change the /etc/my.cnf have a datadir=/data under a [mariadbd] section heading
ensure that /data is mounted and has permission for the mysql user (chown mysql: /data)
Run
mysql_install_db -u mysql
set the selinux labels for the /data directory per https://mariadb.com/kb/en/selinux/
Start the mariadb.service as usual.
