A similar issue in the agent installer: there is a screen which allows to select which "components to install" and it has a link saying "click here for more information", but the link just points to https://enterprise.mysql.com/docs/monitor/2.2/en/ instead of a related sub-page (see the image above for a similar example in the monitor installer)

In the agent installer, that same page says "Note that if you are using Connector/J or Connector/NET, no plug-in is necessary; they communicate directly with the Enterprise Dashboard". Should this note lists specific versions of the connectors? Otherwise one may think that "any Connector/J or Connector/NET can communicate with the dashboard directly"

Assigning to Andy - Docs team do not have control over the installer or where it links to.

One more small item during agent install (and at the same time merging in the [19 Apr 6:16] comment): "I'm using MySQL Proxy to collect Query Analyzer data (the proxy plugin will be installed)" How about changing this to two check boxes: -------- Tickbox "Activate Query Analyzer" yes/no (default = yes) When this is ticked, a second box should be enabled for tick/untick: Sub/indented Tickbox "Install Poxy Plugin" yes/no (default = yes) -------- And under this the following clarifying text: Note: Connector/J version x.xx or higher & Connector/NET version x.xx or higher do not require the Proxy Plugin: they communicate directly with the MySQL Enterprise Monitor Server/Dashboard. However, if you do not use these connectors (or you are using an older version of them), you will require the Proxy Plugin to enable Query Analyzer functionality.

IMO, the above should be fixed before 2.2 goes GA.

No changelog entry required (pre-release change); since the advice on separate servers also already exists, no other changes made.
