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 tables store the names of all resource tables and the name of the action table associated with each resource table.
- Resource tables store information about the status of each resource.
- Action tables determine the action SSM takes to change a resource from its current state to its desired state.
- Auxiliary tables store status information about resources that reside outside of the local system.
