    34 VFS module allows server side rename operations even if source and target are on different physical devices\&. A "move" in Explorer is usually a rename operation if it is inside of a single share or device\&. Usually such a rename operation returns NT_STATUS_NOT_SAME_DEVICE and the client has to move the file by manual copy and delete operations\&. If the rename by copy is done by the server this can be much more efficient\&. vfs_crossrename tries to do this server\-side cross\-device rename operation\&. There are however limitations that this module currently does not solve:
