I don't think copy stg is exactly what you want...
If I understand things correct you would probably want to use the
"move data" command. That may be used to shift data from a volume
(tape, disk, solid state, anything) to another storage pool no matter
what the associated device is for that storage pool.
This is a MOVE (my guess-duh-mation of your desired end results) so if
you are switching devices you would probably want to do :
A) query vol dev=autotape
B) for every volume listed issue:
move data somevolser stg=StgUsingAutotape1
C) update your copy destinations in your copy groups, validate, and
activate...
Then you will be using your autotape1 devices rather than your
autotape devices...
also remember that with the archives you can use (from the client end
during when the cmd is issued) the -archmc to direct the archive to a
different management class than the default... so if you have
something like an optical disk you want to put 10 yr archives to but
you don't want regular archives going there you define but don't set
the optical as default then users can direct special archives there
with the -archmc=....
hope t his helps, later

Hello !
I have couple stg related questions:
Currently I have used my archive_nfs stg for arhiving and it is "sitting"
on deviceclass autotape. I want to start using anoter drive and stg for
arhiving (device class autotape1). can I copy/move my archives between
these two primary stg's.
If I am doing copy stg do I need to use exatcly same kind of tapes,
devices and libraries in my copy stg pool ?
