master_info_repository
relay_log_info_repository
The use of the system variables master_info_repository and relay_log_info_repository is now deprecated, and a warning message is issued if you attempt to set them or read their values. The system variables will be removed in a future MySQL version. These system variables were used to specify whether the replica’s connection metadata repository and applier metadata repository were written to an InnoDB table in the mysql system database, or to a file in the data directory. The FILE setting was already deprecated in a previous release, and tables are the default for the replication metadata repositories in MySQL 8.0.
