Chapter 1. Introduction

1.1 What is Acronis Disk Director Server?

Acronis Disk Director Server is a complex program that includes partition manager and

hard disk data editing tools. With it, you can:

• Create hard disk partitions

• Resize, move, split and merge partitions without data loss or destruction

• Convert partitions to other file systems without data loss

• Copy (move) partition contents

• Delete partitions

• Create, delete and resize hard disk partitions using the command-line mode

• Recover hard disk partitions that were accidentally deleted or damaged due to a

hardware or software error

• Format, label, assign letters, hide and unhide partitions, set active partitions and

perform additional disk management operations

• Recover boot records, files and folders structure, find lost clusters, remove viruses,

etc.

Some terms of this guide might be unfamiliar. Chapter 7 «Hard Disk And File Systems

» and

Appendix B «Glossary» provide descriptions of some hard disk data storage compo

nents and

used terms.

1.2 What’s new in Acronis Disk Director Server 10.0?

• Splitting/merging partitions

You can split a partition in two, moving the selected folders to the new partition and

leaving the rest of the data on the old one. This operation can also be used for

creating an empty partition from another partition’s free space. You can merge two

partitions, as well, even if their file systems are different. All data will stay intact and

reside on the resulting partition.

• Exploring and managing partitions contents

You can explore or manage partition contents before configuring operations on that

partition directly from Acronis Disk Director Server. It enables you to copy, paste,

rename and delete files and folders, create folders on the selected partition, and

even edit text files.\

• Working in the command-line mode

An administrator might need a console interface to create, delete and resize the

partitions. Acronis Disk Director Server supports this mode with

Glossary

Appendix B. Glossary

Absolute sector. All the sectors of a hard disk can be numbered sequentially, starting with

zero. Such numbered sectors are called absolute.

Active partition. One of the primary partitions of a hard disk is usually active. Default MBR

code tries to boot an operating system from the active partition of the first hard disk.

Letter assignment in Microsoft operating systems depends on which partitions are active.

Bad cluster. A cluster that contains bad sectors. Such a cluster cannot store information,

with possible corruption of the data.

Bad sector. A sector that cannot store the information written, for instance due to defects

or aging of the magnetic surface.

Booting is a procedure that is executed every time a computer is turned on or an

operating system finishes its work or when the reset button is pressed. Booting consists

of the following stages:

• Hardware diagnostics

• Memory check

• Built-in BIOS initialization

• Initialization of additional hardware components and their BIOSes (video, SCSI etc.)

• Booting an operating system

If a boot manager is installed on a computer, it is booted instead of an operating system.

Then the boot manager boots the user-selected operating system itself.

Boot record. The initial part of a partition that contains code and data necessary for

booting an operating system. May consist of one or several sectors. The first sector of a

boot record must end with the boot sector signature (0AA55h).

Boot sector is the first sector of a disk or a partition that contains the initial code for the

operating system booting. The boot sector must end with the 0AA55h signature.

Bootable disk is a disk from which an operating system may be booted. A bootable disk

must contain a boot sector of an operating system and the necessary system and

configuration files. The «bootable disk» term usually refers to diskettes and CD-ROMs.

Bootable partition. A partition that can host an operating system. At the beginning of such

a partition, there should be a boot record.

Cluster. Information storage unit in such file systems as FAT and NTFS. Every file

occupies a certain number of whole clusters, so the greater the cluster size, the higher

the losses due to file size adjustment, but the smaller the cluster the more space the

cluster distribution tables occupy.
