That is what I have done. I don't know of a better or different way.
One thought that IBM seems to be encouraging is to use FILE devclass for
disk storage pools vs the traditional pool & volumes. This way you don't
have the additional process of formatting storage pool volumes.

[ADSM-L] Shrinking a disk pool

I have a TSM server running as back end storage for IBM content
manager/Ondemand and content manager itself.
The OnDemand piece uses archive storage and the content manager uses
backups.
I would like to shrink the archive pool and re-allocate that storage to
the backup pool.
I have considered marking the re-allocatable olumes read only, then doing
a move data volume_name within the pool, then deleting the empty volume
and redefining to the backup pool.
Is there an easier way that I haven't seen?
Thank you for your time and consideration.
