Back to collectionThree Backup Machines for a Ceremony Rehearsal
Background: Signing preparations had reached their final operational stage, and the team needed to make sure the demonstration equipment would not become a variable on the day. Today: At the meeting, the team rehearsed the signing sequence and prepared three demonstration machines as backups. Impact and next: The rehearsal and equipment redundancy gave the ceremony room to recover from a failure and made preparations more resilient than relying on the main machine alone.

Background: Signing preparations had reached their final operational stage, and the team needed to make sure the demonstration equipment would not become a variable on the day. The meeting was not about whether to demonstrate, but whether the event could continue if something failed.
Today: At the meeting, the team rehearsed the signing sequence and prepared three demonstration machines as backups. Some checked the switching order item by item; another person suggested loading the display content onto the backup machines in advance, so a version mismatch would not surface during the event. The team added that check to the handoff list.
Impact and next: The rehearsal and equipment redundancy gave the ceremony room to recover from a failure and made preparations more resilient than relying on the main machine alone. But the backup contents still needed to be confirmed machine by machine. The team planned to finish that check, then let A-Zhen address the last known issue in the demo build.
