You could do it another way: vos dump from source partition and vos restore to
destination. But generally the easiest way is addsite/remsite.
Note that vos remsite is the command to remove an RO volume, not vos remove.
Well, if you do that you just remove it from the VLDB, and leave the
actual volume on the server, and usally thats not what you want to do.
(even if it can be in special cases.)
If I want to move a RO copy I first do a vos addsite, then vos release
and then vos remove on the old site.
The order doesn't matter, but you would vos addsite the volume on the
destination
partition and (optionally) vos remsite the volume on the source partition.
It's generally best to keep your RW and RO volume on the same partition if disk
space is
an issue.
Its probably depends on what you are using RO volumes for, but I would
say that you usally want both a RO copy on
the same partition (its basically free) and then another RO copy on
another fileserver, or at least another partition.
