By default the mk_mysql agent plugin is using the /etc/check_mk/mysql.cfg configuration file to load the configuration set in the agent bakery. This file is under control of the bakery and may not be modified by the user locally.
It is now possible to include an optional file that the user is allowed to store and modify locally. This may be useful in case on wants to put the agent under bakery control, but don't want to store the database credentials in the bakery. Instead of that the credentials can be put into this file manually.
The new file is loaded from the same directory as the mysql.cfg and it must be named mysql.local.cfg. When using the default paths, the full path is: /etc/check_mk/mysql.local.cfg.
