Media Components; Additional Settings - ACRONIS TRUE IMAGE 9.1 - FOR LINUX User Manual

If you do not have enough space to store the image on your hard disk, the program will
warn you and wait for your decision as to how you plan to fix the problem. You can try to
free some additional space and continue or click Back and select another disk.
When backing up to a diskette or CD-R/RW:
ask you to insert a new disk when the previous one is full.
Alternatively, you can select Fixed size and enter the desired file size or select it from the
drop-down list. The backup will then be split into multiple files of the specified size. That
comes in handy when backing up to a hard disk with a view to burning the archive to CD-
R/RW or DVD+R/RW later on.
Creating images directly on CD-R/RW might take considerably more time than it would on a hard disk.

Media components

The default setting – disabled.
When backing up to removable media, you can make this media bootable by writing to it
additional components. Thus, you will not need a separate rescue disk.
Choose the basic components, necessary for boot and restoring data, on the General tab.
The Acronis One-Click Restore is a minimal addition to your rescue media, allowing one-
click data recovery from an image archive, stored on this media. This means that at boot
from the media and clicking "restore" all data will be silently restored to the original place.
No options or selections like resizing partitions will be possible.
If you want more functionality during restoration, write a standalone version of Acronis True
Image Server for Linux to the rescue disk. Then you will be able to configure the restore
task using Restore Data Wizard.
Under Advanced tab you can select full, safe or both Acronis True Image Server for Linux
loader version. The safe version does not have USB, PC card or SCSI drivers and is useful
only in case the full version does not load.
In case you check Do not place additional components if there is no free space box,
the program will try to write at least basic components to media, short of space.

Additional settings

1. Validate backup archive upon operation completion
The default setting – disabled.
When enabled, the program will check integrity of the just created or supplemented archive
immediately after backup.
To check archive data integrity you must have all incremental and differential backups belonging to the
archive and the initial full backup. If any of successive backups is missing, validation is not possible.
2. Overwrite data on a tape without user confirmation
