Setting Up A Display Mode; Configuring Iscsi And Ndas Devices - ACRONIS BACKUP AND RECOVERY 10 ADVANCED SERVER VIRTUAL EDITION - UPDATE 3 User Manual

7. Tasks cannot be scheduled; in fact, tasks are not created at all. If you need to repeat the
operation, configure it from scratch.
8. The log lifetime is limited to the current session. You can save the entire log or the filtered log
entries to a file.
9. Centralized vaults are not displayed in the folder tree of the Archive window.
To access a managed vault, type the following string in the Path field:
bsp://node_address/vault_name/
To access an unmanaged centralized vault, type the full path to the vault's folder.
After entering access credentials, you will see a list of archives located in the vault.

Setting up a display mode

For a machine booted from media, a display video mode is detected automatically based on the
hardware configuration (monitor and graphics card specifications). If, for some reason, the video
mode is detected incorrectly, do the following:
1. In the boot menu, press F11.
2. Add to the command prompt the following command: vga=ask, and then proceed with booting.
3. From the list of supported video modes, choose the appropriate one by typing its number (for
example, 318), and then press ENTER.
If you do not wish to follow this procedure every time you boot from media on a given hardware
configuration, re-create the bootable media with the appropriate mode number (in our example,
vga=0x318) typed in the Kernel parameters window (see the Bootable Media Builder (p. 271) section
for details).

Configuring iSCSI and NDAS devices

This section describes how to configure Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) devices and
Network Direct Attached Storage (NDAS) devices when working under bootable media.
These devices are connected to the machine through a network interface and appear as if they were
locally-attached devices. On the network, an iSCSI device is identified by its IP address, and an NDAS
device is identified by its device ID.
An iSCSI device is sometimes called an iSCSI target. A hardware or software component that provides
interaction between the machine and the iSCSI target is called the iSCSI initiator. The name of the
iSCSI initiator is usually defined by an administrator of the server that hosts the device.
To add an iSCSI device
1. In a bootable media (Linux-based or PE-based), run the management console.
2. Click Configure iSCSI/NDAS devices (in a Linux-based media) or Run the iSCSI Setup (in a PE-
based media).
3. Specify the IP address and port of the iSCSI device's host, and the name of the iSCSI initiator.
4. If the host requires authentication, specify the user name and password for it.
5. Click OK.
6. Select the iSCSI device from the list, and then click Connect.
7. If prompted, specify the user name and password to access the iSCSI device.
