MisuseRepair
Zero traffic proves that a path is unused.Inspect configured and infrequent uses and qualify the observation window.
The new endpoint exists, so migration is complete.Exercise the receiving user’s result with the relevant state and conditions.
Rollback means reinstalling the old binary.Recover data and interface compatibility and the qualified recovery operation.
Keep the old path forever to avoid every risk.Compare continued-support risks and select a bounded disposition with the actual holder.
A file export completes exit.Check retained meaning, identity, rights and the receiving capability.
