A system in which computer devices coupled to a network can be automatically configured. Systems information, including the applications on the computer devices and the usage of those applications, is gathered from a plurality of computer devices by way of one or more of an agent and a scout. This information is standardised and stored in one or more databases. A program function is determined from the standardised information. This program function is used to identify two different sets of computer programs installed on a set of networked computer devices being used for the same program function. Then one set has its application uninstalled and the application of the other set installed. This system is useful in ensuring consistency of applications used in an organisation and for ensuring licence compliance. |
