Acronis True Image 9.1 Server Bundle TISU91DB Manuale Utente

 

Dynamic volumes are volumes located on dynamic disks, i.e. disks managed by Windows 
Logical Disk Manager (LDM). For more information on dynamic disks, please refer to your 
Windows documentation. 
Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise Server can back up and recover dynamic volumes.  
A dynamic volume can be recovered over the same volume or unallocated space of a 
dynamic group. If recovered over another volume, the target volume’s contents will be 
overwritten with the image contents, but the type or other properties of the target 
volume will not be changed. 
To restore a dynamic volume exactly as it is, prepare a target dynamic group without 
volumes. This can be done with the Convert to dynamic disk tool. In case you want to 
restore a dynamic volume in place of some volumes already existing on the target disks, 
delete the original volumes using third-party tools, such as the Windows Disk 
Management tool. 
Dynamic volume contents alone can be recovered onto a basic or dynamic volume 
without changing the target volume type. Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise Server local 
version has the Create dynamic volume tool so that you be able to prepare the desired 
volumes on the target disks. 
Backward  conversion  of  dynamic  volume  to  basic disks can be performed, if need be, 
using the Add new disk operation (see

 Chapter 15.  Adding a new hard disk

).  

With these tools, anywhere-to-anywhere data recovery becomes available, in terms of 
basic disks and dynamic volumes of any type (simple, spanned, striped, mirrored or RAID 
5). The tools are available in bootable program version. Having booted the Acronis 
environment, you can easily prepare the desired dynamic group on bare metal or a 
computer with non-Windows operating system. 
For how to use the above tools see 

7.5  Creating dynamic disks and volumes.

 

Here we describe how to restore files/folders from a file backup archive. You can restore 
the desired files/folders from a disk/partition image as well. To do so, mount the image 
(see 

) or start the image restoration and select Restore 

specified files or folders (see 

). 

1. Start the Restore Data Wizard by clicking on the restore operation icon in the main 
program window. 
2. Select the archive. If the archive is located in Acronis Secure Zone, select it to choose 
the archive on the next step.
