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
96 Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
97 F</usr/afs/etc/KeyFile> file. The B<vos> command interpreter presents it to
98 the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during mutual
99 authentication. Do not combine this flag with the B<-cell> argument or
100 B<-noauth> flag. For more details, see L<vos(1)>.
104 Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the command's
105 execution. If this argument is omitted, only warnings and error messages
110 Encrypts the command so that the operation's results are not transmitted
111 across the network in clear text. This option is available in OpenAFS
112 versions 1.4.11 or later and 1.5.60 or later.
116 Shows all servers as IP addresses instead of the DNS name. This is very
117 useful when the server address is registered as 127.0.0.1 or when dealing
118 with multi-homed servers. This option is available in OpenAFS
119 versions 1.4.8 or later and 1.5.35 or later.
123 Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are
130 This command has no output unless C<-verbose> is specified or there is
135 The following example makes a verbose copy of the C<test> volume named
136 C<test2> in the cell C<localcell>. The volume and copy both reside on
137 C</vicepa> of C<server1>.

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