Where to recover
This section appears after the required backup is selected and the type of data to recover is
defined. The parameters you specify here depend on the type of data being recovered.
Disks (p. 139)
Volumes (p. 143)
Files (p. 146)
Microsoft Exchange databases or storage groups
Microsoft Exchange mailboxes or public folders
Microsoft SQL databases (p. 315)
Microsoft Active Directory (p. 323)
[On the management server only] Choose the registered machine to recover the data to. In
most cases, the machine that the data comes from is chosen automatically. If you need to
recover data to a network share or to a virtual machine, choose the registered machine with
the agent that will perform the recovery.
Acronis Active Restore
[Optional] Enable Acronis Active Restore if you need to bring a system or a database online
immediately after the recovery is started. Available when recovering Windows (p. 155),
Microsoft Exchange databases, or Microsoft SQL databases (p. 316).
Access credentials (p. 139)
[Optional] Provide credentials for the destination if the task credentials do not enable
recovery of the selected data. To access this setting, click Show access credentials.
When to recover
Recover (p. 147)
Select when to start recovery. The task can start immediately after its creation, be scheduled
for a specified date and time in the future or simply saved for manual execution.
Task parameters
Task name
[Optional] Enter a unique name for the recovery task. A conscious name lets you quickly
identify the task among the others.
Recovery options
[Optional] Customize the recovery operation by configuring the recovery options, such as
pre/post recovery commands, recovery priority, error handling or notification options. If you
do nothing in this section, the default values (p. 160) will be used.
After any of the settings are changed against the default value, a new line that displays the
newly set value appears. The setting status changes from Default to Custom. Should you
modify the setting again, the line will display the new value unless the new value is the
default one. When the default value is set, the line disappears. Therefore, in this section you
always see only the settings that differ from the default values.
Clicking Reset to default resets all the settings to default values.
Task credentials
[Optional] The task will run on behalf of the user who is creating the task. You can change the
task account credentials if necessary. To access this setting, click Show task credentials.
[Optional] Universal Restore for Windows/Linux
Applies to: system disk or volume recovery.
