Managing confidence levels in a computing system

Abstract

A method for managing confidence levels in a computing system is provided. The method comprises determining a first confidence level associated with a first operation performed in the computing system. The first confidence level indicates probability that the first operation was performed successfully and is calculated based on attributes of one or more components in the computing system. Once the first confidence level is determined, the first confidence level is compared to a confidence threshold for the first operation. If the first confidence level is less than the confidence threshold, a first remedial action is taken to raise the first confidence level.
