How to change default data directory in MonetDB?

I am trying to change the default data directory of MonetDB. I am running out of space, and I would like to migrate the data to another folder. Does anyone know how to do that?

I have installed MonetDB using the ubuntu package, and by default the data is stored in:

/var/lib/monetdb

I would welcome a solution that doesn't involve compiling MonetDB from source...

MonetDB data could reside anywhere. You could move the path to farm anywhere you like and just to provide the path to monetdbd while loading.

Refer: http://www.monetdb.org/Documentation/UserGuide/Tutorial

1) monetdbd create /path/to/mydbfarm
2) monetdbd start /path/to/mydbfarm
