How long are you giving the migration from disk -> tape to work? you could
try upping the number of migration processes for the diskpool if you have
enough tape drives...
The backup stgpool from disk -> tape doesn't clear the diskpool as it goes
along.
Also, I would try and start you diskpool copy after the backups have
finished - only files that were in the diskpool at the time the backup
stgpool command was entered will be copied.
I would do things in this order;
overnight backups to tape & disk.
Then
migration thresholds to 0 for diskpool, maybe increase MIGProcesses to speed
it up.
Then (Once disk is empty)
backupstgpool Primary tapepool -> Copypool.
