Question 320
A support service has a recovery procedure but nobody has demonstrated its operation. What approach should the accountable team prioritize?
Explanation
Correct Answer
A rehearsal tests people, dependencies, and restoration steps before real disruption. By contrast, Operational level agreement is relevant when two internal teams keep blaming each other for delays in security ticket handling, not as a substitute for Service continuity rehearsal in this case.
Incorrect Answers
An OLA specifies responsibilities and service expectations between internal supporting functions; the condition under which it applies is that two internal teams keep blaming each other for delays in security ticket handling, unlike the condition in the question, where a support service has a recovery procedure but nobody has demonstrated its operation.
Structured handover transfers current facts, unresolved actions, and accountability across shifts; it helps when high-priority incidents repeatedly lose context between operations teams, whereas the present requirement arises because a support service has a recovery procedure but nobody has demonstrated its operation.
Problem management analyzes root causes and tracks permanent fixes across incidents; that helps with the separate case where recurring incidents are closed individually without eliminating their underlying defect, not with the issue that a support service has a recovery procedure but nobody has demonstrated its operation.
