mv is safe, I just prefer to use cp and rm when done if I have the space.

    If the data is not being accessed you can just cp or mv, I usually
don't have that luxury and need to start the move while people are
still using the files. I run a first rsync to copy all of them, then I
declare a very short outage window and do a final rsync to catch
anything that got changed. I do NOT use the --remove-source-files
option.
