I am so screwed because I have no clue what is happening on most of the servers. You see I am a dba and was tasked with this "side" project because I new unix shell scripting. I was given a server list and told to create an emergency shutdown script that will bring the servers down quickly, but not painfully like a recent power failure did. I still do not know why this was not assigned to syseng. (We are way under-staffed in syseng).

its a matter of how much pressure you can create.
how much you can force other depts in the company to give you the info, or how much you can sustain when they dont, and your script destroys their data
on a side note, try your best, and ask for money :P
