          copy - Request box copy

     Description
          This RPC is issued when Plan B wants to copy the box sbox
          located at addr to the box dbox. The request is sent to the
          destination box, which would retrieve the contents of the
          source box and update itself. The known attributes of the
          source box are sent to allow the destination server to cache
          box contents.  The system call copy(2) sends such request to
          the server where the destination box is located.
