Support for separate dir per each library media stored

Support seperate directory location for each library media. 

i.e

for Libraries 
/etc/mhvtl/library_contents.10
/etc/mhvtl/library_contents.20

Media can be stored in
/opt/mhvtl/10/
/opt/mhvtl/20/

This allows mounting as different file systems.

How can I set up separate directories for separate libraries?
I'm using the following version:

[root@mhvtl ~]# vtlcmd 
Usage : vtlcmd <DeviceNo> <command> [-h|-help]
Version: 0.18.7

Mark,

Any chance this wish can come true in the near future ? I want to keep read/write I/O separated per each defined library if possible. I think creating separate directories per each defined library media can do the trick ..
It will sure keep things more organized at the least anyway.  
i.e

Libraries:
/etc/mhvtl/library_contents.10
/etc/mhvtl/library_contents.20

Media can be stored under:
/opt/mhvtl/10/
/opt/mhvtl/20/ 

Regards,

nia

Makes sense..

I'll see how hard it will be to implement 

I wont be able to look at it for a few days at least..

From what I can see, it will be an aesthetic 'feature'. not really offering any real benifit.

Although, I suppose it would allow you to have a different disk spindle per tape library.

Cheers
