LInux 8 extending partition root

by

from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6KE4C)
Hello,

When I installed Oracle Linux 8 I was assigned 250GB and did not realize:

root partition 70GB
home partition 180GB

MYSQL runs on root partition and I wonder how can I expand. I know I can add extra storage and extend by merging: https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/resize-lvm-simple

I wonder if there are:

- a way without adding extra storage
- a way to point MySQL database to pint to /home partition instead or /root partition.

Thank you
