Global Database Settings
========================
.. versionadded:: 1.3.0
Several Bcfg2 plugins, including
:ref:`server-plugins-grouping-dbmetadata` and
:ref:`server-plugins-probes-index`, can connect use a relational
database to store data. They use the global database settings in
``bcfg2.conf``, described in this document, to connect.
.. note::
The :ref:`server-plugins-statistics-dbstats` plugin and the
:ref:`reports-dynamic` do *not* currently use the global database
settings. They use their own separate database configuration.

All of the following options should go in the ``[database]`` section
of ``/etc/bcfg2.conf``.
