Abstract
An approach is provided for managing a failure of a critical high availability (HA) component in a HA system. Critical HA components are identified. Categories are assigned to the identified components and weights are assigned to the categories. A current value indicating a performance of a component included in the identified components is obtained by periodically monitoring the components. A reference value for the performance of the component is received. A deviation between the current value and the reference value is determined. Based on the deviation, the component is determined to have failed. Based in part on the failed component, the categories, and the weights, a health index is determined in real-time. The health index indicates in part how much the component having failed affects a measure of health of the HA system.
