Archive selection
To select an archive
1.
Enter the full path to the location in the Path field, or select the desired folder in the folders tree.
If the archive is stored in Acronis Online Backup Storage, click
Log in
and specify the
credentials to log in to the online storage. Then expand the
Online backup storage
group and
select the account.
Exporting and mounting are not supported for backups stored in Acronis Online Backup Storage.
If the archive is stored in a centralized vault, expand the
Centralized
group and click the
vault.
If the archive is stored in a personal vault, expand the
Personal
group and click the vault.
If the archive is stored in a local folder on the machine, expand the
Local folders
group and
click the required folder.
If the archive is located on removable media, e.g. DVDs, first insert the last DVD and then insert the discs in
order starting from the first one when the program prompts.
If the archive is stored on a network share, expand the
Network folders
group, then select
the required networked machine and then click the shared folder. If the network share
requires access credentials, the program will ask for them.
Note for Linux users:
To specify a Common Internet File System (CIFS) network share which is mounted on a
mount point such as /mnt/share, select this mount point instead of the network share itself.
If the archive is stored on an
FTP
or
SFTP
server, type the server name or address in the
Path
field as follows:
ftp://ftp_server:port _number or sftp://sftp_server:port number
If the port number is not specified, port 21 is used for FTP and port 22 is used for SFTP.
After entering access credentials, the folders on the server become available. Click the
appropriate folder on the server.
You can access the server as an anonymous user if the server enables such access. To do so,
click
Use anonymous access
instead of entering credentials.
According to the original FTP specification, credentials required for access to FTP servers are transferred
through a network as plaintext. This means that the user name and password can be intercepted by an
eavesdropper using a packet sniffer.
If the archive is stored on a locally attached tape device, expand the
Tape drives
group, then
click the required device.
For the management server: in the folders tree, select the managed vault.
2.
In the table to the right of the tree, select the archive. The table displays the names of the
archives contained in each vault/folder you select. If the archive is password-protected, provide
the password.
While you are reviewing the location content, archives can be added, deleted or modified by
another user or by the program itself according to scheduled operations. Use the
Refresh
button
to refresh the list of archives.
