A solution is proposed for managing a computing environment. A corresponding method comprises detecting critical commands and applying each critical command and possible following commands to the computing environment by maintaining an unchanged image thereof; a command effect of the application of the critical command on the computing environment is verified according to one or more operative parameters thereof, and the application of the critical/following commands is integrated into the computing environment in in response to a positive result of the verification. A computer program and a computer program product for performing the method are also proposed. Moreover, a system for implementing the method is proposed.

Management of computing environments with verification of command effects

A solution is proposed for managing a database, which comprises one or more data units stored in one or more of a plurality of computing machines. A corresponding method comprises monitoring one or more machine parameters relating to operation of each computing machine over time, monitoring one or more unit parameters relating to operation of each data unit on the corresponding computing machine over time, detecting a relocation condition corresponding to a missing fulfillment of one or more targets according to the monitored unit parameters, and determining a proposed relocation of the data units in the computing machines removing the missing fulfillment of the targets according to the monitored unit parameters and the monitored machine parameters for use in relocating the data units accordingly.
