Additional settings
1. Validate backup archive upon operation completion
The default setting – disabled.
You can choose to check the backup data integrity. Verification will be performed
immediately after the archive is created.
To check data from an incremental backup, you must have all previous incremental backup files and the
initial full backup. If any of successive backups is missing, validation is impossible.
initial full backup. If any of successive backups is missing, validation is impossible.
To check data from a differential backup, you must have the initial full backup as well.
However, if you created several differential or both incremental and differential backups based on the
same full backup (and therefore, in the same folder), you will need ALL of these successive backups to
validate the archive.
same full backup (and therefore, in the same folder), you will need ALL of these successive backups to
validate the archive.
2. Overwrite data on a tape without user confirmation
The default setting – disabled.
A full backup, when created on a tape drive, overwrites all data stored on the tape (see
Backing up to tape drive
for more information). In this situation, Acronis True Image Server
for Linux 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 default setting – 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
impossible if the user is away, because the program will wait for pressing 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.
