Running Acronis True Image (locale console)Be careful! When you run Acronis True Image Corporate Workstation using Acronis StartupRecovery Manager (before Windows has started) or from bootable rescue media (diskette orCD), drive letters might sometimes differ from Windows notation.To activate Acronis Startup Recovery Manager, click Activate Acronis StartupRecovery Manager.Acronis Startup Recovery Manager cannot be activated if Acronis Secure Zone ismissing on the hard disk. If you have not created this Zone before, you will beprompted to do it (see section 4.2.1 above), then Acronis Startup Recovery Managerwill be activated. Otherwise, Acronis Startup Recovery Manager will be activatedimmediately.When Acronis Startup Recovery Manager is activated it overwrites the Master Boot Record(MBR) with its own boot code. If you have any third party boot managers installed, then youwill have to reactivate them after activating the Startup Recovery Manager. For Linux loaders(e.g. LiLo and GRUB) you might consider installing them to a Linux root (or boot) partitionboot record instead of MBR before activating Acronis Startup Recovery Manager.4.4 Backing up to tape driveThe current version of Acronis True Image Corporate Workstation supports SCSItape drives. It can store images on and restore them from tape, store large imagesto multiple tapes, and append incremental images on to a tape with the existingimages.If you have a SCSI tape drive connected to your workstation, the list of devicesavailable for image storage and restoration will be extended with a namecorresponding to the drive type.Images are created on and restored from tapes in the same way as from otherdevices, with the following exceptions.1. If you are to use data tapes previously used by other programs, their contentswill be cleared2. A new, full image can be stored on an empty tape only. If you use tapes thatalready contain data, their contents will be cleared and overwritten3. Incremental images can be appended to the tape containing the previous image,either full, or incremental4. You don't have to provide a filename to store an image on or restore it from atapeYou might experience short pauses that are required to rewind the tape.Low-quality or old tape, as well as dirt on the magnetic head, might lead to pauses that canlast up to several minutes long.
