Abstract
Determining an unplanned swap event risk level for a storage system includes monitoring for input/output (I/O) errors on each of a plurality of storage devices of a first storage system within a predetermined time interval. A criticality level of the first storage system is determined. A risk level for an unplanned swap event is calculated based on detected I/O errors for each of the plurality of storage devices and the criticality level of the first storage system. The unplanned swap event includes swapping between usage of the first storage system and a second storage system by a computing system. The risk level for the unplanned swap event is provided.
