Collaborative infrastructure update scheduling
First Claim
1. A method to manage update operations for an infrastructure resource, the method comprising:
- identifying, by one or more processors and from a calendar of scheduled attendees to a future meeting, a time, date, and meeting location of the future meeting, wherein a client device is scheduled for use at the meeting location during the future meeting;
identifying, by one or more processors, an infrastructure between the meeting location and a hardware resource, wherein a predetermined feature of an infrastructure resource has been designated as being required for accessing the hardware resource during the future meeting, wherein the infrastructure resource is a network system that connects a client device to a server, wherein the server comprises the hardware resource, and wherein the server has been predetermined to be required for the future meeting;
determining, by one or more processors, whether the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource is scheduled for updating during the time and date of the future meeting at said meeting location;
in response to determining that the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource is scheduled for updating during the time and date of the future meeting at said meeting location, rescheduling, by one or more processors, said updating of the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource;
determining, by one or more processors, a level of detriment that will occur to the future meeting if the future meeting proceeds without the updating of the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource, wherein the level of detriment is defined and caused by a reduction in a quality of data received from the hardware resource caused by not updating the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource, wherein the level of detriment to the future meeting is based on a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) of the hardware resource that is needed during the future meeting, and wherein the hardware resource is a portable resource;
in response to determining that the level of detriment exceeds the KPI,adjusting, by one or more processors, a schedule for the updating of the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource;
issuing, by one or more processors, instructions to move the portable resource from said server to another server;
in response to determining that the level of detriment does not exceed the KPI,updating, by one or more processors, the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource; and
delaying maintenance of the predetermined hardware resource.

Abstract
A method, system, and/or computer program product manages update operations for a hardware resource. A time, date, and location of the future meeting for which a predetermined feature from a hardware resource has been designated as being required for the future meeting is retrieved from a calendar. A determination is made as to whether or not the predetermined feature of the hardware resource is scheduled for updating during the time and date of the future meeting at said location. A level of detriment that will occur to the future meeting if the future meeting proceeds without the updating of the predetermined feature from the hardware resource is determined. A schedule for updating the hardware resource is then adjusted according to the level of detriment that will occur to the future meeting if the future meeting proceeds without the updating of the predetermined feature from the hardware resource.

1. A method to manage update operations for an infrastructure resource, the method comprising:
-
identifying, by one or more processors and from a calendar of scheduled attendees to a future meeting, a time, date, and meeting location of the future meeting, wherein a client device is scheduled for use at the meeting location during the future meeting; identifying, by one or more processors, an infrastructure between the meeting location and a hardware resource, wherein a predetermined feature of an infrastructure resource has been designated as being required for accessing the hardware resource during the future meeting, wherein the infrastructure resource is a network system that connects a client device to a server, wherein the server comprises the hardware resource, and wherein the server has been predetermined to be required for the future meeting; determining, by one or more processors, whether the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource is scheduled for updating during the time and date of the future meeting at said meeting location; in response to determining that the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource is scheduled for updating during the time and date of the future meeting at said meeting location, rescheduling, by one or more processors, said updating of the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource; determining, by one or more processors, a level of detriment that will occur to the future meeting if the future meeting proceeds without the updating of the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource, wherein the level of detriment is defined and caused by a reduction in a quality of data received from the hardware resource caused by not updating the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource, wherein the level of detriment to the future meeting is based on a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) of the hardware resource that is needed during the future meeting, and wherein the hardware resource is a portable resource; in response to determining that the level of detriment exceeds the KPI, adjusting, by one or more processors, a schedule for the updating of the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource; issuing, by one or more processors, instructions to move the portable resource from said server to another server; in response to determining that the level of detriment does not exceed the KPI, updating, by one or more processors, the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource; and delaying maintenance of the predetermined hardware resource. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6)

7. A computer program product for managing update operations for a hardware resource, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program code embodied therewith, the program code readable and executable by a processor to perform a method comprising:
-
identifying, from a calendar of scheduled attendees to a future meeting, a time, date, and meeting location of the future meeting; identifying an infrastructure between the meeting location and a hardware resource, wherein a predetermined feature of an infrastructure resource has been designated as being required for accessing the hardware resource during the future meeting, wherein a client device is scheduled for use at the meeting location during the future meeting, wherein the infrastructure resource is a network system that connects a client device to a server, wherein the server comprises the hardware resource, and wherein the server has been predetermined to be required for the future meeting; determining whether the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource is scheduled for updating during the time and date of the future meeting at said meeting location; in response to determining that the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource is scheduled for updating during the time and date of the future meeting at said meeting location, rescheduling said updating of the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource; determining a level of detriment that will occur to the future meeting if the future meeting proceeds without the updating of the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource, wherein the level of detriment is defined by a reduction in performance to data received from the hardware resource caused by not updating the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource, wherein the level of detriment to the future meeting is based on a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) of the hardware resource that is needed during the future meeting, and wherein the hardware resource is a portable resource; in response to determining that the level of detriment exceeds the KPI, adjusting, by one or more processors, a schedule for the updating of the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource; issuing, by one or more processors, instructions to move the portable resource from said server to another server; in response to determining that the level of detriment does not exceed the KPI, updating, by one or more processors, the predetermined feature of the infrastructure resource; and delaying maintenance of the predetermined hardware resource. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)
