Abstract

A method and system presents a plurality of selections to a user for updating a system configuration from the choices of: an immediate mode, a scheduled queued mode, a queued mode, and an optimized activation mode. The immediate mode activates all change requests immediately. The scheduled queued mode queues all change requests and activates the change requests at a predetermined time. The queued mode queues all change requests and activates the change requests after receiving a triggering event. The optimized activation mode analyzes the system usage to determine and optimally vary the mode among the immediate mode, the scheduled queued mode, and the queued mode.
