Acronis Plug-in for WinPE
A modification of Acronis Backup & Recovery Server OEM Agent for Windows that can run in the
preinstallation environment. The plug-in can be added to a WinPE image using Bootable Media
Builder. The resulting bootable media can be used to boot any PC-compatible machine and perform,
with certain limitations, most of the direct management operations without help of an operating
system. Operations can be configured and controlled either locally through the GUI or remotely using
the console.
Acronis Startup Recovery Manager (ASRM)
A modification of the bootable agent, residing on the system disk and configured to start at boot
time when F11 is pressed. Acronis Startup Recovery Manager eliminates the need for rescue media
or network connection to start the bootable rescue utility.
Acronis Startup Recovery Manager is especially useful for mobile users. If a failure occurs, the user
reboots the machine, hits F11 on prompt "Press F11 for Acronis Startup Recovery Manager…" and
performs data recovery in the same way as with ordinary bootable media.
Limitation: requires re-activation of loaders other than Windows loaders and GRUB.
Agent (Acronis Backup & Recovery Server OEM Agent)
An application that performs data backup and recovery and enables other management operations
on the machine (p. 151), such as task management and operations with hard disks.
The type of data that can be backed up depends on the agent type. Acronis Backup & Recovery
Server OEM includes the agents for backing up disks.

Agent-side validation
Validation (p. 152) performed by an agent according to the backup plan that produces the archive (p.
146). Agent-side validation is performed in unmanaged vaults (p. 152).
