Acronis Secure Zone: managing backups by archive numbers

  • The following command will list the Acronis Secure Zone size, free space and contents:

    trueimagecmd /asz_content

Assume that the contents of Acronis Secure Zone are as follows:

  C:\Program Files\Acronis\BackupAndRecovery>trueimagecmd /asz_content
ASZ size: 34.439 GB
ASZ free space: 34.409 GB
ARCHIVE number: 1
index: 1; type: file, base; creation time: 4/2/2009 3:52 PM
ARCHIVE number: 2
index: 1; type: file, base; creation time: 4/2/2009 4:04 PM
index: 2; type: file, incremental; creation time: 4/4/2009 6:31 PM
index: 3; type: file, incremental; creation time: 4/4/2009 6:32 PM

In our example, the Acronis Secure Zone contains two archives. The older archive #1 consists of one full (base) file-level backup created on 4/2/2009 at 3:52. The second archive contains a base file-level backup with two increments. You can restore data from any backup as follows:

  trueimagecmd /filerestore /asz:2 /index:2 /target_folder:e:  

This will restore files and folders from the backup created on 4/4/2009 at 6:31 PM with their original paths to the root of partition E.

  trueimage /list /filename:asz://2 /index:3 /password:aszpw  

which is equal to:

  trueimagecmd /list /asz:2 /index:3 /password:aszpw  

This will list content of the 3rd backup created in archive number 2, located in Acronis Secure Zone that is protected with password ‘aszpw’.
