      In https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/current/en/manual/appendix/install/db_primary_keys, section “MariaDB/MySQL 8.0+ without mysqlsh” says “Start MySQL with local_infile variable enabled”.

      Current Zabbix documentation inaccurately suggests the necessity of enabling the local_infile MySQL variable for all server migrations. The section "MariaDB/MySQL 8.0+ without mysqlsh" specifically mentions this requirement, which is not applicable and potentially confusing for migrations executed with the server stopped.

      Expected Documentation Update:

      Indication that local_infile is only necessary when the server is running.
      Explicitly indicate that local_infile is unnecessary for migration when the server is stopped, preventing confusion and unnecessary database operations.
