[hobbit] transfer host data

[Josh Luthman]

What I mean is something like..

cp ~hobbituser/data/hist/oldhost ~hobbituser/data/hist/new host
cp ~hobbituser/data/histlogs/oldhost ~hobbituser/data/histlogs/new host
cp ~hobbituser/data/logs/oldhost ~hobbituser/data/logs/new host

Notice you're using cp - not mv!
