1. A computer-implemented method performed by at least one processor for excluding inconsistent objects from lifecycle management processing, the method comprising the following operations:

  • identifying a set of objects in a system, at least a subset of the set of objects associated with a lifecycle management process;

    prior to performing the lifecycle management process, determining a consistency status for each object in the subset of objects associated with the lifecycle management process, wherein determining a consistency status for each object in the set of objects associated with the lifecycle management process includes;

    retrieving a list of objects in the system;

    performing a consistency check on each object from the retrieved list of objects; and

    persisting the results of the consistency check for each object;

    performing the lifecycle management process by at least executing at least one lifecycle management operation on each object in the set of objects determined to be consistent;

    generating a log of the objects in the set of objects determined to be inconsistent within the system prior to performing the lifecycle management process;

    determining, for each object included in the log, a handling entity associated with the object for purposes of correcting the inconsistency;

    sending a notification of each inconsistent object to each determined handling entity; and

    performing the lifecycle management process on each inconsistent object after the determined handling entity corrects the inconsistency.
