SCR Overview Additional Uses of SCR Change Management SCR can complement your system change management process by keeping good records of changes and alerting you to unplanned changes. • You can configure SCR to automatically take periodic snapshots. • You can take snapshots whenever you want them. • You can tailor reports to compare the current system state to previous states. • You can generate records of all reports. Use the scrupdate, scrconfig, and scrhist commands to perform change management, as follows: 1. Complete the initial configuration steps described in this chapter. 2. Take an initial snapshot of the systems as they are, to provide a base for detecting future changes: # scrupdate -a 3. Set SCR to collect data weekly or as often as you wish: # scrconfig -i lw 4. Have SCR email a system history report to you. (Remember that SCR will not store a snapshot if the node has not changed since the last snapshot.) # scrhist 5. When you receive the email, order a scrdiff report on the system nodes that showed differences, to see what they are. # scrdiff node1:time node2:time Chapter 2 31
