DS10.2:
DS 10.2 Problem Tracking and Resolution
Control Objective:
The problem management system should provide for adequate audit trail facilities that allow tracking, analyzing and determining the root cause of all reported problems considering:
- 1. • All associated configuration items
- 2. • Outstanding problems and incidents
- 3. • Known and suspected errors
Identify and initiate sustainable solutions addressing the root cause, raising change requests via the established change management process. Throughout the resolution process, problem management should obtain regular reports from change management on progress in resolving problems and errors. Problem management should monitor the continuing impact of problems and known errors on user services. In the event that this impact becomes severe, problem management should escalate the problem, perhaps referring it to an appropriate board to increase the priority of the request for change (RFC) or to implement an urgent change as appropriate. The progress of problem resolution should be monitored against SLA.
