Additional Implementation Needs for Redwood

CA Disk tapepools should be created that consist solely of Redwood cartridges, and all cartridges within each tapepool must physically be within the same Redwood unit.

If you have multiple Redwood units and a unique unit name or unit address can be used to reference each of them, you should use DYN1 to map allocations to tapepools defined in one unit, DYN2 for the second, DYN3 for the third, and so on. DYN2 through DY20 work in exactly the same manner as described for DYN1, and together provide the ability to identify and access up to three different groups of devices with special allocation requirements.
