Hi,
In the database section of the installation guide it says that "database
sharing" is unsupported. Can someone clarify what is meant by this? Does it
mean that a dedicated instance of the RDBMS (postgres in my case) must be
running solely for the use of foreman? Or simply that a dedicated database
must be created and set aside for foreman within a (potentially) multi-user
RDBMS instance?
The motivation here is I have a postgres HA database cluster and I would
like foreman to make use of it.
Thanks,
Alan
The latter - a dedicated database within a multi-user instance is fine.
The phrasing may have come from when Foreman and Puppet's storeconfigs
feature had compatible schema and could share a single database. This is
no longer the case.
