Or you can mount the current /dev/mapper/rhel-home to /var/opt/dynatrace-managed (if that is your data location). </P><P><BR />I believe license won't be affected by any partition changes, but as far as I know, for a re-installation you will need contact support for re-activating the license key for a new installation, so I'd try to avoid reinstallation unless something gets really broken.</P> Fri, 02 Mar 2018 23:00:43 GMT https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Dynatrace-Managed-Q-A/Would-merging-of-partition-in-Managed-Server-rendered-the/m-p/56878#M373 Julius_Loman 2018-03-02T23:00:43Z https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Dynatrace-Managed-Q-A/Would-merging-of-partition-in-Managed-Server-rendered-the/m-p/56879#M374 <P>License is still valid after do so.</P><BR /> Fri, 05 Oct 2018 03:06:28 GMT https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Dynatrace-Managed-Q-A/Would-merging-of-partition-in-Managed-Server-rendered-the/m-p/56879#M374 waikeat_chan 2018-10-05T03:06:28Z
