My Linux installation only has about 1gb in the /var partition, so I need to relocate my databases to the /home partition. I'm pretty sure the following commands will shutdown mysql, move the data directory, create a symbolic link, and then restart mysql. My question is, is this complete, or do I need to chown/chgrp/chmod the new symbolic link directory?
mysqladmin -u root -p shudown mv /var/lib/mysql /home ln -s /home/mysql /var/lib/mysql /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld start Query, SQL __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
