Maestro Job Scheduler - IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler
If you're using CRON or Windows AT command, you know that they do exactly what you have told them to do. But CRON and AT lack the flexibility. You need to remember the syntax that looks greek to many people. If something goes wron with these basic job schedulers - they tell very little about it and you have no other go than pulling your hair.
Can we take this risk with the large business applications where millions of dollars are involved?
Of course not :)-

Tivoli maestro helps you here.

No, I have nothing against cron but - CRON is a very useful free tool that saves administrators time, but when an enterprise chooses to use CRON instead of a time tested job scheduling software such as Tivoli Maestro , it gives up many benefits - and a significant amount of money saving in the long run.
