Resolving resource overload

A method, apparatus and article of manufacture for Solving congestion in an overcrowded data processing environment. The method includes measuring the resource usage of each of the many virtual machines in each of at least a hypervisor in a computing environment, wherein detecting a resource overload in a hypervisor of at least one detecting at least one operation which is carried out for at least one of the many virtual machines in the hypervisor, to resolve the resource overload, thereby increasing the values ​​of the virtual machines in operation, and sending a command to the hypervisor, to output the at least one operation.
