Elvin -
I'm not sure what happened in your case, but in general you *can*
just use the command
UPD N nodename DOM=newdomain
to change the policy domain for an existing node. (I just now did
this for one of our testing nodes, so it does work.) Sean's caveats
about data retention apply, and you'll probably also need to associate
the node with a one of the schedules that's defined in its new domain
by using the DEFINE ASSOC command.
Elvin, what did you run into that made EXPORT (ugh!) your only option?

Once a node has been registered to a domain, you can't update it and

I believe that if you change the domain of a node, ADSM will provide for
the nodes associated data to follow. Provided you don't rename the node.
However, if the different policy domain translates into a different copy-
group, you may want to be careful as your data retention settings may be
vastly different.
Anyway, I believe you'd want to:
adsmc> upd node node1 node1password domain=newdomain
'though I'm not sure. Anyone else.
