A method to export and then import a logical volume with assigned storage attributes, from a first information storage medium to a second information storage medium.

The method further includes forming an import list logical volume. The method further includes defining a plurality second storage attributes. The method further includes importing the logical volume, and the assigned first storage attributes, into a second information storage medium.
