8.3.1 Archive selection

To select an archive

1. Enter the full path to the location in the Path field, or select the desired folder in the folders tree:

If the archive is stored in a personal vault located located in a local folder, Acronis Secure
Zone, or on a network share, expand the Personal group and click the required vault.

If the archive is stored in a local folder on the machine, expand the Local folders group and
click the required folder.
Mounting is not available if the archive is stored on optical media such as CD, DVD, or Blu-ray
Discs (BD).

If the archive is stored on a network share, expand the Network folders group, select the
required networked machine, and then click the shared folder. If the network share requires
access credentials, the program will ask for them.
To specify a Common Internet File System (CIFS) network share which is mounted on a
mount point such as /mnt/share, select this mount point instead of the network share itself.

If the archive is stored on an NFS share, expand the NFS drives group and click the folder.

2. In the table to the right of the tree, select the archive. The table displays the names of the

archives contained in each vault/folder you select.
While you are reviewing the location content, archives can be added, deleted or modified by
another user or by the program itself according to scheduled operations. Use the Refresh button
to refresh the list of archives.
