Robert,

Yes, that's how I've done it. Works fine. You can also have multiple migration 
processes running, if you have the resources. The downside is that migration is 
by node, so tapes won't be emptied individually, but all data for a node will 
be moved, then another node, then another node. If this is a bad use of 
resources for you, you can do "move data VOLSER stg=NEWSTGPOOL" to control the 
flow a little tighter, and get tapes back to scratch faster.
