Hello, There is a small workaround for your issue. You can temporary move device configuration from one SD to another SD, next you can do Copy/Migration and at the end revert to original SDs state. Below is example: SD1 includes disk devices A, B, C SD2 includes disk and/or tape devices X, Y, Z If you wish to run Copy/Migration jobs between SD1 and SD2 e.g. between A => Z then you can rewrite storage configuration from SD1(A) to SD2 to this form: SD1 includes disk devices B, C SD2 includes A, X, Y, Z Now you need to mount file volumes resources A device from SD1 to SD2. It can be done e.g. by using NFS or SMB (or other more secure). In this step you have A and Z devices with their resources available locally on SD2 and you should be able to run Copy/Migration job. After proper Copy/Migration jobs you need just revert all above changes. If you need to automate this, you can write a script that will be realize all these actions. Please do not forget about update Storage configuration resources in DIR configuration file Best regards.
