3.4 Acronis Startup Recovery Manager
3.4.1 How it works
The Acronis Startup Recovery Manager enables starting Acronis True Image for Microsoft

operating system won't load, you can run Acronis True Image for Microsoft Small
Business Server by itself to restore damaged partitions. Unlike booting from the Acronis
removable media or RIS server, you will not need a separate media or network
connection to start Acronis True Image for Microsoft Small Business Server. It is especially
handy for mobile users who need to run a server operating system on their laptop.
