@dpwrussell created the great MRE gist which shows that moving OMERO's omero.data.dir while also setting the read-only flag for repos will lead to the confusing scenario that the OLD location will still be used in queries. A workaround is to manually change originalfile.path for the given name=ManagedRepository entry, but this should be prevented if possible.
Alternatively, OMERO should provide clearer guidance on moving the data directory.
