Hi there. I have a working Indico and texlive located at /opt/indico and /opt/texlive. Because of disk space issues, however, I need to move at least the indico install to a different disk at /var/www/indico. After moving the directory, I understand that I need to update the path in the apache/nginx settings. It also looks like there are a couple paths with “/opt/indico” in the indico.conf file that will need to be updated as well.
Is there anything else I need to know before doing this?
Python venvs are generally not portable. You should ideally delete /opt/indico/.venv and recreate it and install Indico (and any plugnis you may be using) in the env again (ie pip install indico).

Another alternative is using a bind-mount to kee the physical files still accessible under /opt/indico. And typically indioc-archive (where all uploaded files are stored ) is by far the largest part, you could also just move the that and use a bind-mout or symlink.

Good idea! Actually, moving the archive folder should work fine (just update it in indico.conf accordingly) unless you have SELinux (then it may be a bit of a pain to get things to work)
