ABSTRACT:
A method for determining the criticality of a device in a multi-path computer configuration comprising the steps of: traversing a directed acyclic graph representing a platform hierarchy; and determining paths within the directed acyclic graph affected by the removal of the device. A computer system comprising a directed acyclic graph data structure representing a platform hierarchy; and a control arrangement for traversing the directed acyclic graph to determining paths therein affected by removal of a device.
