If one new_path isn't in HDFS, use -get instead of -mv.
If you're moving Hive tables, you should then use ALTER TABLE to change the
metadata. Or, if the tables are external and have no partitions, you could
just drop them and recreate them with the new location.

little more clarification
is it same hdfs cluster ?
when you say migrating data from one location to another are you keeping
the hive table metadata same?
how much of capacity you have by disk wise?
