 not require major work at server...

# mv /usr/share /home
# ln -s /home/share /usr/share

Please be informed that /usr/share contains a lot of really good
documentation and also the man pages so creating a link back to its
original place is highly suggested.

Depending on the type of installation (workstation/ server/ full/
customised); /usr/share should be from 200MB to 2GB. From the df
output that you have sent; /home is having 2GB free so before the mv
command make sure that /usr/share fits in /home...
