Backup & Recovery Plan

This is where you list local backups, network backups, tape backups, and put any backup schedules down to paper. Keep this updated. Don’t omit RAID drives while they are not backup and recovery they should still be listed for documentation purposes.
And always remember the goal is to recreate the data and services. Not to put stuff on tape. No matter how you recreate the data or service, those resources are your backup.

Performance Benchmarks

You have done performance benchmarks, haven’t you? Just to get an idea of network traffic, CPU traffic, and RAM usage during business hours & off hours. Nothing fancy, just write what you know.

Installation Notes

Anything special about the install & the vendors that provide it goes here. Kind of an errata section.

Troubleshooting Sequences
