Went to do a test restore of one of my databases and I noticed the dump files over the last few months were all 0kb. Glad I caught it this way and not because I needed to restore. Put it on your calendar, schedule a test restore of your critical stuff a couple times a year. I know y’all are busy but it is worth the time and effort. A backup you can’t actually restore isn’t a backup at all.
Also, if applicable, have a different person perform the restore every time and have them do it just by following the documentation. This way multiple persons have actual experience with the process if the shit ever hits the fan and this also makes sure the documentation is accurate and up-to-date.
