The default database is SQLite, which is a daemonless, zero-config database. But you could instead
choose to use something like postgresql for greater scalability and remote access in the
hierarchical/service node case. To use a different database or a different location, create
the file /etc/xcat/cfgloc. The first line of the file should contain something like one of the examples
below:
the file /etc/xcat/cfgloc.
See the appropriate xCAT docuementation for the format of the file for the database you choose.
The following example is for PostgreSQL:

=item SQLite:/var/xcat/cfg
=item SQLite:/var/xcat/cfgloc
=item Pg:dbname=xcat;host=<mgmtnode>|<pguserid>|<pgpasswd>
=item Pg:dbname=xcat;host=<mgmtnode>|<pgadminuserid>|<pgadminpasswd>
where mgmtnode is the hostname of the management node adapter on the cluster side
where mgmtnode is the hostname of the management node adapter on the cluster side, and the pgadminuserid and pgadminpasswd is the database admin and password.
