Hi,

In my mysql on my Nagios XI, I got all the time those messages:
Plugin mysql_native_password reported: ''mysql_native_password' is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please use caching_sha2_password instead

Should I do something?

By any chance are you on Ubuntu? Also how often does that error pop up? I don't believe there is anything that you should have to do. That is used in in the mysql initialization and for updating mysql password for Ubuntu. I'll make an issue for this being deprecated.

Hi,

I'm on red-hat. Found this by looking at the log. I don't see any problem... for now.
