Click on "GAL Online Backup Status" in the top menu bar.
First, look for the block of information with the heading “GAL Online Backup ERROR Log.” It should read “NO ERRORS FOUND”. Second, under "GAL Online Backup Detail Log", a multitude of entries should be listed, detailing what and when was successfully uploaded to the online service. If only one or two entries exist here, report this to Goodin Associates. There likely was a backup error, in spite of the "NO ERRORS FOUND" msg in the ERROR log.
Click on "GAL Online Backup Status" in the top menu bar.
Look for the block of information with the heading “GAL Online Imaging Backup Status.”
If all is well, the information bar will be grey, and will show the most recent Start Update (date/time), End Update (date/time) and Last Run (date).
If no End Update shows, the update is currently running.
If the bar is yellow, then there's been no update in 24 hours. This could be a fluke. Don't worry, but be sure to check again tomorrow.
If the bar is red, there's been no update in 5 days. Call Goodin Associates.
Click on "GAL-PC Tape Backup Status" in the top menu bar.
Look for the block of information with the heading “Tape backup Log.”
The top line in the block should report the time/date of the most recent backup.
The third to last line should report the number of files and directories that were backed up.
The next to last line should report the total bytes written (the size of the backup).
If you see any entry that indicates files that had errors, call Goodin Associates.
See Everyday backup checks for instruction.
Click on "Lobby Docket" in the top menu bar.
Click on the terminal ID you want to run/display.
It should start momentarily, and will scroll if enough cases are scheduled.
Modifications to your scrolling docket sessions are handled in PC JIMS Courts.
