This should work, make sure you export all filespaces for the node. Each TSM filespace contains data for one and only one Exchange storage group. > 2.

If this is for Data Protection for Exchange, this can be done by using a "COPY"-type backup and binding the "COPY"-type backups to a different management class using the INCLUDE statement. See the User's Guide for more information on that. If this is for "file"-level backups... did you look into the archive function to accomplish long term retention?
