Introducing Red Hat Asset Discovery as a Reporting Tool
What is Red Hat Asset Discovery?
The Asset Discovery tool is an official Red Hat product that specialized in inspection and reporting of Red Hat technologies in an environment. It is designed to find, identify, and report environment data, or facts, such as the number of physical and virtual systems on a network, their operating systems, and other configuration data. In addition, it is designed to find, identify, and report more detailed facts for some versions of key Red Hat packages and products for the IT resources in that network.
