DataMotion for Volumes in 8.1?

Hello All,

Running 8.1GA on a 3240 and trying to move two vfilers from one aggregate
to another (both are 64 bit aggrs). Ultimately I just need to move the
root and data volumes for these vfilers.

Not finding a wealth of examples on the "vol move" command, not surprising
as this is a pretty new feature.
http://www.netapp.com/us/communities/tech-ontap/tot-data-motion-1102.html

NetApp's blurb says this can be done without interruption, but also talks
a lot about when to do the "cutover." They say the cutover can be
triggered manually or automatically. But I can't make the "vol move"
command do anything but return a usage blurb unless I include a "start"
switch.

Also, their website claims this can be done nondisruptively. But "vol move
start" keeps failing because I have CIFS and/or NFS running. In fact, if I
turn them both off it still complains that I have NFS exports configured
and that I need to remove them first.

Anyone have experience moving volumes from one aggr to another, hopefully
live?
