I am thinking of moving my database from its default directory where mysql puts on new databases. I am currently running OpenNA 1.0 and my database server may soon be out of disk space. I know I can do this thru my.cnf. Are there anything to consider execept changing the ff:

datadir=/var/lib/mysql

How about the basedir should I change it too to the desired location?

Hope you can help me.

Thanks and more power.
