7.1.1 Working with vaults

This section briefly describes the main GUI elements of the selected vault, and suggests ways to work
with them.

Examining information on a vault

Information about the selected vault is located at the top pane of the selected vault. Using the
stacked bar, you can estimate the vault's load. The vault's load is the proportion of the vault's free
space and occupied space. Free space is a space on the storage device where the vault is located. For
example, if the vault is located on a hard disk, the vault free space is the free space of the respective
volume. Occupied space is the total size of backup archives and their metadata, if it is located in the
vault.

You can obtain the total number of archives and backups stored in the vault and full path to the
vault.

Browsing the vault contents and data selection

You can browse the vault content and select data to recover by using the Data view tab, or the
Archive view tab.

Data view
The Data view tab lets you browse and select the backed-up data by versions (backup date and time).
The Data view tab shares the same searching and cataloging functionality with the data catalog (p.
98).

Archive view
The Archive view tab displays the backed-up data by archives. Use the Archive view to perform
operations with archives and backups stored in the vault. For more information about these
operations, see the following sections:

Operations with archives stored in a vault (p. 147).

Operations with backups (p. 148).

Sorting, filtering and configuring table items (p. 16).

What does the

icon mean?

When browsing archives on the Archive view tab, you may encounter a backup with the

icon.

This icon means that the backup is marked for deletion but cannot be deleted immediately because
other backups depend on it and consolidation is either not possible or disabled by retention rules.

You cannot perform any operation on backups marked for deletion. They disappear from the Archive
view
after they are physically deleted. This happens when all of the dependent backups are also
deleted, or at next cleanup after you enable consolidation in the retention rules.

7.1.2 Personal vaults

A vault is called personal if it was created using direct connection of the console to a managed
machine. Personal vaults are specific for each managed machine. Personal vaults are visible to any
user that can log on to the system. A user's right to back up to a personal vault is defined by the
user's permission for the folder or device where the vault is located.

A personal vault can be organized on a network share, FTP server, detachable or removable media,
Acronis Cloud Storage, or on a hard drive local to the machine. Acronis Secure Zone is considered as a
