You need to back up partition 2-1. Let’s suppose a complete image has to be created weekly,
supported by incremental images created daily.
To do this, place the respective executable files (e.g.
trueimage.cron
) into
/etc/cron.daily
and
/etc/cron.weekly
folders.
To initiate
weekly
creation of a complete image of partition 2-1, add the following line to the above
file:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/sbin/trueimagecmd --create --partition:2-1 \
--filename:/mnt/backups/my_host/backup.tib
Where /mnt/backups/my_host/backup.tib is the name and path of the image.
The second executable file is needed to initiate daily creation of incremental images:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/sbin/trueimagecmd --create --incremental --partition:2-1 \
--filename:/mnt/backups/my_host/backup.tib
If needed, users can set up their own backup schedule. For more information, see Help on the
cron
service.

Restoring files with trueimagemnt
The
trueimagemnt
tool is designed to restore files from partition/disk images. It mounts Acronis
Backup & Recovery 10 archives as if they were kernel space block devices. The program implements
the user level part of the user mode block device service of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10. The
majority of the functionality is handled by the snumbd kernel module.
