1. You can choose whether to restore files’ date and time from the archive or assign the
files the current date and time.
2. Before data is restored from the archive, Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise Server
can check its integrity. If you suspect that the archive might have been corrupted, select
Validate backup archive before restoration.
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.
3. Having restored a disk/partition from an image, Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise
Server can check the integrity of the file system. To do so, select Check file system
after restoration.
Verification of the file system is available only when restoring disk/partitions under
Windows and for FAT16/32 and NTFS file systems.
4. The bootable Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise Server version has also an option
that after the restoration is finished, the computer reboots and starts the newly restored
OS without any user interaction. If this option is set, post operation commands will not be
executed. Include the reboot command in your batch file if you need these commands to
be executed.
7.5 Creating dynamic disks and volumes
Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise Server must obtain exclusive access to the disks to
perform operations with disks and volumes. This means no other applications can access
it at that time. Please close all other applications that use the disks (such as Windows
Disk Management) before starting the disk conversion and dynamic volume creation
wizards.
7.5.1 Converting disk to dynamic
This operation is available both in Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise Server local version
and Acronis True Image Agent, including bootable versions of these components. Having
booted to the Acronis environment, you can easily prepare the desired dynamic group on
bare metal or a computer with a non-Windows operating system.
Considerations before conversion:
• The operation supports both MBR and GPT basic disks. An MBR basic disk must have
at least 1MB of free space at the end of the disk for the dynamic disk database.
• If a disk is converted for purposes other than preparing a target disk for restoration
(which means you wish to keep its data), be sure to back up the disk contents before
converting. Just as with any major change to disk partitions or volumes, conversion is
a high-risk operation.
• Basic disks that contain multiple operating system installations, when converted, will
keep only one operating system bootable (the system that was running during
conversion). Should a disk with multiple operating system installations be converted,
the best practice is to boot from another disk.
To convert a basic disk to dynamic:
