Thank you @DeeAnn. 
I think I may have made my request a little vague. 
I know the documentation and the basic functionality of greenbone. The scans also provide the corresponding results.
My question was rather to what extent you can configure a search in that way that only the OS and application are searched for.
If I only need this information, I don’t have to let the system run with unnecessary detections.
Since the abundance of scan options is enormous, I thought someone could tell me which parameters of a scan just provide this information without having to go through 100K NVTs.
