Abstract
Disclosed is a method for archiving provisioning errors that may occur during provisioning of a computing environment having configurable components. The method may comprise distilling a provisioning request, wherein the distilling the provisioning request includes recording, in a provisioning archive, a provisioning request component, and filtering the provisioning request component. The provisioning request component may comprise a component requested to be added to, removed from, and/or updated in the computing environment. The method may further comprise distilling a provisioning target, wherein the distilling the provisioning target includes recording, in the provisioning archive, a target environment, and filtering an existing component of the target environment. Additionally, the method may comprise applying the provisioning request to the provisioning target, including provisioning the target environment, resulting in an updated provisioning target. Furthermore, the method may comprise determining if a provisioning error occurred, and adding the provisioning error, if any, to the provisioning archive.
