Abstract
The present invention provides a method, system, and computer program product for managing automated resource provisioning management systems. In an embodiment, the method begins by receiving a plurality of provisioning operations from a resource provisioning management system. Each of these provisioning operations is linked to a specific job. A determination is then made as to which jobs are to be managed. The jobs are then grouped together and job dependencies are identified. The jobs are then scheduled for execution. At the appropriate time, the jobs are invoked. The jobs are audited as they are being performed.
