CFEngine is like that, including being able to differentiate based on
for example time in the policy, some parts will be done only once each
hour (or weekly or daily) some other parts will be done everytime.

The Enterprise version supports verifying jobs success from the policy
hub but it requires the policy to nominate what to report (the hub will
pull down a system's status, it is not push from systems to the hub.)

Hmm, this would be interesting to design towards :

so where to read up on current ability of z/OS JES (?) ability to check
the status for remotely executed jobs ?
