Rodrigo,
side note: I and probably others shy away from unclear problems. Being
very specific and showing that you've done your own research shows that
you are 'worthy'.
Anyway, to do what you are asking you cannot use primary or copy
storage pool tapes. You can only move data from one ADSM/TSM server to
another via export and import of the node (including filedata).
Review the ADSM Admin Guide & I think you'll get the procedure.
Regards,
Steffan
