DSA collects information about the following aspects of a system:

• Network interfaces and settings
• Performance data and details for running processes
• Hardware inventory, including PCI & USB information

• Event logs for the operating system, ServeRAID controllers, and service processors

Additionally, DSA creates a merged log that includes events from all collected logs. DSA also can compare the firmware configurations on a server to those from UpdateXpress.
