Exemplary embodiments for deploying code in a computing sysplex environment are provided. In one embodiment, by way of example only, a system-wide trending mechanism is applied. At least one of an idle time and a low Central Processing Unit (CPU) utilization time of one system in the sysplex environment is matched with an estimated deployment time obtained from at least one of a latest measured period of time and a calculated time trend. A system-wide coordinating mechanism is applied. A staggered code deployment operation is recommended for at least one node of the system at an optimum system time generated from the matching.
