Hello.


>From the manual we have that innodb_data_file_path contains paths to

individual data files and their sizes. The full directory path to each

data file is acquired by concatenating innodb_data_home_dir to each path

specified here. Many other ibd files are result of per-file tablespace.

So, you can just change the value of innodb_data_home_dir, and move

files listed in innodb_data_file_path to the directory. I strongly

recommend you to backup your data before any actions.
