cp command option :

 -x, --one-file-system
     stay on this file system

sometimes does not stay on the same filesystem.

using cmd line :
cp -r -u -p -x -f -v --target-directory='/abc/def/123/456/xx" /home
or
cp -rupxfv --target-directory='/abc/def/123/456/xx" /home

where '/home' is mounted on a different volume than '/'.

Detected by a call from python with os.popen().
