Writing a runbook

Every runbook should answer, in order:

  1. When to use it — trigger conditions.
  2. Expected outcome — what "done" looks like.
  3. Steps — numbered, copy-pasteable commands.
  4. Rollback — how to undo step 3.
  5. Verification — how to confirm success.
  6. Owner — who maintains this runbook.

Runbooks are tested

If a runbook was not executed in the last 6 months, schedule a drill. Untested runbooks are fiction.
