Restoring the backup data under X Window System This chapter describes data recovery using Acronis True Image Server for Linux GUI under X Window System. Note that a system partition can be restored only when Acronis True Image Server for Linux is started from a bootable CD (see also 3. 5 and 6. 4) or using F11 (see 3. 4 Acronis Startup Recovery Manager). 6. 1 Network settings in rescue mode When booted from removable media or by Startup Recovery Manager, Acronis True Image Server for Linux may not detect the network. Such might be the case if there is no DHCP server in your network or your computer address was not identified automatically for some reason. To enable connection, specify network settings manually in the window, available at Tools > Options -> Network adapters. 6. 2 Restoring files and folders from file archives Here we describe how to restore file/folders from a file backup archive. You can restore the desired files/folders from a disk/partition image as well. To do so, mount the image (see 9. 1 Mounting an image or 11. 3 Restoring files with trueimagemnt), or start the image restoration and select Restore specified files or folders (see 6. 3 Restoring disks/partitions or files from images). 34 Copyright © Acronis, Inc. , 2000-2006 Restoring the backup data under X Window System 1. Invoke the Restore Data Wizard by clicking on the recovery operation icon in the main program window. If the archive is located in Acronis Secure Zone, select it to choose the archive on the next step. If the archive is located on removable media, e. g. CD, first insert the last CD and then insert disks in reverse order when Restore Data Wizard prompts. Data recovery directly from ftp-server requires the archive to consist of files no more than 2 Gb in size. If you suppose that some of the files may be larger, first copy the entire archive (along with the initial full backup) to a local hard disk or network share disk. If you added a comment to the archive, it will be displayed to the right of the drives tree. If the archive was protected with a password, Acronis True Image Server for Linux will ask for it. The comment and the Next button will be unavailable until you enter the correct password. If you are to restore files from an archive, containing incremental backups, Acronis True Image Server for Linux will suggest that you select one of successive incremental backups by date/time of its creation. Thus, you can return the files/folders to a certain moment. To restore data from an incremental backup, you must have all previous incremental backup files and the initial full backup. If any of successive backups is missing, restoration is impossible. To restore data from a differential backup, you must have the initial full backup as well. 6. Select a folder on your computer where you want to restore selected folders/files (a target folder). You can restore data to their original location or choose another folder, if necessary. Copyright © Acronis, Inc. , 2000-2006 35 Restoring the backup data under X Window System 8. You can choose to restore all data or browse the archive contents and select the desired folders or files. 10. Select the options for restoration process (that is, pre/post restoration commands, restoration process priority etc. ). [. . . ] Clicking Next, you will proceed to the cloning script window. Be careful!Clicking Back in this window will reset all size and location changes that you've selected, so you will have to specify them again. First, select a partition to resize. Resize and relocate it on the next step. You can do this by entering values to Unallocated space before, Partition size, Unallocated space after fields, by dragging partition borders, or the partition itself. [. . . ]
