# OCS Inventory Agent {#module-services-ocsinventory-agent}
|
|
|
|
[OCS Inventory NG](https://ocsinventory-ng.org/) or Open Computers and Software inventory
|
|
is an application designed to help IT administrator to keep track of the hardware and software
|
|
configurations of computers that are installed on their network.
|
|
|
|
OCS Inventory collects information about the hardware and software of networked machines
|
|
through the **OCS Inventory Agent** program.
|
|
|
|
This NixOS module enables you to install and configure this agent so that it sends information from your computer to the OCS Inventory server.
|
|
|
|
For more technical information about OCS Inventory Agent, refer to [the Wiki documentation](https://wiki.ocsinventory-ng.org/03.Basic-documentation/Setting-up-the-UNIX-agent-manually-on-client-computers/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Basic Usage {#module-services-ocsinventory-agent-basic-usage}
|
|
|
|
A minimal configuration looks like this:
|
|
|
|
```nix
|
|
{
|
|
services.ocsinventory-agent = {
|
|
enable = true;
|
|
settings = {
|
|
server = "https://ocsinventory.localhost:8080/ocsinventory";
|
|
tag = "01234567890123";
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This configuration will periodically run the ocsinventory-agent SystemD service.
|
|
|
|
The OCS Inventory Agent will inventory the computer and then sends the results to the specified OCS Inventory Server.
