Abstract:
1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying a program executable in a computing device, the program comprising: code that obtains a first plurality of activity level metrics from a plurality of components in a data center; code that computes a baseline aggregate activity level for the data center from the first plurality of activity level metrics; code that obtains a second plurality of activity level metrics from the plurality of components in a data center; code that receives a change request for a change in configuration to the data center; code that computes a most recent aggregate activity level for the data center by summing a number of instances of the second plurality of activity level metrics; code that grants the change request when the most recent aggregate activity level for the data center falls within a predefined range of the baseline aggregate activity level for the data center; and code that denies the change request when the most recent aggregate activity level for the data center falls outside of the predefined range of the baseline aggregate activity level for the data center.
