Creating a personal vault

To create a personal vault

1. In the Name field, type a name for the vault being created.
2. [Optional] In the Comments field, add a description of the vault.
3. Click Path and specify a path to the folder that will be used as the vault. A personal vault can be

organized on a network share, FTP server, detachable media, Acronis Cloud Storage, tape device,
or on a hard drive local to the machine.

4. [Optional] If the vault is created on a tape device:

a. Click Drives to specify the tape drive(s) to be used when backing up to the vault. By default,

all available drives will be used. Click Use the following drives only and select or clear
required check boxes;

b. Click Tape pool and specify the pool whose tapes will be used by the vault. By default, the

Acronis pool is selected.

5. Click OK. As a result, the created vault appears in the Personal group of the vaults tree.

Merging and moving personal vaults

What if I need to move the existing vault from one place to another?

Proceed as follows

1. Make sure that none of the backup plans uses the existing vault while moving files, or disable the

given plans. See Actions on backup plans and tasks (p. 318).

2. Move the vault folder with all its content to a new place manually by means of a third-party file

manager.

3. Create a new vault.
