6.5 Mounting an image

Mounting volumes from a disk backup (image) lets you access the volumes as though they were

physical disks. Multiple volumes contained in the same backup can be mounted within a single

mount operation. The mount operation is available when the console is connected to a managed

machine running either Windows or Linux.

Mounting volumes in the read/write mode enables you to modify the backup content, that is, save,

move, create, delete files or folders, and run executables consisting of one file.

Limitation: Mounting of volume backups stored on Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Storage Node is not possible.

Usage scenarios:

 Sharing: mounted images can be easily shared to networked users.

 "Band aid" database recovery solution: mount up an image that contains an SQL database from

a recently failed machine. This will give access to the database until the failed machine is

recovered.

 Offline virus clean: if a machine is attacked, the administrator shuts it down, boots with bootable

media and creates an image. Then, the administrator mounts this image in read/write mode,

scans and cleans it with an antivirus program, and finally recovers the machine.

 Error check: if recovery failed due to a disk error, mount the image in the read/write mode.

Then, check the mounted disk for errors with the chkdsk /r command.

To mount an image, perform the following steps.
