Hi,

If all the data is on the old tapes and you have non-collocated tape
pools, you could do it this way,
using a script.


move node NODE_A  from=GENTAPEPOOL to=GENTAPEPOOL recons=yes wait=yes
move node NODE_B  from=GENTAPEPOOL to=GENTAPEPOOL recons=yes wait=yes
move node NODE_C  from=GENTAPEPOOL to=GENTAPEPOOL recons=yes wait=yes
etc..

Simply do a move data for each volume.
If the destination stgpool is collocated, tsm takes care of it already.

Doing this very thing righ now.  Works great.

Subject: Manual collocation

Hi Everybody,

We have a bunch of old 3590 tapes that we would like to get rid of and
replace by higher capacity tapes. Instead of just moving the data off the
old tapes to new, I want to do a manual collocation by consolidating data
by server on the old tapes to new. Has anyone done this ? How did you
accomplish this ?

Rich
