Enter the full path to the folder in the Path field. This path will be created on each machine the
policy will be applied to.
 Store each machine's archive in the machine's Acronis Secure Zone
Acronis Secure Zone has to be created on each machine the policy will be applied to. For
information on how to create Acronis Secure Zone, see the Creating Acronis Secure Zone (p. 248)
section.
2. Naming the archives
Data from each machine will be backed up to a separate archive. Specify names for the archives.
The program generates a common name for the new archives and displays it in the Name field. The
name looks like [PolicyName]_[MachineName]_Archive1. If you are not satisfied with the
automatically generated name, construct another name.
If you selected Store all machines' archives in a single location, you have to use variables in order to
provide the unique archive names within the location.
1. Click Add variables, then select
 [Machine name] - substitution for the machine's name
 [Policy name] - substitution for the backup policy's name
As a result, in the Name field the following rule will appear: [Machine name]_[Policy
name]_Archive1
So, if the backup policy named, say SYSTEM_BACKUP will be applied to three machines (say,
FINDEPT1, FINDEPT2, FINDEPT3), the following three archives will be created in the location:
FINDEPT1_SYSTEM_BACKUP_Archive1
FINDEPT2_SYSTEM_BACKUP_Archive1
FINDEPT3_SYSTEM_BACKUP_Archive1
2. Click OK.
The name looks like ArchiveN, where N is a sequence number. If the program finds that the archive
Archive1 is already stored in the location, it will automatically suggest the name Archive2.
7.3.6 Access credentials for location
Specify credentials required for access to the location where the backup archive will be stored. The
user name of these credentials will be considered as the archive owner.
To specify credentials
1. Select one of the following:
 Use the policy credentials
The program will access the location using the credentials of the backup policy specified in
the General section.
 Use the following credentials
The program will access the location using the credentials you specify. Use this option if the
policy credentials do not have access permissions to the location. You might need to provide
special credentials for a network share or a storage node.
Specify:
 User name. When entering the name of an Active Directory user account, be sure to also
specify the domain name (DOMAIN\Username or Username@domain)
