All modern enterprises rely completely on the continual correct execution of hardware and software resources that constitute the information technology (IT) infrastructure environment for the business. At the same time, hardware and software resources continually evolve, and the enterprise must often make changes to its infrastructure to incorporate the new or updated hardware and software resources. These changes are risky, and failure to properly execute the changes can result in infrastructure roll-backs and other failure modes that are often very disruptive to the enterprise. A guidance system for changes in infrastructure increases the likelihood of successful implementation of the changes. In some implementations, for example, the guidance system provides clear guidelines and checklists that depict success criteria, along with a scoring interface that pro-actively indicates the factors that can go wrong, and how to mitigate and plan for the factors in advance.

The electronic device includes: a USB interface, including a first power wire and a signal wire, in which the USB interface is configured to receive a power signal via the signal wire, when the USB interface is coupled to a second electronic device, the first power wire is configured to output the power signal received to the second electronic device, and the signal wire is configured to acquire a voltage of a power wire of the second electronic device; a controller, configured to acquire the voltage of the first power wire and a voltage of the signal wire in the USB interface through a coupling between the USB interface and the second electronic device, to determine whether the interface coupling is abnormal according to the voltage difference.

Various technologies described herein pertain to controlling reconfiguration of a dependency graph for coordinating reconfiguration of a computing device. An operation can be performed at the computing device to detect whether an error exists in the dependency graph for a desired configuration state. The dependency graph for the desired configuration state specifies interdependencies between configurations of a set of features. An error can be detected to exist in the dependency graph when the desired configuration state differs from an actual configuration state of the computing device that results from use of the dependency graph to coordinate configuring the set of features. Feedback concerning success or failure of the dependency graph on the computing device can be sent from the computing device to a configuration source. The dependency graph can be modified (by the computing device and/or the configuration source) based on whether an error is detected in the dependency graph.
