Acronis True Image Echo™ Enterprise Server TIES91DB 用户手册

 

Mounting images as virtual drives lets you access them as though they were physical 
drives. This means that: 
•  a new disk with its own letter will appear in the drives list 
•  using Windows Explorer and other file managers, you can view the image contents as 

if they were located on a physical disk or partition 

•  you will be able to use the virtual disk in the same way as the real one: open, save, 

copy, move, create, delete files or folders. If necessary, the image can be mounted in 
read-only mode 

Please keep in mind that although both file archives and disk/partition images have a 
default “.tib” extension, only images can be mounted. If you want to view file archive 
contents, use the Explore operation. The following is a brief summary of the Explore and 
Mount operations:

Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise Server can mount or explore an image archive only if 

all its volumes reside in the same directory. If your archive spans several CD-R/RW discs 
and you want to mount the image, copy all volumes to a hard disk drive or network 

drive. 

1. Click Explore and Validate Backup Archives in the Tools group or select the 
Backup Archives category on the sidebar to navigate to the Manage Backup Archives 
window. Then select Explore Backup Archive. Or, you can select Tools -> Explore 
Backup Archive in the main program menu.  
2. Select an archive from the drive tree and click Open. If the archive is located in 
Acronis Secure Zone, select it to choose the archive at the next step. The explore 
operation does not support Acronis Backup Server, so backup servers are not displayed in 
the tree.
