Most of these scripts can be customized to run in about 15 minutes. They can also be run in REPORT ONLY mode where they will not perform any actions but simply generate a report. The report will be in plain english and easy to read.

Once you develop confidence in them then they can be turned on to RUN mode where they will perform actions.
