MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT MANAGEMENT
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for assessing environment specific maintenance actions, comprising:
- identifying a maintenance update for a specific environment including one or more computer systems, wherein the maintenance update addresses a known problem;
applying factors to determine an assessment index for the known problem as a function of the specific environment, wherein the assessment index indicates a level of installation criticality relative to the specific environment; and
outputting an installation recommendation for the identified maintenance update in response to determining the assessment index.
