Local database

SUM uses a local SQLite database to store application state and operational data, including:

  • Server records

  • Firmware baseline records

  • Job records

  • Activity records

  • Inventory information

  • Encrypted iLO credential data

The database location is defined in the user.yaml file:
database:
  path: "data/sum.db"
  backup_path: "data/backups"
  max_backup_count: 10
If the database path is relative, SUM resolves it from the installation root directory.
