2.2.4. Moving a Mount Point

Imagine that you have an NFS storage that contains user directories. Assuming that this storage is already mounted in /mnt/userdirs/, as root, you can move this mount point to /home by using the following command:

mount --move /mnt/userdirs /home

~]# mount --move /mnt/userdirs /home

To verify the mount point has been moved, list the content of both directories:

ls /mnt/userdirs
ls /home

~]# ls /mnt/userdirs
~]# ls /home
