You must have all incremental and differential backups belonging to the archive and the
initial full backup to check archive data integrity. If any successive backups are missing,
validation is not possible.
Please note: if you are logged in as an administrator and decide to validate the Backup
Server archives, the validation operation will affect all the archives created by all the
accounts at the Backup Server, which can be a very time-consuming process.

Acronis True Image Echo Workstation offers two kinds of archive contents management:
mounting for images and exploring for both images and file-level archives.
This feature is available in Acronis True Image Echo Workstation local version only.
Mounting images using Acronis True Image Management Console is not supported.

mounted.
