The BCFG2 Configuration Management System
===Overview===
The BCFG2 configuration management system uses a folder hierarchy to define configuration elements. At the end of the server setup process, the root of "/var/lib/bcfg2" contains a number of folders, which are associated with a plugin defined in /etc/bcfg2.conf.
* Bundler
** This is the location that Bundles are defined.
* Cfg
** This is where actual configuration files are located. The Cfg folder hierarchy is a standard that defines the folder layouts for any other plugin that create or provide configuration files.
* Metadata
** Metadata is where the definitions for clients(clients.xml) and groups (groups.xml) are located.
* Pkgmgr
** This folder is used for the Pkgmgr plugin. The Packages plugin is used in this configuration so this folder is not used.
* Rules
** This folder is not used.
*SSHbase
This folder is not used. In addition, this documentation covers additional plugins that are used for the Build farm:*TCheetahTCheetah is a templating system which allows the dynamic generation of host files.* PackagesThe packages plugin has enhanced YUM support, so it will be used in lieu of the Pkgmgr plugin* ProbesThis folder is not usedin conjunction with the packages plugin to identify architeccture.
