Title: mk_mysql: More consistent naming of instances
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
The naming of different mysql instances has been simplified.
The item names of the monitored instances are now given by the corresponding sockets
(e.g. an instance using the socket "/var/run/mysql.sock" will be called
"/var/run/mysql.sock").
If no socket can be determined, only one instance will be monitored, using the default
name "mysql".
Previously as a third attempt the <tt>--user=</tt> option found in the output
of <tt>ps -fww -C mysqld</tt>
has been used as instance name. This is not longer considered.
The determination of the sockets themselves is unchanged:
If no sockets are listed in the config file, the socket is determined by the
<tt>--socket=</tt>
option found in <tt>ps -fww -C mysqld</tt>.
If you are monitoring mysql instances that do not use the default item name
"mysql",
a rediscovery is required.
