Disclosed aspects manage a shared pool of configurable computing resources. A triggering event is detected. The triggering event may be related to a resource utilization on a host of the shared pool of configurable computing resources. Based on a set of profile data, it is determined to perform an event response. The event response includes initiating a resource action or initiating an asset action. The resource action may include distributing a set of dynamically-assigned resources. The asset action corresponds to a set of assets (e.g., migrating a set of virtual machines). To change the resource utilization on the host, the event response is performed.
