Abstract

A computer-implemented method includes receiving diagnostic data about a plurality of operating system (OS) memory units of a distributed computing system. The method further includes defining a failure state for predicting whether at least one of the plurality of OS memory units will experience a failure. The method further includes predicting whether the at least one of the plurality of OS memory units will experience the failure based at least in part on the failure state and the diagnostic data about the plurality of OS memory units. The method further includes causing the at least one of the plurality of OS memory units predicted to experience the failure to be replaced with at least one replacement OS memory unit without impacting a namespace availability of the distributed computing system.
