Safe Deployment

Use a predictable release sequence for schema changes.

Standard flow

dbwarden status --database primary
dbwarden migrate --database primary --with-backup
dbwarden history --database primary

For multi-database deployments:

dbwarden migrate --all --with-backup

Recovery checklist

  1. Check lock status
  2. Inspect history and pending state
  3. Decide rollback vs forward-fix
  4. Execute one controlled change
