I started testing this the other day, as a kind of proof of concept: https://github.com/jimi1283/cobbler/tree/mysql
I am going to go ahead and merge this into master if anyone is interested in testing it. The schema is quite simple, and the general structure should work on just about any SQL database out there: http://pastie.org/4329642 The password is hard-coded in the module right now, so if you change it in the above schema be sure to change it in serializer_mysql.py too. So, what's the goal here? My intention is to enable better HA setups by having the data stored in an alternative backend, possibly even master/master setups. To that end, I will be working on solidifying the mysql/mongo backends for production use with 2.4.0, and possibly others. I'm really interested in adding support for postgresql, especially 9.2 which introduces the native JSON field type. Enjoy! _______________________________________________ cobbler-devel mailing list cobbler-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler-devel
