Description
Step 3 or 4 (depending on architecture variant) of the instructions for installing the MMS Automation Agent says to "prepare a data directory" (usually /data). However, this is unnecessary for existing deployments which likely already have a data directory that the existing dbpath is in.
As such, this step should be updated to clarify that it is only necessary if such a directory is not already present, for example, the parent directory of an existing dbpath.
This is an issue both in the actual documentation, e.g. https://docs.mms.mongodb.com/tutorial/install-automation-agent-with-deb-package/, as well as on the "Agents" page of the actual MMS UI.
