Abstract
A method and computer program product for causing a processor to perform the method are provided. The method includes monitoring a plurality of operating parameters for each of multiple components of a compute node, wherein the multiple components have the same component type, and determining a stress factor score for each of the multiple components, wherein the stress factor score is a function of the plurality of operating parameters. The method further includes reducing use of a first component from among the multiple components, wherein the first component has a stress factor score that is greater than the stress factor score for any of the other components of the same component type. Optionally, the method may prioritize use of each of the multiple components in an order of ascending stress factor score.
