• It needs to be simple and do this specific task.

Today I have a question for the community. Actually, the question came from my boss with my current customer. As always, the simplest questions seem the hardest to resolve :-). The problem is: there are a number of agents that should run on a daily basis, but every now and then, it happens that something goes wrong (f.e. a design update with an id with insufficient rights) and the agent don’t run.

Of course it is possible to do some agent logging, send mails if an agent ran or gave errors, but is it possible to do the opposite? Receiving messages when an agent DIDN’T run? Are there any agent monitor tools or techniques? Or am I missing something very obvious here? Any ideas?
