Priority Date Problem Comment/Completion Notes
Fix-It Priorities
Memo
You determine the priority of each task. You may wish to assign different priorities to the
items on this list. Note that this is a 4-point scale. Here are some guidelines for assigning
priorities. Most desktop issues are priority 3 or 4.
Priority 1: These items are of Critical Importance. Until this is fixed, a system is
down and the company is losing money. E.g., server will not boot up.
This is an emergency.
Priority 2: High Priority – Very Important. Until this is fixed, work is being
interrupted or not flowing the way it should. Some equipment or
sofware is unusable. Affects productivity.
Priority 3: Medium Priority – Important. A problem needs to be fixed but work
can continue.
Priority 4: Low Priority – Annoying. These are things that should be fixed while
doing other work or when everything else has been completed.
Please use these criteria when assigning new tasks. Note that you will never “assign” a
Priority One. Priority One tasks assign themselves when an emergency happens.

*A “Shared Printer” is one that is physically attached to a computer (server or workstation) and shared on the domain/network. This is
managed very much like a data share. This is different from a Network Printer, which is connected directly to the network. Generally
speaking, users can print directly to Network Printers. If you have a large enough printer demand, you may manage a Network Printer
through a server, in which case it appears to users as a Shared Printer. This is becoming less useful as printer memory and self-
management increases.

Backup Procedures
Backup Procedures for: ______________________
Morning Procedures
The backup should be compeleted when you arrive in the morning. If the tape drive has
an eject feature, the tape may be ejected.
1) Remove tape from tape machine. Put in new tape
2) Log: On the backup Log, note the tape number and related job information.
Tape Rotation
Tapes are not labeled “Monday”, “Tuesday”, “Wednesday”, etc. They are labeled by number. We begin
the rotation with the lowest number and use the next-highest number each day. If you always keep 7-10
tapes in rotation, you will minimize the number of times each tape is used. This increases the probability
that a backup will be successful.
The tape you remove on … Goes to … And is returned on . . .
Monday Offsite Thursday or later
Tuesday Offsite Friday or later
Wednesday Offsite Monday or later
Thursday Offsite Tuesday or later
Friday Offsite Wednesday or later
End of Month
For the lasat backup of each month, use the lowest-numbered available tape (if you used the tape in the last
few days it is “not available” for this). When the last backup of the month is finished, label the tap “End of
Month __________” (fill in the month). Take this tape offsite permanently and never use it again. Each
month you will have one “end of month” tape. The December tape is also End of Year.
Be sure to put the administrator password on the End-of-Month tape as you will need it to restore in case of
a disaster.
These end-of-month tapes become your ultimate safety cushion in a disaster. They are also a snapshot of
your business and may be handy for financial records, legal records, etc.
Test Restore: At the beginning of each month, it is good practice to take your last backup tape and restore
a few files to a temporary directory (you can delete them later). This keeps you familiar with the restore
procedure and verifies that you have a working backup.
