Hello,

The mount point to the .backup volume is inside the volume you're 
moving, so the mount point will move properly as part of user.xya

user.xyz.backup however is destroyed during the move and to avoid 
'connection timed out' messages I suggest 'vos backup user.xyz' after 
moving the volume

The arguments in <> brackets are required.  ( Those in [] brackets are 
optional.)

Therefore the syntax for vos move does require both 
fromserver/frompartition and toserver/topartition, as well as the volume 
name, even though 'server' is the same in both cases.

Cheers,

Kim
