how to change the MySQL and web directory in Plesk for Linux?

My idea is to have the database on one disk and the Web on another, I have already changed the mail directory, setting in the file /etc/psa/psa.conf.

Disk1 = SO Done

Disk2 = Database

Disk3 = Web

Disk4 = Mail Done

Directory for vhosts you can change with transvosts.pl utility:

# plesk bin transvhosts.pl --help
You should specify destination directory.
Utility to transfer vhosts content from HTTPD_VHOSTS_D directory to new place.

Usage:
        --dest-dir   <path>  Destination path. Path to new vhosts directory.
                             Example: /path/to/new/vhosts.
                             If directory does not exist it will be created.

        --correct-scripts    Changes user scripts.
                             Old vhost path is replaced to new path in content of all files.

@speed2 , did you had luck?
I've tried to move mariadb under another disk and now my plesk wont start.

 

[speed2]

I created a symbolic link pointing to another disk.

Exemple:

systemctl stop mariadb.service

mv /var/lib/mysql /diskmysql/


ln -s /diskmysql/ /var/lib/mysql

vim /etc/my.cnf
[mysqld]
...
datadir=/diskmysql
socket=/diskmysql/mysql.sock
symbolic-links=1


systemctl start mariadb.service

Hey guys! I wanted to move to a directory within my additional disk. It's possible?

You can move the vhost directory tree, but not a single directory of that only. Here is a detailed description how to move the vhost tree:
