Actually, I don’t think we’ve started the discussion on changing the key as yet :).
My bad. I thought it did seeing the lively discussion on the list :-)
Is there a need to have a different set of policies/processes for an emergency roll vs. a planned roll?
In general, planned operation and emergency (disaster recovery) do have different set of policies and processes but I believe we can come up with something all-in-one. In terms of the mechanics, emergency and planned rollover are the same however, processes, for example, authorization (who gives the green light, in what instances, how it is recorded etc...) and notification (who notifies whom and how) could be slightly different as emergency rollovers might have tighter time constraints depending on the situation.
Is a planned roll a proper subset of an emergency roll?
Yes, I think so. It's just that emergency rollovers would have more provisions. Thanks! Tomofumi
