The Acronis True Image Echo components are replaced with the Acronis Backup & Recovery 10
components.
Importing tasks
You might want to import Acronis True Image Echo backup tasks and validation tasks to Acronis
Backup & Recovery 10—either during installation or manually later at any time. If you do not import
them, these tasks will no longer run.
Note:
The tasks that back up data to Acronis Backup Server or validate archives stored on it will not be imported
to Acronis Backup & Recovery 10.
To import the old tasks manually, use Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Upgrade Tool. This command-
line utility is located in the Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 installation directory, in the
UpgradeTool
subdirectory.
1.
Install the upgrade tool by running the Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 setup file.
2.
Change the current folder to the folder where the upgrade tool is installed—by default:
C:\Program Files\Acronis\UpgradeTool
If Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 is installed in a folder other than the default folder, change the
path accordingly.
3.
Run the following command:
cscript UpgradeTool.vbs Agent
Result:
•
Tasks that were present in Acronis True Image Echo are converted to Acronis Backup & Recovery
10 tasks and appear in the
Backup plans and tasks
view.
•
Each backup task's schedule, items to back up, and backup destination are the same as before,
but the task will create a new archive to perform further backups.
•
Each backup task is part of a backup plan. You can edit the backup plan to change the task's
schedule or other parameters.
Importing old options
The upgrade tool enables you to import the default backup options, default restoration options,
notification options, and event tracing options of Acronis True Image Echo to the default backup and
recovery options of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10.
To import the old options:
1.
Change the current folder to the one where the upgrade tool is installed.
2.
Run the following command:
cscript UpgradeTool.vbs Options
The old options are imported as follows:
•
Notifications
is imported as
Notifications
in both Default backup options and Default recovery
options.
