An apparatus, program product and method of managing computer resources each facilitate concurrent maintenance operations by automatically re-associating existing resources in a computer, when suitable, with appropriate hardware devices installed into the computer after a concurrent maintenance operation has been performed. An existing resource is re-associated with an installed hardware device by updating at least one of a device identifier and a location identifier associated with the resource based upon that of the installed hardware device. A resource identifier for the resource, however, is preserved so that any computer application that relies on the resource can still access the resource without additional manual reconfiguration of the resource or the computer application. Consequently, maintenance operations are substantially simplified and expedited, thereby facilitating system maintenance and minimizing computer downtime.
