Others will have to chime in on tuning the server for vos move. I have one
thought that might or might not help - do something like this from a host at
source site. I am far from sure of the syntax but you get the idea:
vos dump srv part vol | ssh host-at-target-site vos restore srv part vol
hmm, probably simplest to have the target-site host be your fileserver or
otherwise havea copy of the server key, and use -localauth.
If the volume is actively being written to this will probably not do what you
want, and you'll run into issues with ssh limiting your throughput, too, but
it's a possible option.
re ssh transfer slowness, see PSC's patches to openssh.
also, "never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of magnetic
tape." Which I wouldn't want to do, either, but I like saying it :)
If you can schedule enough down time, then disconnecting the disks and
physically moving them to the new site might be worthwhile. If I recall
correctly, just reattach the disks and run "vos syncserv"
