Default recovery options
Each Acronis agent has its own default recovery options. Once an agent is installed, the default
options have pre-defined values, which are referred to as
presets
in the documentation. When
creating a recovery task, you can either use a default option, or override the default option with the
custom value that will be specific for this task only.
You can also customize a default option itself by changing its value against the pre-defined one. The
new value will be used by default in all recovery tasks you will create later on this machine.
To view and change the default recovery options, connect the console to the managed machine and
then select
Options > Default backup and recovery options > Default recovery options
from the top
menu.
Availability of the recovery options
The set of available recovery options depends on:
The environment the agent operates in (Windows, Linux, bootable media)
The type of data being recovered (disk, file)
The operating system being recovered from the disk backup (Windows, Linux)
