You should backup your storage pool with directory information (its a
primary pool), to a secondary storage pool and send that offsite for your
disaster recovery! (But its not absolutely required for DR - you can
restore your files without the DIRMC information).
If the primary ever gets destroyed
Hi Peter,
Actually I do not know the perfect answer for you. Anyway, for sure the
move nodedata does not depend on what the oldest/newest data is. I believe
the first thing what TSM does is to build a list of volumes were the node

Is the directory information you referring about related to Windows
systems? You should use the DIR
