Worksheet

Restore drill record

One record in three parts. Part one holds the backup file name, date, storage location and server specification, so a stranger can repeat the drill exactly as written. Part two is a checks table covering row counts per table, sample files opened, login, a test task and scheduled jobs restored from the cron list. Part three records each gap found, its owner and fix date, plus the total restore time measured from the first command to the first successful login.

Name: ______________________   Business: ______________________   Date: ______________
