    Specify this STU in the policy.
    Remember that different density drive(s) and STU will require same density media. This means that you will have to dedicate specific tapes for use with this STU and drive(s).
