Creating a recovery image
Before creating a recovery image, determine the storage location for the image. Grass Valley
recommends that you store the recovery image on the Recovery Flash Drive, and this task provides
instructions for that location. If you use a different location, such as a network connected drive or
another connected USB drive, alter the steps in this task as appropriate.
1. Make sure that media access is stopped and that the system on which you are working is not
being used.
2. If you have not already done so, connect keyboard, monitor, and mouse.
3. Do the following:
a) Insert the Recovery Flash Drive into a USB port.
b) Restart the machine, or power on if currently shut down.
The machine boots from the Recovery Flash Drive, into a version of Windows stored on the
drive.
A MS-DOS command window opens.
c) When prompted with a list of options, type
2
to select the Acronis option and then press
Enter
.
The Acronis program loads.
4. In the Acronis main window, click
Backup
.
The Create Backup Wizard opens.
5. On the Welcome page, click
Next
.
6. On the Partitions Selection page, do the following:
a) Select the
(C:)
partition and then click
Next
.
NOTE: Verify capacity to make sure you select the boot media card (CompactFlash or
mSATA) and not a media drive. The boot media has a much smaller capacity.
If a “…choose full backup mode…” message appears, click
OK
.
