I don't see what's the big deal? Here is a very simple code snippet which will time out after 10 secs and do whatever one tells it to do.

#!/usr/bin/perl
$SIG{"ALRM"}= sub { print "Alarm detected. Reboot everything [Y/n]:\n"; }; alarm 10;
sleep 200;

If I need oracle in the mix, I'll simply throw in some DBI and do whatever is needed.
