Abstract
A system for automatically monitoring database jobs in simple or complex networking environments to ensure that they run successfully. Failed database jobs are examined, corrected if possible, and re-executed. Database administrators are immediately notified of reoccurring database job failures by e-mail, pager notifications, or other alert methods. The amount of manual intervention is greatly reduced as most database jobs are simply corrected and restarted. The risk of data damage or loss due to subsequent jobs running on databases that are not current is reduced.
