Config audits

Sorry if this question has been answered before, but I couldn't find it. I want to compare my running-config and startup-config. If there are any descrepancies I want NCM to send me an email with the node names. There is a build-in pie graph in Orions Config section that lists the descrepancies. I wanted to just set up an alert for that, but couldn't find a way to do that. So I created a "sceduled job" in NCM to compare the last downloaded config (which should be the startup-config most of the time) to the running-config. The problem is the email lists all nodes and the configuration portions that were changed. I just need a brief list of nodes that aren't backed-up. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

You cant setup a condition while using Schedule Jobs option.All you can do is in the "Nodes" tab for setting up condition.So there is no option to setup a condition to say if two config files compared are error free or with error.

Do you know if there is a way to do this in reporter or some component of Solarwinds?

Reading through this thread might give you some insight as well.

I read through this thread and it has been one I have visited before. All my regex has been configured correctly. All my descrepancies are legit. But I have no way of notifying me without sending a huge 20 page report.
