To disable backup cataloging

These steps can be performed in any order.

1. Modify the Windows registry (p. 406) on the management server.
2. Modify the Windows registry (p. 225) on storage nodes.
3. [On managed machines in an Active Directory domain] Load Acronis Administrative Template (p.

392) on the domain controller and configure the Cataloging setting in the Acronis Backup Agent
for Windows
(p. 396) category of the template.

4. [On managed machines not included in an Active Directory domain] Connect the console to each

machine, go to Options > Machine options, and configure the Backup cataloging option.

4.7 Default backup options

Each Acronis agent has its own default backup options. Once an agent is installed, the default options
have pre-defined values, which are referred to as presets in the documentation. When creating a
backup plan, you can either use a default option, or override the default option with the custom
value that will be specific for this plan only.

You can also customize a default option itself by changing its value against the pre-defined one. The
new value will be used by default in all backup plans you will create later on this machine.

To view and change the default backup options, connect the console to the managed machine and
then select Options > Default backup and recovery options > Default backup options from the top
menu.

Availability of the backup options

The set of available backup options depends on:

The environment the agent operates in (Windows, Linux, bootable media).

The type of the data being backed up (disk, file).

The backup destination (networked location or local disk).

The backup scheme (manual start or using the scheduler).

The following table summarizes the availability of the backup options.
