Importing Individual Tasks; Importing Old Options - ACRONIS BACKUP AND RECOVERY 10 - UPGRADING TO STAND-ALONE EDITIONS Manual

1. Change the current folder to the folder where the upgrade tool is installed—by default:
C:\Program Files\Acronis\UpgradeTool
2. Run the following command:
cscript UpgradeTool.vbs Agent
Result:

Tasks that were present in Acronis True Image Echo are converted to Acronis Backup & Recovery
10 tasks and appear in the Backup plans and tasks view.

Each backup task's schedule, items to back up, and backup destination are the same as before;
but to perform further backups, the task will create a new archive (starting from a full backup).

Each backup task is part of a backup plan. You can edit the backup plan to change the task's
schedule or other parameters.

3.3.2 Importing individual tasks

Acronis True Image Echo stores each task as a .tis file. By default, these files are located in the folder
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Acronis\TrueImage\Scripts.
The names of the .tis files are Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs), such as 6AED5F49-7EED-4E3E-
939E-19360A44137F.tib.tis. Each file has the XML format. The <display> tag in the file specifies the
task name as it appears in the list of tasks.
To import a task
1. Determine the file name of the task that you want to import—for example, by examining the
content of the <display> tag.
2. Change the current folder to the one where the upgrade tool is installed.
3. Run the following command, specifying the task's file name:
cscript UpgradeTool.vbs Script -f "C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Application Data\Acronis\TrueImage\Scripts\6AED5F49-7EED-4E3E-939E-
19360A44137F.tib.tis"
As a result, the task is imported as an Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 task and becomes part of a
backup plan.

3.4 Importing old options

The upgrade tool enables you to import the default backup options, default restoration options,
notification options, and event tracing options of Acronis True Image Echo to the default backup and
recovery options of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10.
To import the old options:
1. Change the current folder to the one where the upgrade tool is installed.
2. Run the following command:
cscript UpgradeTool.vbs Options
The old options are imported as follows:

Notifications is imported as Notifications in both Default backup options and Default recovery
options.

options.
