Yes setup a sched to update the disk storagepool to zero and a sched to
reset it back . [ upd stg poolname hi=0 ]
You can run these scheds prior to the backup schedules.
You can increase the disk pool size to accommodate the scheduled
backups.Then force a migration at a time that is more convenient to
offload to tape.
