The SSAC recommends that ICANN define a testing process that emulates a full failover scenario and that successor and emergency registry operators demonstrate their ability to satisfy the testing criteria. |

Recommendation 2 | The SSAC recommends that ICANN preserve operational data about ex-registries. ICANN should define a framework to share such data with the community.
