Restore from immutable repository slower than expected under pressure

Scenario

An emergency restore works, but speed is far lower than stakeholders expected from the immutable copy.

Recommended Resolution Path

1. Validate whether the bottleneck is repository throughput, WAN, or restore target performance.
2. Compare the actual recovery path to documented assumptions.
3. Run targeted restore drills for large systems instead of only small file tests.
4. Use the result to recalibrate recovery time expectations honestly.

Technician Notes

Confirm the result, document the root cause, and record any preventative action worth standardizing.
