Hello.
From the manual we have that innodb_data_file_path contains paths to
individual data files and their sizes. The full directory path to each
data file is acquired by concatenating innodb_data_home_dir to each path
specified here. Many other ibd files are result of per-file tablespace.
So, you can just change the value of innodb_data_home_dir, and move
files listed in innodb_data_file_path to the directory. I strongly
recommend you to backup your data before any actions.
