My site has a rather large Perl script that controls the daily housekeeping cycle (storage pool backups, database backups, tape movement, and so on). The script also detects a variety of error conditions and reports them to our operations staff. My management is convinced that we can buy an off the shelf product that will replace 80 percent of the Perl code. Does such a product exist?
In particular, does ServerGraph provide this kind of functionality? Their Web site mentions automation, but does not seem to have any information on the automation features beyond the assertion that they exist.
