We are installin 10 new IBM 3592 tape drives, to be used primarily as
offsite storage units.  I am wondering about the best way to incorporate
these into the system.  My thinking was:

Create new Copypool
Backup the Disk Pool to the New Copypool
Shrink the Old Copypool by Ettrition (sp?)
Eventually Copy the Old Copypool Tapes to the New Copypool

Am I missing anything?  Is there a better way to do it?  Thanks for any
information.
