Machine Options; Event Tracing - ACRONIS BACKUP AND RECOVERY 10 SERVER FOR WINDOWS - UPDATE 3 User Manual

The option defines the fonts to be used in the Graphical User Interface of Acronis Backup & Recovery
10. The Menu setting affects the drop-down and context menus. The Application setting affects the
other GUI elements.
The preset is: System Default font for both the menus and the application interface items.
To make a selection, choose the font from the respective combo-box and set the font's properties.
You can preview the font's appearance by clicking the button to the right.

3.2 Machine options

The machine options define the general behavior of all Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 agents
operating on the managed machine, and so the options are considered machine-specific.
To access the machine options, connect the console to the managed machine and then select
Options > Machine options from the top menu.
3.2.1

Event tracing

It is possible to duplicate log events generated by the agent(s), operating on the managed machine,
in the Application Event Log of Windows; or send the events to the specified SNMP managers. If you
do not modify the event tracing options anywhere except for here, your settings will be effective for
each local backup plan and each task created on the machine.
You can override the settings set here, exclusively for the events occurred during backup or during
recovery (see Default backup and recovery options (p. 50).) In this case, the settings set here will be
effective for operations other than backup and recovery, such as archive validation or cleanup.
You can further override the settings set in the default backup and recovery options, when creating a
backup plan or a recovery task. The settings you obtain in this case will be plan-specific or task-
specific.
3.2.1.1 Windows event log
This option is effective only in Windows operating systems.
This option is not available when operating under the bootable media.
This option defines whether the agent(s) operating on the managed machine have to log events in
the Application Event Log of Windows (to see this log, run eventvwr.exe or select Control Panel >
Administrative tools > Event Viewer). You can filter the events to be logged.
You can override the settings set here, exclusively for the events that occur during backup or during
recovery, in the Default backup and recovery options (p. 50). In this case, the settings set here will be
effective for operations other than backup and recovery, such as archive validation or cleanup.
You can further override the settings set in the default backup and recovery options, when creating a
backup plan or a recovery task. The settings you obtain in this case will be plan-specific or task-
specific.
The preset is: Disabled.
To enable this option, select the Log events check box.
