Hi,

Glad that that makes sense, I was thinking about how to do it a while...

It is already in my branch, the tool is pvfs2-migrate 
syntax: pvfs2-migrate <file> -d <source bmi> <target bmi>, you can choose to 
migrate by specifing the source datafile handle as well.
Probably I will add to choose aliases later. I had this a couple of days back 
when I implemented a program quite similar to viewdist's capabilities to 
print out the file locations, just using different pvfs2 methods. I'm far 
away from knowing all functions... When I realized that I missed that 
viewdist shows the locations of the datafiles I laughed ;-) I missed this one 
too ;-)

Later I want to allow multiple migration requests hitting different datafiles 
of one file to be scheduled at the same time.

thanks,
Julian
