Best Practices Related to Developing a Governance Plan
Supplement or modify the following best practices for your own work situations:
• Make sure that you have a governance committee that has a strong supporter
in the role of executive sponsor.

• Keep your governance model as simple as possible while still maintaining its
strength.
• Ensure that you do not make the solution more complex than necessary by
overdesigning it. SharePoint may have a great feature, but that does not
necessarily mean that you need to deploy it, or at least not immediately.
• Ensure that all users with design or Full Control privileges have internalized
your design guiding principles and that content contributors understand your
guiding principles for creating content.
• An effective governance plan should not need to restrict every move; it should
provide guidance to users to ensure that the implementation of SharePoint
Server 2010 remains effective and dynamic over time.

Lesson 1
Principles of Maintenance and Monitoring

When you develop a maintenance and monitoring plan, you should be mindful of
the end requirements. You must understand the goals of maintenance and
monitoring in your organization. This will help you to plan for all of the necessary
aspects of maintaining and monitoring your SharePoint 2010 infrastructure. It will
also help you to meet service-level agreements (SLAs) and manage the change
process.
Objectives
After completing this lesson, you will be able to:
• Describe the goals of maintenance and monitoring planning.
• Explain how to meet the requirements of quality assurance (QA) planning.

Goals of Planning for Maintenance and Monitoring

Key Points
To meet the business requirements of your organization, you should design and
document a maintenance and monitoring plan. The goal of this plan is to enable
you to keep SharePoint 2010 running at optimum performance and perform
proactive maintenance tasks.
Service-Level Agreements
Many organizations issue one or more service standards that specify required
uptime, performance levels, and recovery times. These service standards or SLAs
may exist between departments in the organization to detail the expectations that
one department has of another. Organizations also often use SLAs to detail a
required level of service between the organization and its suppliers, customers, and
partners.
A well-designed maintenance and monitoring plan enables you to meet the SLAs
that affect the SharePoint 2010 environment.
