We have an AIX server backing up AIX, IRIX, and Solaris clients.  We
        have a mix of production and development users and we see fairly
        frequent configuration changes.  Our solution to the problem is to run a
        suite of daily cron jobs that perform the operations that we don't have
        enough administrators to do manually.  One convention we established
        that has helped is to put the Email address of the "responsible" party
        for each client in the Contact field during node registration, allowing
        our cron jobs to notify the responsible party (and CC the ADSM
        administrators) when a problem or potential problem is detected.

Neat.

Y'know, I bet everyone has their favorite scripts, and cron jobs for
tweaking ADSM.  Is there a repository somewhere where these can be
contributed, collected, and made available?

If one doesn't already exist, I'd consider hosting it.
