3. Select partitions from which free space will be used to increase Acronis Secure Zone or
that will receive free space after the zone is reduced.
4. Enter the new size of the zone or drag the slider to select the size.
When increasing the Acronis Secure Zone, the program will first use unallocated space. If
there is not enough unallocated space, the selected partitions will be decreased. Resizing
of the partitions may require a reboot.
Please keep in mind that reducing a system partition to the minimum size may prevent
your operating system from booting.
When reducing the zone, any unallocated space, if the hard disk has it, will be allocated
to the selected partitions along with the space freed from the zone. Thus, no unallocated
space will remain on the disk.
5. Next you will see a list of briefly described operations to be performed on partitions
(disks).
After you click Proceed, Acronis True Image Echo Server will start resizing the zone.
Progress will be reflected in a special window. If necessary, you can stop the procedure
by clicking Cancel. However, the procedure will be canceled only after the current
operation is finished.
Zone resizing can take several minutes or longer. Please wait until the whole procedure is
finished.
8.3 Changing the password for Acronis Secure Zone
1. When prompted by the wizard, select Manage Acronis Secure Zone.
2. Select Change password.
3. Enter the new password and confirm it or select Do not use password protection.
You can also select a secret question that will be asked in case you forget the password.
4. To perform the password change operation, click Proceed in the final wizard window.
8.4 Deleting Acronis Secure Zone
Acronis Secure Zone deletion will automatically destroy all backups stored in the zone.
In case you remove Acronis True Image Echo Server from the system, there is an option
to keep Acronis Secure Zone along with its contents (which will enable data recovery on
booting from bootable media) or remove Acronis Secure Zone. To delete the zone without
uninstalling the program, proceed as follows.
1. When prompted by the wizard, select Remove Acronis Secure Zone.
2. Select the partitions to which you want to add the space freed from the zone. If you
select several partitions, the space will be distributed proportionally to each partition.
3. Next, you will see a list of briefly described operations to be performed on partitions
(disks).
After you click Proceed, Acronis True Image Echo Server will start deleting the zone.
Progress will be reflected in the opened window. If necessary, you can stop the procedure
by clicking Cancel. However, the procedure will be canceled only after the current
operation is finished.
