      Alex, I do not know any official way to do it but if you are running them on Unix/Linux system, you may stop OMS (and all other related processes), move the installation folder (including content) to another mount point, and then create a symbolic link on old location to point new location. Disclaimer: It’s not guaranteed to work! :)
