Ben, thanks for that,,,,, I was thinking that I couldn't do a move data
to a copy pool because it was off-site,,forgetting that ADSM will
attempt to regenerate it from the primary pool.  BTW though, I don't
think that the preview=yes is available for a move data (but certainly
is for restore volume)
