Can crontab be removed from an AIX system. We had a script that was running on the system. It stopped working. An outside vendor said that crontab does not exist on the system. and that is why it is not running. How can i verify this and get it back on the systems if needed?

set::crontab
Crontab(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Crontab(3)
NAME
Set::Crontab - Expand crontab(5)-style integer lists
SYNOPSIS
$s = Set::Crontab->new("1-9/3,>15,>30,!23", [0..30]);
if ($s->contains(3)) { ... }
DESCRIPTION
Set::Crontab parses crontab-style lists of integers and defines some utility functions to make it easier to deal with them.
Syntax
Numbers, ranges, *, and step values all work exactly as described in crontab(5). A few extensions to the standard syntax are described
below.
< and >
<N selects the elements smaller than N from the entire range, and adds them to the set. >N does likewise for elements larger than N.
! !N excludes N from the set. It applies to the other specified range; otherwise it applies to the specified ranges (i.e. "!3" with a
range of "1-10" corresponds to "1-2,4-10", but ">3,!7" in the same range means "4-6,8-10").
Functions
new($spec, [@range])
Creates a new Set::Crontab object and returns a reference to it.
contains($num)
Returns true if $num exists in the set.
list()
Returns the expanded list corresponding to the set.
The functions described above croak if they are called with incorrect arguments.
