Using System State Manager › How SSM Works

How SSM Works

At the heart of SSM are the Relational Data Framework (RDF) tables that store related information about each of your resources.

The RDF stores data about system resources and delivers that data to SSM through SQL queries. The data tables in the RDF keep track of the current and desired states of the system resources, and what actions to take when a resource is not in its desired state.

SSM uses the following tables to manage your system resources:

• Directory table
• Resource tables
• Action tables
• Auxiliary tables
