Notes

Changing the datadir location can be done multiple times, as long as it is not restored to the default initial location, (because a symlink is created and can't be switched back, yet).

When using replication, note that the connections from the client server on the haproxy 8306 and mysql 3306 ports need to be open and the sql servers need to communicate on port 3306.
