If you’ve purchased the program on a CD, it will already be bootable. You can also
create bootable media during or after the installation.
For this you will need a CD-R/RW blank, 5 formatted diskettes (or 2 for the safe
variant), or any other media your PC can boot from, e.g. Zip.
Click Create Rescue Media on the toolbar or in the left part of the main window,
or select Create Rescue Media from the Tools menu.
You can also create bootable media without loading
Acronis
True Image Server itself
by selecting

from the
Start
menu.
You will see the bootable media wizard that will ask you to select either complete,
or safe loader version. The latter doesn't have USB, PC card (PCMCIA), SCSI drivers
and is useful only in case the complete version doesn’t work.
After you create bootable media, mark it and keep in a safe place.
10.3. Viewing logs
Acronis True Image Server allows users to view its working logs. They can provide
information about scheduled image creation results, including failure reasons if any.
Logs are created only for partition (disk) image creation operations.
To invoke the log window, select Show log on the toolbar or from the Tools menu.
The log browsing window contains two panels: the left one features the log list,
while the right one – selected log contents.
