Database and backup evidence

Register an instance, capture a run and review restore-test evidence.

Step by step

  1. Register Database Database Administrator

    Database Administrator names the database, records its engine and version, and connects the host asset and owner. The asset leads the team to the affected service.

    • Connects database identity to host and owner.
    • Updates Database instances, Assets, People
  2. Record Backup Run Database Administrator

    Database Administrator records the run number, linked database, times, byte size and current outcome. A failed result stays visible even if a later run succeeds.

    • Adds a run under the correct database.
    • Updates Backup runs, Database instances
  3. Verify Backup Evidence Backup Reviewer

    Backup Reviewer checks the restore-test evidence for the same run before its date is recorded; a completed run with that evidence moves to verified. The reviewer relies on an actual test record rather than assuming completion means recoverability.

    • Records the verified outcome after review.
    • Updates Backup runs
