Nothing happens to data on the SOURCE server, where the data is exported
from.
EXPORT NODE just puts a COPY of the client data into a portable format.
You can export the same client, over and over and over.

Subject: EXPORT question


What happens to a node's data on a TSM server that has exported from one
TSM server to another TSM server ?

Does any thing happen on the server where the node was exported from ?
Because we want to test some different retention levels on the server
where
the node's data
was imported to so is there any risk to the data where it originally
resided ?
Has any one tested any thing like this ?

We are not planning to backup any more data to the node that was
exported
on the destination server where
we imported it.  but to keep backups running on the original TSM server.
Thanks

Justin
