Yes, but it isn't necessarily a straight forward process. The tool we use is DELETE VOLUME (volume_name) DISCARDDATA=YES, BUT, and that can be a big obstacle, we only want to delete data that belongs to the pertinent node on the volumes.
To accomplish this, we have set up our copy pools and nodes in collocation groups and, when we want to segregate a node, we set them up in a separate group. Then we can do a move data on the volumes that contain the pertinent node information so that we can do a DELETE VOLUME on the new volumes created for that node. If anyone has a favorite way of doing this, or if TSM would like to create a DELETE NODEDATA with a COPYPOOL option command, or update the DELETE FILESPACE command to allow specifying a copy pool, it would be a LOT easier to accomplish this.
