System Administration Commands                          mvdir(1M)

NAME
     mvdir - move a directory

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/sbin/mvdir dirname name

DESCRIPTION
     mvdir moves directories within a file system.  dirname  must
     be  a  directory. 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  subor-
     dinate 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 filesys-

     name            The name of the directory into which dirname
                     is  to  be moved. If name does not exist, it

                     path as dirname.
