Adrian,
I must be expressing myself badly because you do not understand me.
My copypool tapes are housed in an offsite tape library. They never
leave there unless they go bad. The move nodedata's run there, on the
offsite library-- on its drives. We do not use a courier to move
tapes between our
rage -not- a another library.
Many Thanks,

The key word "collocation" does not appear in your question. That's
the architectural solution to keeping related data together.
Collocation is conventionally used for onsite volumes, but not for
offsite volumes, given the substantial tape management complications
that would occur with
I have a number of filesystems on various servers which fragment badly
in my offsite (copy) storage pool when using progressive incremental
backups. The filesystems aren't particularly large, but files are
frequently created/modifed/deleted.
For local volumes I can simply "move nodedata" occasiona
