Acronis True Image Server User's Guide
Chapter 9. Scripting and scheduling
Acronis True Image Server allows you to schedule tasks you created, so you won't
have to remember the last time you imaged your disks. Acronis True Image Server
will do this for you to guarantee the safety of your data.
You can create more than one independent scheduled tasks.
For example, you can image your work documents daily, and backup 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 Acronis True Image Server 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 next time you run Acronis
True Image Server. A brief error description will be shown in the left part of the window, if you
select the task.
