Only if you are prepared to retrieve your off-site copypool volumes onsite
again; if you are not (as you should be :-) ) you have two options:

* Wait until all data on the "old" copypool is expired
* Delete volumes of the "old" copypool containing data of the affected node
  and issue BACKUP STGPOOL for each primary pool that is backed up to the
  "old" copypool.


MOVE NODEDATA *has* to have to volumes onsite, even if you're moving data
in a copypool. It's not smart enough to take the data from the primary
pools. Yes, this s*cks, and yes, DELETE NODEDATA would be handy. :-)
