The 'no documentation' card indicates that the steps on how to recover are not (physically) available. Recovery can be a stressful time, in particular if business data is involved or availability targets may be missed. An understandable and tested playbook for recovery is a great tool for injecting calm into this situation. For larger setups, it may even be vital in case the engineer on call - at 3am on a Sunday, naturally - needs to recover a system that they do not develop themselves. Printed documentation is relevant in particular if your system that contains the documentation on how to recover from backup itself needs to be recovered.

Hi @cburger-scheidlin,
thank you very for your idea!
From our point of view, the printed documentation is implied in Recovery-Ace "We have no disaster recovery plan". Although, you are right, the physical presence of the docu is not made explicit.

What do you think about rephrasing the Recovery-Ace card?
