title: Debezium - MySQL manually change binlog position from connect-offsets
body: <p>I have a running debezium setup for doing CDC from MySQL. Now I want to create one more MySQL connector for another MySQL server. But I don't want snapshot for existing data, I want to start the debezium new connector from a specific file and position. </p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>I read some questions from stackoverflow, they told to manually insert the record to <code>connect-offsets</code> topic. But if I do this what will happen to my existing setup? </li>
  <li>On a test server, I tried to set the above solution, but it was not working. </li>
  </ol>
  
  <pre><code>kafka-console-producer --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic connect-offsets
  &gt;{"file":"mysql-bin.000002","pos":2012}
