Procedure
Read fully before acting.- This is the disaster-recovery copy. If it is stale, the blast radius of a home-rack loss grows by exactly that staleness.
- Restore requires the encryption passphrase, which is NOT stored on any node in this inventory. Confirm you can retrieve it before you need it.
- A completed sync job is not a verified restore — the quarterly drill is what proves this works.
