I had the opportunity to have to restore a database a while back from a
backup created after disk pool backup and before migration. After
finishing, it appeared that the disk pool was in the same state as
before the migration.  Audit showed no inconsistencies and migrations
kicked off and migrated the data that had already been migrated.

Looks like migration doesn't really affect the data on the pool, just
moves it to tape and updates the database.

I like to clear my disk cache before backing up the DB, so that if I
restore that DB, I don't have a problem with what is in the disk storage
pools, as they certainly will not reflect what the DB thinks is in there.
It may then be a situtation where the only copy of some of your data is in
your copypool.
