Overview

Red Hat Insights must collect some system information for analysis. The information listed in this document is the minimum subset required to determine if a system is affected by any of the issues known to the Red Hat Insights engine.

In the interest of full transparency, the information collected by the client is listed below in subheadings. The actual configuration file used by the Red Hat Insights client is here.
