v38 v39 6 6 developed in the [http://www.mcs.anl.gov Mathematics and Computer Science Division] of [http://www.anl.gov Argonne National Laboratory]. 7 7 8 It is based on an operational model in which the specification can be used to validate and optionally change the state of clients, but in a feature unique to bcfg2 the client's response to the specification can also be used to assess the completeness of the specification. Using this feature, bcfg2 provides an objective measure of how good a job an administrator has done in specifying the configuration of client systems. Bcfg2 is therefore built to help administrators construct an accurate, comprehensive specification.8 It is based on an operational model in which the specification can be used to validate and optionally change the state of clients, but in a feature unique to Bcfg2 the client's response to the specification can also be used to assess the completeness of the specification.

It is designed to gracefully cope with manual system modifications.
