Changing User Profiles - ACRONIS TRUE IMAGE ECHO - ENTERPRISE SERVER User Manual

specify backup location, quotas and time limits for this user in Add User Profile Wizard

windows. Use the default backup location, quotas and time limits or make specific settings

for the new user. If you specify a new path to backup location for the new user, a new

backup location will be created.

To add another administrator, first add this person's local or domain account to the

AcronisBackupServerUsers group. Then click Set up User profiles -> Add, select the

user name and choose Create user with administrator's rights on the next page.

An administrator can manage all archives on the backup server regardless of their owner,

while a common user can only backup or restore his data from the backup server. An

administrator has no user profile, in other words, the administrator is not assigned a

backup location, quotas and time limits like common users are and uses the administrator

profile for both remotely and locally controlled backups.

4.5.4 Changing User profiles

You might need to change a user profile that is already set. To do so, select the user and

click Edit. The Edit User Profile Wizard will guide you through the same selections, as

the Add User Profile Wizard, except administrator's or user's rights. To change the

rights, you will have to delete the user profile and then add the user again with the new

rights.

Changing the user's backup location will move all existing and redirect future backups,

performed by the user, to another folder (device, etc). As moving files can take a lot of

time and system resources, it is recommended that you schedule this operation for the

time when the backup server computing load will be minimal. You can do it in the Start

Parameters window. To complete configuring the profile, click Finish in the final

summary window.

To change a user's backup location within the same device, you must have at least as

much free space on the device as the user's archives occupy because the archives will

first be copied to the new location and then deleted from the old place.
