Abstract

See full text

In a method for minimizing occurrences of hanging escalations in a computer system, a computer determines that a number of escalations are scheduled for simultaneous execution in a time interval in a production environment. The computer divides the time interval by the number of escalations to form a shortened time interval. Moreover, the computer reschedules execution of the number of escalations in the production environment such that a plurality of subsets of the number of escalations execute in a staggered order according to the shortened time interval. A hanging escalation is an escalation that fails to complete, fails to process all data or records that the escalation was to process, or completes beyond an allotted processing time.
