Yes you can use AFM to move data within a cluster. If you are using the 
NSD protocol the target needs to be a separate file system, if you are 
using NFS it needs to be an NFS export.

Subject:        [gpfsug-discuss] Using AFM to migrate within the same 
cluster
Sent by:        [email protected]



The recent conversation about AFM has been interesting. I've read the
documentation several times and this is my question. Can AFM be used
to migrate between two filesystems in the same cluster? There are
examples of moving between clusters with NFS or native protocol but
I've got a simple situation of needing to transparently move 100M
files between two existing filesystems.

Thanks,

-Eric
