in order to allow the agent to download new agents. For security reasons this secret is unique

generated host secret was written to the cmk-update-agent.log. This logfile is not protected and
usually world-readable.
With this secret one can download the current agent from the Checkmk server. Included in that
agent package are the plugin configs which can contain other secrets. (e.g. database
credentials)");
