    This was my first solution.  The problem is that I don't have any disk
space sitting around that I can export to.  I have a 240G DISK stgpool,
and one of the nodes that I need to export is 9G.  I wanted to export them
to a FILE class with 650MB limit to burn to CD.  However, then only place
I can do this to is an NFS directory on another machine.  When I discovered
that we had a 5G 8mm tape drive lying around, I rejoiced!
