Enhancement of move nodedata command.

i'd like to suggest you some enhancement of move nodedata command.
Does it make sense to add following filter on it:
- fromdate
- todate
- file filter extension ( ie *.DOC or *.CTL and so on ... )

I think in a near future, we all need to move back data from Tape volumes to Disk/File volumes to allow faster restoration ( ie TSM for VE ).
In fact i'm thinking about something like a tiering ( using TSM storage pool hierarchy ) embedded in TSM functions.

    Unfortunately we will not be implementing a solution for your suggestion in the next release or two as plans have been made to invest in other strategic focus areas. If after the next release of the product, you would like us to reconsider this request, please submit a new RFE.

    Thank you for submitting this enhancement request, while we currently do not plan to provide this function in the next release of TSM, it will be considered for a future release of TSM

    A first good thing will be to move nodedata but only the most recent one. What I mean is it would be nice if we can extend the option "type" with "ALLActive" as it is possible in the export command to copy the active data to an faster storage instead to configure a hole active data pool to only restore/retrieve a single node.
