Laurent - That's always awkward...

The product does not provide an easy means for reattributing file spaces to
other nodes - largely, I think, because it would be too easy for naive
customers to get into trouble in assigning a file space to an operating
system which did not support the kind of file system represented in the
file space.

I know of one, convoluted, way of achieving it, which I include in
http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ADSM.QuickFacts as topic
"File Space, move to another node".
