Download and install new antivirus/antispyware definitions To be
effective, antivirus and antispyware programs should be equipped with
the latest definitions and signatures. Whenever the Smart Home Server
detects a program lacking the latest definitions and signatures, it issues
an alert.
Most antivirus and antispyware programs put an icon in the Windows
system tray that can be used to download and install the latest defini-
tions and signatures. If you are not sure how to do this, consult the docu-
mentation that comes with the software.
PC has not been backed up for at least seven days To protect
important information, your PCs should be backed up on a regular basis.
Whenever the Smart Home Server detects a PC that has not been backed
up in seven days, it issues an alert.
You should check to see why the scheduled backups have been failing.
The most common reason is that the PC is turned off when the backups
are scheduled. To check the backup schedule:
1
Click Backup and then click the View Backup Status icon to display
the Backup Status page.
2
Locate the PC and click EDIT to display the Backup Settings page (see
Chapter 7,
FIGURE 7-2
).
3
Check the scheduled time. If the PC tends to be off at that time, select a
time when you can leave it on.
4
Click SUBMIT .
Since the PC has not been backed up in at least a week, as a precaution
you might also want to perform an unscheduled backup. The unsched-
uled backup will not affect the backup schedule.
To perform an unscheduled backup:
1
Click Backup and then click the View Backup Status icon to display
the Backup Status page (see Chapter 7,
FIGURE 7-1
).
2
Locate the PC and click BACKUP .
