Acronis true image echo Manual

The minimum size is about 35MB, depending on the geometry of the hard disk. The

maximum size is equal to the disk’s unallocated space plus the total free space on all

partitions selected at the previous step.
When creating the zone, the program will first use the unallocated space. If there is not

enough unallocated space, the selected partitions will be decreased. Partition resizing may

require a reboot.

Please keep in mind that reducing a system partition to the minimum size might prevent

your operating system from booting.

5. You can set a password to restrict access to the zone. The program will ask for the

password at the beginning of some operations relating to it, such as data recovery,

mounting images or validating archives on the zone, rescue boot with the F11 key,

resizing and deleting the zone.

Acronis True Image Echo Server repair or update will not affect the password. However,

if the program is removed and then installed again while keeping the Acronis Secure

Zone on the disk, the password for the zone will be reset.

6. Then you will see a list of operations to be performed on partitions (disks).
After you click Proceed, Acronis True Image Echo Server will start creating the zone.

Progress will be reflected in a special window. If necessary, you can stop zone creation by

clicking Cancel. However, the procedure will be canceled only after the current operation

is finished.
Acronis Secure Zone creation might take several minutes or more. Please wait until the

whole procedure is finished.

8.2 Resizing Acronis Secure Zone

1. When prompted by the wizard, select Manage Acronis Secure Zone.
2. Select to increase or decrease the zone. You might need to increase it to provide more

space for archives. The opposite situation might arise if either partition lacks free space.
