A "soft link" is done by your operating system, and depends on the file system underlying it.  Unix file systems almost all support simple and effective links, but Windows ones are usually too primitive and require you to do kludgy harder links.To do it on a unix-like systemMove the directory you want to relocate:  mv /opt/data/jira/export /opt/data/myjiraexports , then create the link with "ln -s": ln -s /opt/data/myjiraexports /opt/data/jira/export ).  When looking in the data directory, you will see a "link" that says export -> /opt/data/myjiraexports and Jira won't care - it sees a directory it can use for exports.
