When did I last test server backups?

Why Tracking Matters
Tasks like test server backups are easy to forget because they're infrequent. A simple log turns a fuzzy memory into a clear record you can trust, helping you avoid unrecoverable data loss during a crash.
The recommended cadence is every month. Track it each time you complete it and you'll always know exactly when you last did it—and when you should do it next.
