3.8.3 Backing up to a tape device through Acronis Backup Server
To enable backup to a tape device in the local network:
1. Install Acronis Backup Server on a computer accessible to all users.
2. Attach the tape device to that computer.
3. Move tapes from the Unrecognized or Backup pool to the Free pool using the
Removable storage snap-in (Control panel -> Administrative tools -> Computer
management -> Removable storage -> Media pools.)
4. Create local accounts on that computer for all users who will back up their data to the
autoloader. Accounts must belong to the AcronisBackupServerUsers group and be the real
accounts with which users log in Windows.
5. When creating backup tasks (if logged in Windows with the above accounts), users of
Acronis True Image Echo Workstation local version will be able to select the tape device
from the list of Backup Server locatons.
The backup server administrator can create group or individual tasks for computers to
back up their data to the tape device using Acronis True Image Management Console.
Filenames for backups are not needed when backing up to tape.
Archives, created on tape devices through Acronis Backup Server, cannot be accessed by
Acronis True Image Echo Workstation local and bootable versions and agents for
validation, data recovery and converting images to virtual disks.
When the tape is full, you must dismount it first before ejecting.
You can attach the tape device to another Acronis Backup Server, if need be (say, the
current backup server is down.) Before doing so, delete the Acronis database for tape
devices on that computer, if there is one (\Program files\Common
Files\Acronis\Fomatik\tape_archives.fdb.) This will allow the backup server to create the
database for the newly attached tape device using metadata contained on tapes.
Acronis Backup Server does not allow for creating manageable backup locations on tape
devices. This means that you cannot limit the number of backups or the period while the
archives are stored on tape devices. This functionality is supported only on the backup
server internal hard drives.
3.8.4 Restoring data from archives located on tape devices
Data recovery from archives located on tape devices is performed in the same way as
with other storage devices.
When recovering, you start the restore wizard, select the local tape device or tape device
under the backup server, select the archive and the backup to restore data from.
[Tape drive] You will be prompted to insert tapes required for restoring data from the
selected backup.
[Tape library or autoloader] The program finds the tapes and inserts them automatically
in the right order. A prompt comes up if the required tape is not found.
Archives created on tape devices through Acronis Backup Server cannot be accessed by a
locally attached tape device in Acronis True Image Echo Workstation local version.
