perl script to check if empty files are created and delete them and run a shell script

I have a local linux machine in which the files are dumped by a remote ubuntu server. If the process in remote server has any problem then empty files are created in local machine. Is there any way using perl script to check if the empty files are being created and delete them and then run a shell script to kill and start the process in remote server?

NAME
asadmin-create-instance, create-instance - creates an application server instance with the specified instance name SYNOPSIS
create-instance [--user admin_user] [-password admin_password] [--host localhost] [--port 4848] [--sysuser sys_user] [--domain domain_name] [--local=false] [--passwordfile filename] [--secure|-s]--instanceport instanceportinstance_name You can create a new instance on a local or remote machine. If on the remote machine an administration server is already running for the specified hostname, then the system defaults to the local hostname. To create the instance locally, not requiring the administration server to be up and running, specify the --local option. The named instance must not exist within that domain. OPTIONS
--user administrative user associated for the instance. --password administrative password corresponding to the administrative user. --host host name of the machine hosting the administrative instance. --port administrative port number associated with the administrative host. --sysuser owner of the domain directory. --domain name of the domain. --local determines if the command should delegate the request to administrative instance or run locally. --passwordfile file containing passwords appropriate for the command (e.g., administrative instance). --secure if true, uses SSL/TLS to communicate with the administrative instance. --instanceport port where the instance listens for requests. OPERANDS
instance_name name of the instance to be created. Example 1: Using create-instance in local mode asadmin> create-instance --domain domain1 --instanceport 8967 --sysuser adminuser server4 Created Instance server4 successfully Where: the server4 instance is created under the domain1 domain. Example 2: Using create-instance in remote mode asadmin> create-instance --sysuser adminuser --user admin --password adminadmin --host localhost --port 4848 --instanceport 8967 server4 Created Instance server4 successfully Where: the server4 instance is created on the remote server for the associated user, password, host, and port.
