Dear TSMers,
We have TSM 5.5.1.1 under AIX 5.3.
I need to move data from DISK primary storage pool (raw logical volumes) to 
FILE primary storage pool (JFS2 file system).
There are 3 tape copy pools for DISK primary pool.
I am going to use next procedure:
1) create FILE primary storage pool with appropriate size;
2) move data from DISK primary storage pool to FILE pool by "move data <vol> 
stg=<FILE> reconstruct=no" (volume by volume);
3) delete DISK primary storage pool;
4) rename FILE storage pool to old DISK pool name.
My expectations:
1)     all existing tape copy pools, made for DISK pool, will be still legal 
for FILE primary storage pool (no need to make extra backups and it is possible 
to restore any data in FILE storage pool);
2)     no need to modify any copy groups connected to old DISK pool because of 
the same storage pool name;
3)     expiry process will continue to work normally;
4)     full/incremental backup history will be untouched by data movement.
Am I right?
I will deeply appreciate any comments.
Thank you very much in advance.
Kindest regards,
