Volumes are a kind of virtual harddisks. My $HOME for example
corresponds to the volume H.haba. As I have a lot of source, I have a
subdirectory $HOME/src which corresponds to volume H.haba.src. H.haba
and H.haba.src can reside on different servers and can be moved around
with ease, but one of them can not span over serveral servers.
