I'm trying to move the location of database files from /var/lib/mysql
to /home/lib/mysql
I only changing database files. Socket is still /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
(only changing datadir
in my.cnf
)
Now, all data in /var/lib/mysql
has been copied to /home/lib/mysql
MySQL has been started and everything is fine. Now time to cleaning up data in /var/lib/mysql
but I'm not sure what data can and cannot be removed in /var/lib/mysql
this is data (except database name) in /var/lib/mysql
:
ibdata1
ib_logfile0
ib_logfile1
mysql
