Assume the specified directory is /vol1/test1/, the volume was mounted with a junction path /vol1. Create a new volume in same Vserver and specify the snapshot policy if needed. Copy the data from the specified directory to this new volume. Modify the original path from /vol1/test1 to vol1/test2 on the host side. Mount the new volume with a junction-path /vol1/test1.
