1. A method for handling updates, the method comprising the computer implemented steps of:
- responsive to detecting an update for a data processing system, querying a database to determine an effect of the update on the data processing system, wherein a configuration of the data processing system is used in querying the database; and
responsive to receiving a response from the database, selectively modifying a health status of the data processing system using the response to form a modified health status.

Abstract
A method, apparatus, and computer instructions for handling updates. A database is queried to determine an effect of the update on the data processing system in response to detecting an update for the data processing system. A configuration of the data processing system is used in querying the database. A health status of the data processing system is selectively modified using the response to form a modified health status in response to receiving a response from the database.
