7.3 Restoring disks/partitions or files from images
To restore a partition (disk) from an image, Acronis True Image Enterprise Server must
obtain
exclusive access
to the target partition (disk). This means no other applications can
access it at that time. If you receive a message stating that the partition (disk) can not be
blocked, close applications that use this partition (disk) and start over. If you can not
determine which applications use the partition (disk), close them all.
7.3.1 Starting the Restore Data Wizard
1. Invoke the
Restore Data Wizard
by clicking on the restore operation icon in the main
program window.
2. Click
Next
.
7.3.2 Archive selection
1. Select the archive. If the archive is located in Acronis Secure Zone, select it to choose the
archive at the next step.
If the archive is located on removable media, e.g. CD, first insert the last CD and then insert
disks in reverse order when Restore Data Wizard prompts.
Data recovery directly from an FTP server requires the archive to be split into files no more
than 2GB in size. If you suspect that some of the files may be larger, first copy the entire
archive (along with the initial full backup) to a local hard disk or network share disk. See
notes and recommendations for supporting FTP server in
1.5.4 Supported storage media.
If you added a comment to the archive, it will be displayed to the right of the drives tree. If
the archive was protected with a password, Acronis True Image Enterprise Server will ask for
it. The partitions layout, the comment and the
Next
button will be unavailable until you
enter the correct password.
2. Click
Next
.
3. If the selected archive contains incremental backups, Acronis True Image Enterprise
Server will suggest that you select one of successive incremental backups by its creation
date/time. Thus, you can return the disk data to a certain moment.
