Hi Mark

Correct me if I am wrong you said that the information is also stored in my 
standard disk stotage pool (after migration on tape too). So after a move 
nodedata on my new storage pool on disk I will not need anymore the dirmc 
parameter and the old dirmc storage disk , all the information will be on the 
new storage disk including the directory structure .....

Regards

Leave your dirmc disk storage pool just the way it is now.

Information that goes into your dirmc pool is also stored in your standard disk 
storage pool, which you are now migrating to tape. The reason you leave the 
dirmc disk pool in place is so that when you have to perform large-scale 
restores, the directory structure information is restored from disk; this is 
much faster than restoring from tape.
