Could it also be feasible to restore the database of tivoli1 to tivoli2,
and delete the filespace / nodes you don't need?

Jim - Export is a cranky, rather underdeveloped facility in the product
      which, if it encounters an output tape error, will simply fail,
with no restartability.  You'd be sorely pushing your luck to perform
an Export Server and expect everything to make it out.  I would
recommend doing an Export Node, one filespace at a time.  Use Preview
on that and see if you get the volsers you need.
