Don't worry you are not going to loose your job. But such tool will leed to
"structured" pratices manging ones servers.
I think Dan s idea is a nice one. I have seen a demo of HPOpenView. It
provides functionality close to this (an I am sure most of such tools do..).
This will be just an extention of the same thing.
Now Compaq and HP together we could ask Ed Crowley to suggest this to
OpenView team.
