Two ways:
Stop the server.
Move the directory to where you want it making sure the access control
is the same.
Note that archive/compress and uncompress will make the files larger -
if possible use cp (and I thing rsync is OK with these spare files)
Then either:
1/ Replace the database directory with a symbolic link. No need to
change the tdb2:location.
2/ change the tdb2:location.
Variations on (1) can make new databases appear elsewhere as well.

Stop the server before moving databases around!

Thank you Andy,
Replace the database directory with a symbolic link seems like the path of
least resistance.
Thank you for the advice
