IMHO it's possible but not the best way. It would be better, if you change the start-Script and point the data-dir to the new location.

I have mysql going to /usr/local/var (default for mysql I believe) At any rate when this machine was setup it was given a 15GB /var partition and just over 1GB for /usr and now well its running low on /usr. What I'd like to do is move mysql radius db to say /var/mysql and symlink /usr/local/var to /var/mysql. Will a symlink cause mysql grief? I'd like to move the current database and continue to log to it if that is possible as well. This is under BSD/OS 4.1 and mysql 3.23.38 Thanks for any info.
