6.3.14 Additional settings
1. Validate backup archive upon operation completion
The preset is
disabled
.
The program will check integrity of the just created or supplemented archive immediately
after backup when enabled.
To check archive data integrity, you must have all incremental and differential backups
belonging to the archive and the initial full backup. If any of successive backups is
missing, validation is not possible.
2. Overwrite data on a tape without user confirmation
The preset is
enabled
.
When pulling a tape from the Imported media pool, Acronis True Image Echo Workstation
will warn that you are about to lose data on the tape. To disable this warning, check the
middle box.
3. Ask for first media while creating backup archives on removable media
The preset is
enabled
.
You can choose whether to display the
Insert First Media
prompt when backing up to
removable media. With the default setting, backing up to removable media may be not
possible if the user is away, because the program will wait for someone to press
OK
in
the prompt box. Therefore, you should disable the prompt when scheduling a backup to
removable media. Then, if the removable media is available (for example, CD-R/RW
inserted), the task can run unattended.
4. Reset archive bit
The preset is
disabled
. The option relates only to file-level backup.
In Windows operating systems, each file has an attribute
File is ready for archiving
,
available at selecting file ->
Properties -> General -> Advanced -> Archive and
Index attributes
. This attribute, also known as archive bit, is set by the operating
system each time the file is changed and can be reset by backup applications each time
they include the file in a backup copy. Archive bit value is used by various applications
such as databases.
