NAME
SCR – System Configuration Repository
DESCRIPTION
The System Configuration Repository (SCR) extracts a static snapshot
of a system's configuration by request and/or by schedule, and stores it
as a record in SCR persistent repository. Configuration information is
extracted from systems using the Desktop Management Interface
(DMI) program routines. Tools are available to identify differences
between records stored in the repository. Configuration snapshots will
include all relevant configuration information covered by HP-UX
System Management Information Format (MIF) and HP Software MIF.
SCR consists of seven components: Configuration Management, Data
Management, Filter Management, Tag Management, Presentation,
Repository and Log.
