There is a planned feature - don't know if it's in 5.1 or not - called "move nodedata", that will let you do exactly what you want. it will probably be something like move nodedata node1,node2,... from-pool to-pool and you'll be able to parallelize that between several tape dirves, or restore only archives / only backups, or just resotre a particular filespace.
