MySQL Enterprise Backup User's Guide (Version 3.12.5)

5.2.5 Restoring External InnoDB Tablespaces to Different Locations

When a backup contains external InnoDB tablespaces that resided outside of the backed-up server's data directory, you can restore them to locations different from their original ones by updating their path names in the .bl file inside the backup; see description of the file in Table 1.1, “Files in a MySQL Enterprise Backup Output Directory” for details.
