Rollback

Return to the previous verified package and configuration without erasing audit evidence.

Rollback set

  • previous verified wheel
  • previous validated configuration and SOPs
  • deployment manifest and checksums
  • state/audit backup if schema compatibility requires it
  • reviewed scheduler definitions

Procedure

  1. Pause scheduled collection through the approved deployment procedure.
  2. Capture current failure evidence.
  3. Restore the previous package and matching configuration.
  4. Validate configuration.
  5. Run one dry-run cycle.
  6. Verify both audit backends.
  7. Resume the timer and verify the next cycle.

Preserve evidence

Do not delete failed-release audit events. Store rollback evidence alongside the change record.
