I have installed MySQL Community Server 5.7.28 on a CentOS 7. I have observed that there is an OS level user mysql created during installation. As per our security team, we can have only one operational user on a server. I have checked that the default shell for mysql user is /bin/false & its password is locked. Still we are not allowed to have this user on the server. Can we change the ownership of the files from mysql user to our operational user & then delete the mysql user ?
I am still a novice in mysql. Thanks for the help in advance!
