Hi Spongebob.,
Within a library partition, only one generation of tape drive is supported. So mixing both the LTO7 and 8 together in the same library is not a supported configuration.
If your library supports partitioning however, you can create a partition for the LTO8 drive separately, then add both libraries to your media pool and set how you want the multiple libraries to behave (active:active where both are used simultaneously, or active:passive where one library is used only as failover)
