ABSTRACT:
Method, system and program product are provided for facilitating operation of a cooling system designed to provide system coolant to one or more electronics subsystems of a computing environment. The technique includes automatically checking at least one coolant loop of the cooling system for a leak. The automatically checking includes isolating the at least one coolant loop from coolant flow through the cooling system and checking for drop in coolant pressure within the at least one coolant loop. Upon detection of a drop in coolant pressure, isolation of the coolant loop is retained thereby allowing operation of the cooling system to continue notwithstanding detection of a leak in the at least one coolant loop.
