Hello Bertaut, FILE storage pool is a primary storage pool, not a copy storage pool.
MOVE DATA is working with volumes, not with nodes (it is not suitable at all for my case). MOVE NODEDATA requires both sequential storage pools: source and target. It just gives an error about DISK storage pool. RECONSTRUCT=No is a default option. I have decided to move all nodes to FILE storage pool by MOVE DATA, and then move selective nodes to another FILE storage pool by MOVE NODEDATA. I hope it will work, but I need to find enough disk space. Kindest regards, Grigori G.

I doubt that is the objective you are trying to achieve in this situation. Is your FILE storage pool a copy storage pool? If so, you wouldn't be able to move the data from the primary DISK pool to the copy FILE pool. Good luck.

Suddenly I have faced problem moving node data from DISK primary storage pool to FILE storage pool on the same server: 1) it is impossible to use MOVE DATA, because it is working with volume level and each DISK volume contains data of many nodes; 2) it is impossible to use MOVE NODEDATA, because it is not working with DISK storage pools; 3) it looks that it is impossible to use EXPORT NODEDATA / IMPORT NODEDATA, because node will be imported into the same storage pool (at least I do not know how to do this). How can I move node data from DISK to FILE storage pool? Kindest regards, Grigori G.
