You can identify which volumes contain that node's data on old copypool. Then delete those volumes which would remove the data for the node in question along with other nodes' data. On the end re-backup all affected primary storage pools to recover the data for collateral damage nodes. Works on any version but may consume a lot of time on non-collocated copypools.

He then backed up the new stg pool. After this was done, there were actually 3 copies of the data (1 in the new primary stg pool, 1 in the new copy stg pool, and 1 in the original copy stg pool). My questions is, how is it possible to remove the copy in the original copy stg pool since we now have it in a new copy stg pool. The move data command will not work because you can only move data within a copy stg pool and not into a new pool. The only thing I was able to think of was to blow the data away and re-back it up to the new primary stg pool. Any help would be appreciated. -- Joshua S.
