System Configuration Collector (SCC) is yet another configuration collector. It consists of a client and a server part. The client collects configuration data in a structured snapshot, compares the new snapshot with the previous one, and adds differences to a logbook. Then the snapshot and the logbook are converted to HTML for local inspection. Optionally, the data can be sent to a system running the server software. On the server, summaries of the data are generated, and search/compare operations on the snapshots and logbooks are available via a Web interface.
