Onsite copy pools will be requested automatically during restore, if  primary 
pool volumes are unvailable.
This is normal disaster mode recovery (at Disaster Site), when primary pool 
volumes are marked UNAVAILABLE and available copy volumes changed from OFFSITE 
to READONLY.

Subject: [ADSM-L] copy pool for restore load balancing

Hi,
A primary tape pool has 8 drives and they are busy right now. Will the copy
pool (which is an on-site tape pool defined on another tape library) help if
clients need to restore something? Copy pool helps if something is wrong
with the primary pool, how about contribution to restore if primary is not
ready?

Thanks
