Product Components
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Bootable components
The bootable components of the agent enable operations with reboot, such as recovery of the volume containing the currently active operating system. Once the operations are completed, the machine boots into the operating system again. You can choose not to install the bootable components and perform operations that require reboot using bootable media.
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Bootable Media Builder
Acronis Bootable Media Builder is a dedicated tool for creating bootable media with bootable Acronis components based on the Linux kernel.
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Agent for Linux
This agent enables disk-level and file-level data protection under Linux.
Disk backup
The disk-level data protection is based on backing up either the disk or volume file system as a whole, along with all information necessary for the operating system to boot; or all the disk sectors using the sector-by-sector approach (raw mode.) A backup that contains a copy of a disk or a volume in a packaged form is called a disk (volume) backup or a disk (volume) image. You can recover disks or volumes as a whole from such backup, as well as individual directories or files.
File backup
The file-level data protection is based on backing up the user's selection of files and directories. You can recover all files and directories that were backed up or select which of them to recover.
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Management Console
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Management Console is an administrative tool for remote or local access to Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Agents and, in the product editions that include the centralized management capability, to the Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Management Server.
Using the direct console-agent connection, the administrator sets up and manages local backup plans, recovers data, creates and explores personal archive vaults and performs other direct management operations.
Having connected the console to the management server, the administrator sets up and manages backup policies and accesses other functionality of the management server, that is, performs centralized management.
