The preset is: Normal.
The optimal data compression level depends on the type of data being backed up. For example, even
maximum compression will not significantly reduce the archive size if the archive contains essentially
compressed files, such as .jpg, .pdf or .mp3. However, formats such as .doc or .xls will be compressed
well.
To specify the compression level
Select one of the following:

None – the data will be copied as is, without any compression. The resulting backup size will be
maximal.

Normal – recommended in most cases.

High – the resulting backup size will typically be less than for the Normal level.

Maximum – the data will be compressed as much as possible. The backup duration will be
maximal. You may want to select maximum compression when backing up to removable media
to reduce the number of blank disks required.
4.7.7 Disaster recovery plan (DRP)
This option is effective for Windows and Linux but is not applicable to bootable media.
This option is not effective for file-level backups.
Disaster recovery plan (DRP) contains a list of backed up data items and detailed instructions that
guide a user through a process of recovering these items from a backup.
A DRP is created after the first successful backup is performed by the backup plan. If the Send
disaster recovery plans option is enabled, the DRP is sent by e-mail to the specified list of users. If
the Save DRP as file option is enabled, the DRP is saved as a file to the specified location. The DRP
will be created again in the following cases:

The backup plan has been edited so that the DRP parameters changed.

The backup contains new data items or does not contain items previously backed up. (This does
not apply to such data items as files or folders.)
You can specify a local folder, a network folder, an FTP or SFTP server as a location to save the DRPs.
DRP and post-backup commands
Note that the DRP will not automatically change if post-backup commands in your backup plan copy
or move the backups from the original location. The DRP points only to the locations specified in the
backup plan.
Adding information to a DRP template
You can append additional information to a DRP template if you are well familiar with XML and HTML.
The default paths to the DRP template are:

%ProgramFiles%\Acronis\BackupAndRecovery\drp.xsl - in 32-bit Windows

%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Acronis\BackupAndRecovery\drp.xsl - in 64-bit Windows

/usr/lib/Acronis/BackupAndRecovery/drp.xsl - in Linux
To set up sending DRPs:
1. Select the Send disaster recovery plans check box.
