8. Use FTP in active mode
The preset is disabled.
Previous versions of the software required usage of passive mode for the target FTP
server and usage of TCP and UDP ports 20 and 21 on the source computer. The current
version has no such limitations: you can use either active or passive mode.
Check this option if the FTP server where the target backup is stored uses active mode
and specify the port number in the FTP port number field.
It is recommended that you change the source computer firewall settings to disable the
Routing and Remote Access Windows service.

7.4.8 Error handling

1. Do not show messages and dialogs while processing ("silent" mode)
The preset is disabled.
With the silent mode enabled, the program will not display interactive windows. Instead,
it will automatically handle situations requiring user intervention. No prompts will be
displayed, including those for inserting removable media or the next tape. If an operation
cannot continue without user action, it will fail. Details of the operation, including errors,
if any, could be found in the operation log.
2. If an error occurs, re-attempt in (minutes)
The preset is enabled.
When the backup location on the network is not available or not reachable, the program
will attempt to reach the location at the specified time interval.

7.5 Creating dynamic disks and volumes

Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise Server must obtain exclusive access to the disks to
perform operations with disks and volumes. This means no other applications can access
it at that time. Please close all other applications that use the disks (such as Windows
Disk Management) before starting the disk conversion and dynamic volume creation
wizards.

7.5.1 Creating dynamic volumes

This operation is available only in Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise Server local
version, including bootable version of this component. Having booted to the Acronis
environment, you can easily prepare the desired dynamic group on bare metal or a
computer with a non-Windows operating system.
The operation supports both dynamic disks and MBR or GPT basic disks. Basic disks will
be converted to dynamic.
All data contained on the basic disk and the basic disk partitioning will be lost. On
dynamic disks, only unallocated space will be used for the new volume.
An MBR basic disk must have at least 1MB of free space at the end of the disk for the
dynamic disk database.
To create a dynamic volume:
1. Close all applications that use the disk(s) on which the volume is to be created.
