When you delete a copy pool volume you will only lose the data on that volume, you will not lose the data in the primary pool. If you run a backup storage pool to the copy pool TSM will re-copy the deleted data to it. We deleted nearly 1,000 tapes from a copy pool we stopped using, but before we ran the deletes, we made sure the primary pools had been copied to the new copy pools.

Hi Everyone, I wanna delete a copypool storage group on a server but still keep the data in my primary tape pool. When I read the help information it only tells me information what's happening if I delete a primary disk or tape pool. My question is, how will TSM react when I delete a volume in my copypool? Will it react in the same way when I delete a Disk volume or will it act in the same way when I delete a tape volume?
