Moving /usr/hdp to a different drive

[#1]

Hello,

Due to the system HDD space limitations I'd like to move /usr/hdp to a separate drive for all datanodes. Anything special to be worried about or a standard procedure (mount new drive, rsync /usr/hdp to the new drive, modify fstab, reboot) would do the trick?

Thanks.

Sounds ok as long as you continue to use /usr/hdp as the directory path for the new drive and shut down the cluster/node while doing the change.
