Noexcuses is a disaster recovery utility. It makes
cron jobs persist when faced with transient remote
errors. It makes cron jobs persist across reboots
of the local cron host. It identifies and runs
cron jobs scheduled while the cron host was down.
It can mirror its state to protect the above from
disk failure. It supports relocation of cron jobs
to another cron host. It lets you report, examine,
cancel, and run outstanding cron jobs. In short,
it eliminates much tedious disaster recovery work.
