1. A method, comprising:
- in a pre-integrated cloud computing system having a compute domain, a network domain, a storage domain, a virtual layer and a management layer, to provide services, the cloud storage system providing redundancy,determining an at risk probability in the compute domain and a first risk index for the compute domain from the at risk probability in the compute domain;
determining an at risk probability for storage volumes in the storage domain and a second risk index for the storage domain from the at risk probability in the storage domain;
determining an at risk probability for storage paths to the storage domain from the compute domain and a third risk index for the storage paths from the at risk probability of the storage paths;
determining an overall at risk probability for a first one of the services using system resources and an overall risk index for the first one of the services from the overall risk probability; and
determining a revised overall risk index after at least two component failures in at least two of the compute domain, storage domain, and storage paths to assist a user in selecting a first one of the at least two component failures to fix first.

Abstract
Methods and apparatus for generating at risk probabilities for a pre-integrated cloud computing system. In one embodiment, a system determines a revised overall risk index after at least two component failures in at least two of the compute domain, storage domain, and storage paths to assist a user in selecting a first one of the at least two component failures to fix first.
