$
How many hours, on average, did it take the users to complete each of those jobs?
What percentage of the original time it took the users to create the jobs do you think it will take to re-create the jobs? (An average is 75% of the original time)
Loss Questions
If the system crashed at the "worst possible time," what percentage of the active jobs the users were working on would you not be able to re-create in time enough to meet client expectations and therefore you lost the job? (An average is around 10%)
How many users (or workgroups) of this server were affected?
Ripple Effect Questions
How many additional users will have to be idle (during paid time) while they wait for certain jobs to be re-created?
What percentage of the jobs that have to be re-created will these people have to wait for?
What percentage of the time it takes to re-create these files will they be idle?
What percentage of the jobs being re-created would be turned in late and therefore were hit with a late fee?
What is the average amount of fines, per job, that will be levied for those jobs that can't be recreated in time?
