Checklist

Software health check

Twenty questions about software you already run. It will not audit anything, but it will tell you where to look first, and whether the answer should worry you.

About this file

A self-assessment for software you already run: updates, backups, documentation and how much rests on one person.

What's inside

  • Updates and dependencies, and what is no longer maintained
  • Backups, and whether a restore was ever actually tried
  • Knowledge: how much of it rests on one person
  • A yes / partly / no scale, where the no answers are the result

When to use it

You inherited a system, or you have a quiet suspicion that something is overdue.
