From my initial reading it looks like the only way to do this:
"Moving volume1 on ServerA to Volumex on ServerB"
is to use a Licensed Feature called FlashSnap.
Is this true?
The volumes are VxFS Filesystems and VxVM
raw volumes
Thank you

I understand you mean moving volumes from server A to server B ?
Are you then using the same disk on the server B as beofre on server A ?
Then have a look to vxdeport which deports all information from the volume to the disk.
IF so this could it be:
take care that you have the correct vxdg deport group!!!
umount -a
umount -f -a
vxvol -g datadg stopall
vxdg deport datadg
on new server
vxdg import {diskgroups} if neccessary (vx is doing automaticall
vxdg import <dg, datadg f.i.>
if issues then do vxdg -f import datadg
all volumes should be there, check it
vxprint -th
vxvol -g <dg, f.i. datadg> startall
vxvol -g datadg startall starts all volumes because they are in DISABLED after import after that vxprint -th shows all ENABLED don't forget to mkdir required mountpoints for vfstab
