35 The B<vos copy> command makes a copy of a volume with a new name. It is
36 equivalent to B<vos dump> followed by B<vos restore>, but doesn't require
37 the volume be stored locally by the client.
41 Currently, the maximum size of a volume is 2 terabytes (2^31 bytes).
47 =item [B<-id>] <I<volume name or ID>>
49 Specifies either the complete name or volume ID number of a read/write
52 =item [B<-fromserver>] <I<machine name for source>>
54 Identifies the file server machine where the source volume resides. Provide
55 the machine's IP address or its host name (either fully qualified or using
56 an unambiguous abbreviation). For details, see L<vos(1)>.
58 =item [B<-frompartition>] <I<partition name for source>>
60 Names the partition where the source volume resides. Provide the full
61 partition name (for, example, B</vicepa>) or one of the abbreviated forms
62 described in L<vos(1)>.
64 =item [B<-toname>] <I<volume name for new copy>>
66 The complete name of the new volume to create.
68 =item [B<-toserver>] <I<machine name for destination>>
70 Identifies the file server machine to which to copy the volume. Provide
71 the machine's IP address or its host name (either fully qualified or using
72 an unambiguous abbreviation). For details, see L<vos(1)>.
74 =item [B<-topartition>] <I<partition name for destination>>
76 Names the partition to which to copy the volume. Provide the full partition
77 name (for, example, B</vicepa>) or one of the abbreviated forms described in
82 Leaves the new volume flagged as off-line in the volume database.
86 Flags the new volume as read-only in the volume database.
90 Copies the live volume without cloning. This is normally not necessary and
91 causes the volume to be kept locked for longer than the normal copy

100 This command has no output unless C<-verbose> is specified or there is
105 The following example makes a verbose copy of the C<test> volume named
106 C<test2> in the cell C<localcell>. The volume and copy both reside on
107 C</vicepa> of C<server1>.

135 The issuer must be listed in the F</usr/afs/etc/UserList> file on the
136 machine specified with the B<-server> argument and on each database server
137 machine. If the B<-localauth> flag is included, the issuer must instead be
138 logged on to a server machine as the local superuser C<root>.
