It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

As in the comments, this will be located at:

/usr/local/mysql/support-files/

If desired, my-small.cnf, my-medium.cnf, my-large.cnf and my-huge.cnf can be copied to /etc/my.cnf.
