Look at the help on "export node":
EXPORT NODE (Export Client Node Information)
Use this command to export client node definitions or file data to
sequential media.
Each client node definition includes information such as:
* User ID, password, and contact information
* Name of the client's assigned policy domain
* File compression status
* Whether the user has the authority to delete backed-up or archived
files from server storage
* Whether the client node ID is locked from server access
Optionally, you can also export the following:
* File space definitions
* Backed-up, archived, and space-managed files
* Access authorization information pertaining to the file spaces
exported
You could setup server-server communications and send the data
directly over instead of dumping to tape then reimporting.

Subject: Migrating nodes between TSM servers
Guys (and gals),
Is there a way to migrate node information (backup data, backupsets etc)
between TSM servers? I have two identically configured TSM servers
(4.2.3.0 on AIX) on the same network backing up around 1000 servers
between them. As some of my nodes are holding more data than others, I
have an uneven load on each TSM server and want to "migrate" nodes from
one to the other. Registering the node on the other TSM server and
pointing the node from one to the other is easy enough to do, but I
won't retain backup history or backupset information.
Any assistance would be helpful.
Regards,
