Hello xvendrell,

Each Veeam B&R instance exclusively locks the device, so any other software wont be able to use the tape library recourses. It's still possible but you must partition the library to avoid possible conflicts. For occasional usage (i.e. recovery) - you can disable tape library in one Veeam B&R installation and enable it with the other. Thanks!
