The data files are always stored in the WAR extraction directory. If
you take a look at the applications dir you will find that it
contains an extracted copy of the WAR (only when running, static
files from the WAR are deleted after shutdown). So, you can set the
WAR extraction directory in tomcat to some other directory and the
files will be stored there.
