I believe to do what you propose, you would have to bring the offsite volumes onsite. This is not allowed at our site.

The best way, and it's not a particularly good way, is to 'dev vol xxxxxx discarddata=yes' for the volumes in the old storage pool that had that node's data and then do a 'backup stg old_primary old_copy' to re-backup any other node data that was on the deleted tapes. ------------------------------------------------------------------- The information contained in this message may be CONFIDENTIAL and is intended for the addressee only.
