Abstract
A method includes various operations and a computer program product causes a processor to perform various operations. The operations may include measuring a level of utilization of a field-replaceable unit in a computing system; determining, for each field-replaceable unit, a current configuration of the field-replaceable unit, wherein the current configuration of the field-replaceable unit has a first designated utilization level; and determining whether the measured level of utilization is greater than the first designated level of utilization. The operations further include identifying, in response to determining that the measured level of utilization is greater than the first designated level of utilization, a second configuration of the field-replaceable unit having a second designated utilization level that is greater than the measured level of utilization of the field-replaceable unit; and applying a feature on demand upgrade to the field-replaceable unit to implement the second configuration.
