If you restore a system partition to another hard disk with its own partitions and OS, most
probably you will need only the data. In this case, you can restore the partition as
Logical to access the data only.
By default, the original partition type is selected.
Selecting Active for a partition without an installed operating system could prevent your
server from booting.
6.3.7 Changing the restored partition file system
Though seldom required, you can change the partition file system during its restoration.
Acronis True Image Echo Server can make the following file system conversions: FAT 16
-> FAT 32, Ext2 -> Ext3. For partitions with other native file systems this option is not
available.
6.3.8 Changing the restored partition size and location
You can resize and relocate a partition by dragging it or its borders with a mouse or by
entering corresponding values in the appropriate fields.
Using this feature, you can redistribute the disk space between partitions being restored.
In this case, you will have to restore the partition to be reduced first.
These changes might be useful if you are to copy your hard disk to a new high-capacity
one by creating its image and restoring it to a new disk with larger partitions.
6.3.9 Restoring several disks or partitions at once
During a single session, you can restore several partitions or disks, one by one, by
selecting one disk and setting its parameters first and then repeating these actions for
every partition or disk to be restored.
If you want to restore another disk (partition), select Yes, I want to restore another
partition or hard disk drive. Then you will return to the partition selection window
(6.3.4) again and will have to repeat the above steps. Otherwise, don’t set this switch.
