Why each option
A major problem review is a holistic retrospective conducted after resolving a significant problem, covering all aspects of the incident and response to drive improvement. ITIL requires it to examine both successes and failures.
Reviewing only what was done correctly is insufficient - a major problem review must also capture failures, prevention strategies, and improvement opportunities.
Omits reviewing what was done correctly and future improvement opportunities, both of which are required components of a complete major problem review.
Excludes how to prevent recurrence, which is a critical objective of the major problem review aimed at reducing repeat incidents.
ITIL specifies that a major problem review must examine all four areas: what was done correctly to reinforce good practice, what was done incorrectly to identify failures, how to prevent recurrence to reduce future impact, and what could be done better to enable continual service improvement.
