sysdb
=====
sysdb is a simple database holding information relevant to system deployment,
including
#. a MAC to FQDN mapping
#. whether to boot from local disk or install
#. if installation is requested, which distribution/release to install
#. which environment a system belongs to, and who can manage the environment
#. arbitrary key-value pairs which can be used to store additional information
like the Puppet role of a system.
sysdb runs on the boot server, ie. ``boot00.psi.ch`` (production) and
``boot00-test.psi.ch`` (testing).
