You need an eval license for SmartPools to begin with, of course.

Then you can give isi storagepool a shot:

isi storagepool nodepools

Actions:

    create    Create a node pool.

    delete    Delete a node pool.

    list      List node pools.

    modify    Modify a node pool.

    view      View details for a node pool.

This new isi command didn't exist when I ran my SmartPools experiments on a virtual cluster,

but I managed to create separate pools... by some other means (support would get outright dizzy).

Now with isi storagepool it should work much cleaner, check it out.

I can't speak specifically to the simulator question, but I have decommissioned entire node pools. Typically you end up with an empty node pool left behind, and you have to call support to have them do a disi command to remove it.

Thanks Peter

That did work, Created a seperate nodepool and moved ~100GB of data onto it.

while I was removing nodes from the cluster (smartfail the node) I managed to get the remaining nodes to report 33GB used out of 23GB
