Try the 'move node' command which has a 'from' and 'to' parameter for your
stgpools. Hope that helps. Run a 'help move node' to get more info.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Moving Data

I'm struggling through a bit of a blind spot.

My goal is to move all the data belonging to a node from one active tape
storage pool to another. Over time, with deletions and additions, the firs
pool has become populated with much more data than the second, and as a
result migrations are occuring outside their scheduled times.

My environment:
TSM for MVS 5.3.3.0
Running under z/OS v 1.7

I read the manual, and Quick Facts, where I saw this:

*---
Node, move across storage pools         

Use 'MOVe Data', specifying a different storage pool; then reassign the node
to the new stgpool's domain. But if a node shares tapes with other  nodes:
reassign it to the new stgpool, then let the data expire off of the old
stgpool.
*---


The nodes I want to move do share tapes with other nodes, so I figured that
the second option was the way to go. However, that leaves this question: If
the node has files that have existed for a long time and never changed, they
would never expire off the old pool, so I would always be left with some
files in the old pool, correct? How would I move those files without trying
to identify them one by one?

Here's an example:


Trying to move files from NODE1, which is currently owned by the DOMAIN1
Policy Domain, from STGPOOL1 to STGPOOL2. 

The storage pools belong to separate domains (DOMAIN1 and DOMAIN2), both of
which have identical management class settings:

*------------
How many different versions of the file should be kept? 
This number of versions 30
 
Number of days to keep inactive versions 
This number of days 30

Deleted Files  
Number of file versions to keep 
This number of versions 30
  
Amount of time to keep the last file version 
This number of days 30
*--------------

Each node has files that haven't changed in more than 30 days, and probably
will never change gain. Those files will never expire, so how do I move
those? Thanks in advance for your assistance.
