This is not only for IOT's. See below:

SQL> CREATE TABLE test_move (
  2 id NUMBER,
  3 name VARCHAR2(20))
  4 TABLESPACE users;

Table created.

SQL> select table_name,tablespace_name from user_tables   2 where table_name ='TEST_MOVE';

TABLE_NAME TABLESPACE_NAME

-------------------- ------------------------------
TEST_MOVE            USERS

SQL> alter table test_move move tablespace tools;

Table altered.

SQL> select table_name,tablespace_name from user_tables   2 where table_name ='TEST_MOVE';

TABLE_NAME TABLESPACE_NAME

-------------------- ------------------------------
TEST_MOVE            TOOLS

See, the table moved!
