take the tablespace offline
using OS commands, copy the datafile from the old location to the new alter tablespace <tablespace_name> rename datafile 'old' to 'new' bring the tablespace online

FYI, I have found with AIX that if I don't use the '-p' flag with cp (to preserve file permissions and mod times), Oracle complains when trying to bring the tablespace online, and I have to issue a file recovery command to update the file header info.

HTH,
Roy
