Creating a bootable media
By using bootable media, you can recover a corrupted operating system or an entire machine from a
disk or volume backup. Accordingly, we highly recommend creating a bootable media at this point. If
you are planning to do only file-level backups, you need not create bootable media.
1. Start Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.
2. In the welcome screen, under Tools, click Create bootable media. The Acronis Bootable Media
Builder wizard will open.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.

If the machine connects to the Internet through a proxy server, configure Acronis Backup & Recovery
11 to use the proxy server.
1. Start Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.
2. On the Options menu, click Machine options.
3. Click Online backup proxy.
4. Enter the proxy server settings. For detailed information about the settings please refer to the
context-sensitive help.
5 Activating online backup subscriptions
To be able to back up a machine to the online storage, you need to purchase and activate a
subscription to the Acronis Backup & Recovery Online service. You can purchase subscriptions on the
Acronis Web site or from an Acronis reseller.
