  5. postmortem Feb 20, 2026, 06:41 PM UTC

    ## **Summary** Customers in the Prod2, Prod3, and EU production clusters experienced page load errors when accessing Team Settings, Efficiency Profiles, and Efficiency Insights during a limited window on February 12, 11:30 PM PST to February 13, 2:21 AM PST. No customer data was lost. Data ingestion, processing, and other core product capabilities remained fully operational throughout the incident. SEI 1.0 customers were not impacted. ## **Root Cause** During a production deployment, Harness team identified a process bug in the migration step. As a result, the application and database schema became temporarily out of sync. This schema mismatch caused specific pages \(Team Settings, Efficiency Profiles, and Efficiency Insights\) to fail to load properly. ## **Impact** The following functionalities were impacted during the incident window: * Team Settings * Efficiency Profiles * Efficiency Insights Users attempting to access these areas experienced page load errors. **Duration:** February 12, 11:30 PM PST – February 13, 2:21 AM PST ### What was not impacted? The following systems and capabilities remained fully operational: * Data ingestion and processing * Productivity Insights * BA Insights * AI Insights * Integrations * Org tree and other metadata operational flows * Customers using SEI 1.0 No customer data was lost. ### **Remediation** The issue was resolved by executing the required database migration procedure in the production environment, restoring synchronisation between the application and database. ## **Action Items** To prevent recurrence and strengthen reliability, we are implementing the following improvements: #### 1. Full Automation of Database Migrations All production database migration steps will be integrated into our CI/CD deployment pipeline, eliminating manual execution and reducing the risk of human error. #### 2. Functional Automation and Monitoring We are converting schema validation into automated functional test coverage. This ensures that any application–database mismatch is detected immediately during deployment. #### 4. Strengthened Deployment Checkpoints We are enhancing our post deployment automation to detect and prevent such issues.
