3573-L2U, switching from 1 full height drive to 2 half height drives.

We will be changing our 3573-L2U. We have a proposal from our BP to
replace the one 8043 full height Ultrium 3 LVD SCSI drive with two 8046
half height Ultrium 3 LVD SCSI drives.
We want to attach each drive to a different lpar. We are under the
impression that one drive will get the right magazine and the other will
get the left magazine.

So, we're correct in thinking that we can run a cable from a 571A card,
associated with a 2844 card, on one lpar to one drive and a different 571A
card associated with a different 2844 card on a different lpar to the
other drive. And both can be running at the same time. Right? These
will be configured as media libraries and the backup software will be
BRMS.
