No problem, I've done this kind of thing before. I'll just need to navigate to the right menu options and click a few buttons. Shouldn't be too difficult.

I'm not too sure, but wasn't there a practice question about timeouts and failovers? Maybe it was related to critical service delay?

I'm a bit confused on this one. Is it really just about executing a subset of the activities effectively, or do we need to do all of them?
