Alot of text here: Summary ADDM : Tideway discovery (this scans the network with a ping, nmap, and then login to box and does a basic discovery of some software/hardware). BBCA: Bladelogic for Client Automation: Which can be used on servers too, but does not do everything BSA does: does in depth software and hardware and some licenses and then puts them into the CMDB as relationships, also FDCC compliancy BBSA: Same as above for servers, provisioning servers rapidly, and compliancy
