Baseline inventory lets you track and compare the changes in files and registry keys for different computers. You generate a baseline that identifies the files or registry settings of a standard configuration computer. You can later run the compliance scans on your client computers to compare their current files or registry keys with those in the baseline. The differences between the baseline scan and compliance scan are reported to the Configuration Management Database (CMDB).
A registry baseline task lets you perform the registry baseline scan and generate a baseline that identifies the registry settings of a standard configuration computer.
A registry compliance task lets you perform the registry compliance scan on your client computers to compare their current registry settings with those in the baseline.
