You cant Alan. They are the same saveset/ssid held on different volumes.

What you can do is:
1: If you want the rentention time to be correct on the saveset, leave the 
retention time as you have, watch the non-7year tapes its on and when it is the 
only saveset holding them from recycling , label those tapes. It is important 
to label them, not mark them as recyclable. OR use nsrmm with an ssid/cloneid 
combination to delete the knowedge of the ssid/cloneid you dont want from the 
media index.

2: Set the retention period via the pool, not the saveset,  thus other pools 
with the saveset on will recycle correctly ** but the override on the 7 year 
pool ensures they stay for 7 years.

3: Use nsrstage to clone it from tape/pool to tape/pool. It wont be able to 
remove it from tape but it will delete the source ssid/cloneid from the media 
index. This assumes you no longer want the source saveset.


(** If your not bitten by the recycle bug that does not recycle correctly when 
pool retention is used. My 7.3.3 solaris install did not experience this bug 
and the pool method worked fine.)
