When you install Cloud Manager Orchestration Server, you can optionally point it to a relational database that you can use to audit the work done by the product. There is no relational database management system bundled with the product, but because the Orchestration Server is supported by default on SLES 11 SP2, you can use a PostgreSQL database that ships with SLES 11 and configure it for use with Orchestration Server auditing. If you want to use another database, you must configure it separately for use with the Orchestration Server.
