   From above links, we know that
   ```
   10.3.  Destination Header
   
      The Destination request header specifies the URI that identifies a
      destination resource for methods such as COPY and MOVE, which take
      two URIs as parameters.
   
         Destination = "Destination" ":" Simple-ref
   
   
      If the Destination value is an absolute-URI (Section 4.3 of
      [RFC3986]), it may name a different server (or different port or
      scheme).  If the source server cannot attempt a copy to the remote
      server, it MUST fail the request.  Note that copying and moving
      resources to remote servers is not fully defined in this
      specification (e.g., specific error conditions).
   ```
   
   ```
   Abstract
   
      A Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is a compact sequence of
      characters that identifies an abstract or physical resource.  This
      specification defines the generic URI syntax and a process for
      resolving URI references that might be in relative form, along with
      guidelines and security considerations for the use of URIs on the
      Internet.  The URI syntax defines a grammar that is a superset of all
      valid URIs, allowing an implementation to parse the common components
      of a URI reference without knowing the scheme-specific requirements
      of every possible identifier.  This specification does not define a
      generative grammar for URIs; that task is performed by the individual
      specifications of each URI scheme.
