BUG#16461303- WARNING ISSUED ABOUT MASTER.INFO WHEN USING MASTER-INFO-REPOSITORY=TABLE Problem: When executing CHANGE MASTER TO on MySQL 5.6 with either MASTER_USER or MASTER_PASSWORD options, MySQL issues a warning: Level: Note Code: 1760 Message: Storing MySQL user name or password information in the master.info repository is not secure and is therefore not recommended. Please see the MySQL Manual for more about this issue and possible alternatives. This appears to suggest that "master.info" is insecure, which may lead the reader to believe that they should use master-info-repository=table instead of master-info-repository=file. However, this warning is issued when using both types of master info repository. Also, the suggestion to see the MySQL Manual is not pointing to any specific section in the Manual for user's convenience. Fix: This Note is changed to specify that master info repository is insecure to store USERNAME or PASSWORD and thence points to the START SLAVE section of MYSQL Manual for reference.
