This doesn't make complete sense. How do I move it to different storage
pools ?

The configuration on the AIX TSM server is completely different than the
zOS TSM server.  Different names, etc.

When running an "EXPORT NODE xxxx TOSERVER=XXX", data ends up in the
storagepools specified in the policy domain for node xxxx on the target
server.  This could be an archive pool for archive data.  Data does not
end
up as one file - if you export 50 files, 50 files are imported on the
target
server.

It sounds like you are talking about virtual volumes - these do indeed end
up as 1 file in the archivepool of the destination server.

The data does go into the archive pool.  The specific archive pool is
determined by the policy domain and management class.  More info can be
obtained in the following redbook.

  The ADSM Server-to-Server Implementation and Operation redbook
  goes into this subject.
