Backups

Listing backups

Listing backups of an archive stored in a local folder. The output will be displayed in the raw format. Therefore, you will be able to see and use complete GUIDs of backups.
```
acrocmd list backups --loc=E:\backups\ --arc=my_archive --output=raw
```
Listing backups of an archive stored in a network folder and saving the complete output to a text file. This allows you to use GUIDs of backups in scripts.

In the following example, the output in the raw format is redirected to a text file.
```
acrocmd list backups --loc=\\bkpsrv\backups --credentials=netuser,pass --arc=my_archive --output=raw > c:\GUID.txt
```
In the following example, the operation log, including the output data, is written to a text file in the structured xml format.
```
acrocmd list backups --loc=\\bkpsrv\backups --credentials=netuser,pass --arc=my_archive --log=c:\log.txt
```

Listing backup content

Listing the content of a backup from an archive residing in Acronis Secure Zone.

acrocmd list content --loc=atis:///asz --credentials=aszpass --arc=my_archive --backup=XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX

Validating a backup

Validating a backup.

acrocmd validate backup --loc=E:\backups\ --arc=my_archive --backup=XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX

Exporting backups

Exporting the selected backups of an archive stored in a network folder to a local folder.

acrocmd export backup --loc=\\bkpsrv1\backups --credentials=netuser1,pass1 --arc=my_archive --password=123 --backup=XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXX1,XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXX2 --target=E:\copies --target_arc=my_archive_copy

Exporting the latest backup of an archive from one network folder to another one.
```
acrocmd export backup --loc=\\bkpsrv1\backups --credentials=netuser1,pass1 --arc=my_archive --target=\\bkpsrv2\backups --credentials=netuser2,pass2 --progress
```
The first credentials are required to access the source network folder \\bkpsrv1\backups. The second credentials enable writing to the target network folder \\bkpsrv2\backups.

Replicating a backup

acrocmd replicate backup --loc=C:\Backups --arc=my_archive --password=123 --target=\\bkpsrv\backups --credentials=netuser,pass

acrocmd replicate backup --loc=\\bkpsrv\backups --credentials=netuser,pass1 --arc=my_archive --backup=XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX --target=online:// --credentials=user@mail.com,pass2 --target_arc=my_archive_copy

Converting a backup to full

```
