Abstract

A computer-implemented mechanism is provided that monitors usage of one or more computing resources within a set of computing components relative to a received workload. The mechanism calculates a maximum workload for the set of computing components from the monitored use of the computing resources within the set of computing components and determines an available overhead between the calculated maximum workload for the set of computing components and a current workload being performed by the set of computing components. The mechanism selects one or more maintenance tasks for the set of computing components, the total workload of the selected maintenance tasks being less than the determined available overhead.
