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.
