There is a request for critical restore but when i started the restore it is in queue because the others weekends backup is in progress and all drives are busy, so i suspended the backups and byte counts of restore is started.
But i want to know can i provide one dedicated drive drive to restore if yes then how it is posible.??

To change the ownership of the media, you can use the bpmedia command. From its manpage:

the offical answer is NO.
but if you use only 1 storage unit
if you have 10 drives
and give that one storage unit 9 tape drives
then only 9 drives would ever be in use and in theory that 1 avail drive should be avail for a restore.
but who uses only 1 storage unit?

If the restore is going through LETS says A Media server and all drive under that is busy .
Assume there is another media server LETS say B and drives under this media server is free.
IN this case HOW WE CHANGE THE OWNERSHIP OF MEDIA ???

If your backup job is set to use "checkpoint", you can suspend one of them, and bump up the priority for your restore job over all incoming backup jobs. Then your restore would be next to make use of the vacant drive.
In some environments, people do assign one or two drives in a storage unit just for restore purpose.
