Abstract
According to an aspect of the present invention, the dependency information of software components implementing an enterprise application, is used to minimize the down time of the components when applying patches. In an embodiment, all the software components are shut down before applying patches. The patches are then applied and the components are started in a dependency order starting from an independent component. The down time is reduced as a result. According to another aspect, the shutdown also is performed in the reverse of the dependency order. The shutdown and starting are performed using recursive logic.
