Chapter 6 of 6

Confirm the result#

Inspect the wrapper output once. It must report matching secondary and restored-primary paths. Each result must match the regional contract and report sensitiveInputPresent: false.

After implementation#

The service continuity owner keeps the runbook current. The platform owner maintains the scope and regional contract. The routing owner maintains the customer controls.

Keep the secondary path deployed. End temporary access through the customer process. Record the rehearsal outcome in the approved change record. Infrastructure and policy changes use the approved CI/CD workflow.
