ABSTRACT:
A method and system for managing a plurality of units, wherein the data processing system requires a selected capacity provided by a number of units. The units are dynamically polled to determine a capacity of the plurality of units. The requirement of the data processing system for the output of the redundant units is also dynamically determined. An indication that a condition exists in which at least one of the units should be replaced is generated only if the requirement of the data processing system is greater than the capacity of the units after the next failure of a unit, wherein replacement of a unit is not required unless the hardware or data processing system demand, as currently configured, exceeds the capacity of the units after the next failure of a unit.
