Validation
Validation is the last step of a ZopNight remediation: after the cloud change, it reads the resource's live state and checks that it matches what the fix intended. If it does not match, the remediation is marked failed rather than complete. Why it matters: A change the cloud accepted is not proof that the saving actually happened.
