Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates determining the effects of a temperature variation in a computer system. The system operates by systematically varying the flow of a coolant through the computer system to produce a temperature variation in the computer system while the computer system is operating. While this temperature variation is taking place, the system monitors the computer system to determine effects of the temperature variation on the computer system.
