<h1>Different Roles</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>There are several roles for our incident response teams at Spearhead Systems. Certain roles only have one person per incident (e.g. support engineer), whereas other roles can have multiple people (e.g. Sysadmins, Solution Architects, etc.). It's all about coming together as a team, working the problem, and getting a solution quickly.</p>
|
|
<p>Here is a rough outline of our role hierarchy, with each role discussed in more detail on the rest of this page.</p>
|

|
|
<h3 id="what-is-it">What is it?<a class="headerlink" href="#what-is-it" title="Permanent link">#</a></h3>
|
|
<p>A Team Leader acts as the single source of truth of what is currently happening and what is going to happen during an major incident. They come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. TL's are also the key elements in a project (boards in DoIT).</p>
|
|
<h3 id="why-have-one">Why have one?<a class="headerlink" href="#why-have-one" title="Permanent link">#</a></h3>
|
|
<p>As any system grows in size and complexity, things break and cause incidents. The TL is needed to help drive major incidents to resolution by organizing his team towards a common goal.</p>

<li>Collect proposed repair actions, then recommend repair actions to be taken.</li>
|

<li>Delegate all repair actions, the TL is NOT a resolver.</li>

<li>Be the single authority on system status</li>

<li>Creating the initial template right after the incident so people can put in their thoughts while fresh.</li>
|

<li>Assigning the post-mortem after the event is over, this can be done after the call.</li>
|

<li>Work with Managers/Support on scheduling preventive actions.</li>

|
|
<h3 id="what-is-it_1">What is it?<a class="headerlink" href="#what-is-it_1" title="Permanent link">#</a></h3>
|
|
<p>A Sysadmin is a direct support role for the Team Leader. This is not a shadow where the person just observes, the Sysadmin is expected to perform important tasks during an incident.</p>
|
|
<h3 id="why-have-one_1">Why have one?<a class="headerlink" href="#why-have-one_1" title="Permanent link">#</a></h3>
|
|
<p>It's important for the TL to focus on the problem at hand, rather than worrying about documenting the steps or monitoring timers. The Sysadmin helps to support the TL and keep them stay focussed on the incident.</p>
|
|
<h3 id="what-are-the-responsibilities_1">What are the responsibilities?<a class="headerlink" href="#what-are-the-responsibilities_1" title="Permanent link">#</a></h3>
|
|
<p>The Sysadmin is expected to:</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Bring up issues to the TL that may otherwise not be addressed (keeping an eye on timers that have been started, circling back around to missed items from a roll call, etc).</li>
|
|
<li>Be a "hot standby" TL, should the primary need to either transition to a SME, or otherwise have to step away from the TL role.</li>
|
|
<li>Page SME's or other on-call engineers as instructed by the Team Leader.</li>
|
|
<li>Manage the incident call, and be prepared to remove people from the call if instructed by the Team Leader.</li>
|
|
<li>Liaise with stakeholders and provide status updates on DoIT (using worklogs and comments), Slack and email/telefone as necessary.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<h3 id="who-are-they_1">Who are they?<a class="headerlink" href="#who-are-they_1" title="Permanent link">#</a></h3>
|
|
<p>Any Team Leader can act as a Sysadmin. Sysadmins need to be trained as an Team Leader as they may be required to take over command.</p>

<h3 id="how-can-i-become-one_1">How can I become one?<a class="headerlink" href="#how-can-i-become-one_1" title="Permanent link">#</a></h3>

<p>A Scribe documents the timeline of an incident as it progresses, and makes sure all important decisions and data are captured for later review.</p>

<p>The incident commander will need to focus on the problem at hand, and the subject matter experts will need to focus on resolving the incident. It is important to capture a timeline of events as they happen so that they can be reviewed during the post-mortem to determine how well we performed, and so we can accurate determine any additional impact that we might not have noticed at the time.</p>

<p>The Scribe is expected to:</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Ensure the incident call is being recorded.</li>
|
|
<li>Note in Slack important data, events, and actions, as they happen. Specifically:<ul>
|
|
<li>Key actions as they are taken (Example: "prod-server-387723 is being restarted to attempt to remove the stuck lock")</li>
|
|
<li>Status reports when one is provided by the IC (Example: "We are in SEV-1, service A is currently not processing events due to a stuck lock, X is restarting the app stack, next checkin in 3 minutes")</li>
|
|
<li>Any key callouts either during the call or at the ending review (Example: "Note: (Bob B) We should have a better way to determine stuck locks.")</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|

<p>Anyone can act as a scribe during an incident, and are chosen by the Incident Commander at the start of the call. Typically the Deputy will act as the Scribe, but that doesn't necessarily need to happen, and for larger incidents may not be possible.</p>

|
|
<p>A Subject Matter Expert (SME), sometimes called a "Resolver" or "Architect", is a domain expert or designated owner of a component or service that is part of the Spearhead Systems service delivery concept.</p>
|
|
<h3 id="why-have-one_3">Why have one?<a class="headerlink" href="#why-have-one_3" title="Permanent link">#</a></h3>
|
|
<p>The TL and Sysadmins are not all-knowing super beings. When there is a problem with a service or a particular system, an expert in that service is needed to be able to quickly help identify and fix issues.</p>

|
<li>Condition: What is the current state of the service? Is it healthy or not?</li>
|
|
<li>Actions: What actions need to be taken if the service is not in a healthy state?</li>
|
|
<li>Needs: What support does the resolver need to perform an action?</li>
|

</ul>
