NAME
       mvdir - move a directory

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sbin/mvdir dirname name

DESCRIPTION
       mvdir  moves directories within a file system. dirname must be a direc‐
       tory. If name does not exist, it will be created	 as  a	directory.  If
       name  does  exist,  and	is  a  directory,  dirname  will be created as
       name/dirname. dirname and  name may not be on the same path;  that  is,
       one may not be subordinate to the other. For example:

       example% mvdir x/y x/z

       is legal, but

       example% mvdir x/y x/y/z

       is not.

OPERANDS
       dirname
		  The  name  of	 the  directory that is to be moved to another
		  directory in the filesystem.

       name
		  The name of the directory into which dirname is to be moved.
		  If name does not exist, it will be created. It may not be on
		  the same path as dirname.

USAGE
       See largefile(5) for the description of	the  behavior  of  mvdir  when
       encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2^31 bytes).

EXIT STATUS
       0
	     Successful operation.

       >0
	     Operation failed.

SEE ALSO
