Hi
On top of that pretty good rule for automation is - automate any activity which you need to do more than 3 times e.g.
- backups
- restores
- migrations
- monitoring
- log checking

You will need to be aware of those regardless of automation you may choose to implement to avoid doing them manually. Also, automated metric collection tends to be important, and setting appropriate alerts (this include OS system administration scoped stuff like disk space) - regardless of whether you'd want to automated or manually resolve any events raised by those tools.David J.
