-Bcfg2 Snapshots
-===============
-
-.. versionadded:: 1.0.0
-
-This page describes the Snapshots plugin. Snapshots is deprecated, and
-will be removed in a future release.
-
-Before you begin
-================
-
-Make sure you have version 0.5 or greater of sqlalchemy.
-
-On CentOS/RHEL 5
-----------------
-
-* Download a tarball of SQLAlchemy.
-* Extract and build the RPM::
-
- tar xzf SQLAlchemy-0.5.6.tar.gz
- cd SQLAlchemy-0.5.6
- python setup.py bdist_rpm
-
-* Copy the RPM in ``SQLAlchemy-0.5.6/dist/`` to your Yum repository,
- and rebuild the repository using ``createrepo``.
-* Clear the Yum cache::
-
- sudo yum clean all
-
-* Install SQLAlchemy::
-
- sudo yum install SQLAlchemy
-
-* Manage the package in Bcfg2 as you would any other package.
-
-Configuration
-=============
-
-* A database location needs to be added to ``bcfg2.conf``. Three drivers
- are currently supported; mysql, postgres, and sqlite. When using the
- sqlite driver, only the driver and database lines are required.
-
- * For MySQL::
-
- [snapshots]
- driver = mysql
- database = snapshots
- user = snapshots
- password = snapshots
- host = dbserver
-
- * For SQLite::
-
- [snapshots]
- driver = sqlite
- database = /var/lib/bcfg2/var/snapshots.sqlite
-
-* The database needs to be initialized.::
-
- $ bcfg2-admin snapshots init

- .....
- COMMIT
-
-* The Snapshots plugin needs to be enabled for the bcfg2-server (by adding
- Snapshots to the plugins line in ``/etc/bcfg2.conf``). Once done,
- this will cause the the server to store statistics information when
- clients run.
