Okay I understand now. 

So <directories check_all='yes' ...ect... should also be put in agents.conf 
then since if its listed in the ossec.conf it will only be a local check

I tested what you said - it does not produce a error that stops OSSEC from 
working but there is a WARN: dir not found. Ignore. in the ossec.log
