Remote connection to the agent is not possible.
Acronis products do not support systems with Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI). Although it is possible to
restore a GPT partition with Acronis if Windows is installed on it, the restored system will not be bootable.
Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 can back up and recover operating systems if they are installed in BIOS/MBR
mode, even if they run on EFI-capable servers. Most servers have BIOS settings that allow booting the
installation CD in BIOS/MBR mode instead of EFI mode. The MBR mode ensures that after installation the boot
disk is partitioned in MBR standard, not GPT.
