Claim:
1. A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform a method comprising: establishing, by the processor, one or more predetermined positions for a first electronic component in a computer system, the first electronic component having a first electrical connector, the first electronic component being configured to connect with a second electronic component in the computer system, the second electronic component having a second electrical connector; prompting, by the processor, a user to select a target position for the first electronic component from the one or more predetermined positions; receiving, from the user, an input, wherein the input identifies the target position, the input being selected from the one or more predetermined positions; determining, by the processor, a voltage being applied to an electroactive polymer (EAP), the EAP being located on the first electronic component; comparing, by the processor, the voltage to one or more predetermined voltages, each of the one or more predetermined voltages corresponding to one of the one or more predetermined positions, each predetermined voltage being a voltage that causes the EAP to move the first electronic component into the corresponding predetermined position; determining, based on the comparing, a current position of the first electronic component, the current position being the predetermined position that corresponds to the voltage being applied to the EAP; determining whether the first electronic component is in the target position by comparing the current position to the target position; and adjusting, in response to determining that the first electronic component is not in the target position, the position of the first electronic component, wherein the adjusting includes using the EAP to move the first electronic component into the target position.
