And consider CA-7 integration with it's companion software CA-11 (automated restart mgmt) interface. IBM/Tivoli Workload Scheduler (TWS) is also a viable candidate, as well as others. I'd say each/many solutions have strengths and weaknesses to each client's perspective, that being technical and aside from any emotional interests or lack thereof. Adequately, a given prospective client's ranking of feature/function would help determine what's important to a given enterprise.
