Scheduled tasks
Chapter 9. Scheduled tasks
Acronis True Image allows you to schedule tasks you created, so you won't have to
remember the last time you imaged your disks. It will do this for you to guarantee
the safety of your data.
You can create more than one independently scheduled task.
For example, you can image your work documents daily and back up the application
disk only weekly. This reduces the number of imaging operations and provides
nearly the same data safety.
To create scheduled tasks, you should use the Acronis True Image scheduler.
Run the Add New Task wizard to create a new scheduled task. When the task is
created, you will see its icon in the main window.
To edit the previously created task, click Edit on the toolbar or right-click the task
and select Edit. The editing is performed in the same way as adding.
To delete a task, select it and click Delete on the toolbar or right-click the task and
select Delete.
If any errors occur during the scheduled task execution, its icon will be marked with a warning
sign – the red circle with a cross inside – to attract your attention the next time you run
Acronis True Image. A brief error description will be shown in the left part of the window if
you select the task.

Selecting partitions
In the Partition selection window, you will see the current partition layout. To
select a partition, check the corresponding box. To select all disk partitions, check
the disk box. Then, all the related partitions will be checked. You can also select one
or more hard disks or a random disk/partition combination.
