it. The partitions layout, the comment and the Next button will be unavailable until you
enter the correct password.
2. Click Next.
3. If you are to restore data from an archive, containing incremental backups, Acronis True
Image Server for Linux will suggest that you select one of successive incremental backups
by date/time of its creation. Thus, you can return the disk/partition to a certain moment.
To restore data from an incremental backup, you must have all previous incremental backup files and
the initial full backup. If any of successive backups is missing, restoration is impossible.
To restore data from a differential backup, you must have the initial full backup as well.
4. Click Next.

Restoration type selection
1. Select what you want to restore:
Restore specified files or folders
With this selection, you will be further offered to select where to restore selected
folders/files (original or new location), choose files/folders to be restored and so on. These
steps look like those in file archive restore. However, watch your selection: if you are to
restore files instead of disk/partition, uncheck the unnecessary folders. Otherwise you will
restore a lot of excessive files. Then you will be taken directly to Restoration Summary
screen (
6.3.11 Restoration summary and executing restoration
).
Restore disks or partitions
Having selected a usual way of disks/partitions recovery, you will have to make all settings
described below.
2. Click Next.
Selecting a disk/partition to restore
1. The selected archive file can contain images of several partitions or even disks. Select
which disk/partition to restore.
