How could I change the location of journal files

It seems the journal files still sotred at /var/lib/mongodb/journal even I pointed the location to /workspace/datastore

How could I save journal files in other places Because the root disk is almose full.

    ls
    prealloc.0  prealloc.1  prealloc.2
    pwd 
    /var/lib/mongodb/journal



systemLog:
    destination: file
    path: "/var/log/mongodb/mongodb.log"
    quiet: false
    logAppend: true
net:
    port: 27017
    bindIp: 0.0.0.0

storage:
    dbPath: /workspace/datastore
    engine: wiredTiger

Quoting here

You can create a symbolic link to point the journal directory at a different file-system / block device.

More details is Mongodb Journal.

Another option is limiting the size of Journal file, here is one discussion

Is it safe to delete the journal file of mongodb?
