You have many options, what is it that you are trying to accomplish? Move

Not sure what your retention looks like, but if you move the nodes to a
different domain with a different retention (smaller), then the data will
get bound to the new policy after a backup is performed and the new data

When a NAS/NDMP backup start, there is a query from the datamover to the

did you change the asnode= option for the proxy datamover? If you are
using the same asnode= option, there should be no problem, but if you have

You are using a device class of FILE from what I see. TSM Treats the file
