 Yes, I think I missed something. The 'real' solution is using the
 restore function with RESTOREMIGSTATE option set on.

 So I start all over again, now using the command :
 dsmc restore -restoremigstate=yes -subdir=yes /filesystem, which ended
 successfully :

 Restore processing finished.
 Total number of objects restored:    15,312
 Total number of bytes transferred:     20.8 GB
 Data transfer time:                1,719.61 sec
 Data transfer rate:                12,685.31 KB/sec
 Total failures:                           0
 Elapsed processing time:           01:37:59

 But, dsmdf /ssa/home06:

 FSM             FS      Mgrtd   Pmgrtd  Mgrtd   Pmgrtd  Unused  Free
 Filesystem      State   KB      KB      Files   Files   Inodes  KB
 /ssa/home06       a     108048  0       12810   0       7674748 7891148

 So, the sum of the sizes off all migrated files is now 108Mb and should be
 > 60Gb!

 And dsmreconcile gives "unable to find any candidates in the file system"
 but there are at least 4500 candidates with total size of 20Gb.

 dsmreconcile /ssa/home06:

 ...
  Querying the ADSM server for a list of migrated files...
         Received 16566 entries
  Querying the ADSM server for a list of backed up files...
         Received 15351 entries
 ...
  Writing the new migration candidates list...
         Note: unable to find any candidates in the file system.
 ANS9250I File system '/ssa/home06' reconciliation completed.

 An the current space management setting for this file system are:
 dsmmigfs Q:

 File System     High    Low     Premig  Age     Size    Quota   Stub File
 Name            Thrshld Thrshld Percent Factor  Factor          Size
 /ssa/home06     80      75      -       1       0       13000000        4095

 Migrating one particular file (dsmmigrate file) gives:

 ANS9298I File file is skipped for migration: Backup copy found is not current.

 After making a new backup from this file, migration is possible (and
 a candidate is found by dsmreconcile).
 So after making new backup's from all the restored 4500 online files,
 there are 4500 candidates again.

 Summary:
 - the restored file system looks fine;
 - dsmdf doesn't look fine, question is why;
 - there are no migration candidates, unless you make a new backup of
   all the online files, question is why.

 Anyone any suggestion and/or answers?
