Bcfg2
Bcfg2 is a tool that aids in the administration of complex environments. Using its server-side configuration specifiction, Bcfg2:
- Deploys configuration changes
- Reports on deployment status
- Detects configuration deviations
Bcfg2 can be used to describe:
- Single configuration entities (Configuration files, packages, services, etc)
- Full service configurations
- Complex multi-machine configurations with subtle interdependencies
All of this information is synthesized into a form that aids in the communication of system architecture and administrative policies.
Bcfg2 is fairly portable. It has been successfully run on:
- Debian (and Ubuntu)
- RPM-based Linux distributions (Redhat, SuSE, SLES, RHEL, and Mandrake)
- Solaris
