On a machine that is not registered on the management server, a user having the privilege to back up

to the centralized vault can do so by specifying the full path to the vault. If the vault is managed, the

user's archives will be managed by the storage node as well as other archives stored in the vault.

Cleanup

Deleting backups (p. 382) from a backup archive (p. 382) in order to get rid of outdated backups or

prevent the archive from exceeding the desired size.

Cleanup consists in applying to an archive the retention rules set by the backup plan (p. 383) that

produces the archive. This operation checks if the archive has exceeded its maximum size and/or for

expired backups. This may or may not result in deleting backups depending on whether the retention

rules are violated or not.

For more information please refer to Retention rules (p. 41).

Console (Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Management Console)

A tool for remote or local access to Acronis agents (p. 382) and Acronis Backup & Recovery 10

Management Server (p. 391).

Having connected the console to the management server, the administrator sets up and manages

backup policies (p. 383) and accesses other management server functionality, that is, performs

centralized management (p. 385). Using the direct console-agent connection, the administrator

performs direct management (p. 387).

Consolidation

Combining two or more subsequent backups (p. 382) belonging to the same archive (p. 382) into a

single backup.

Consolidation might be needed when deleting backups, either manually or during cleanup (p. 386).

For example, the retention rules require to delete a full backup (p. 390) that has expired but retain

the next incremental (p. 390) one. The backups will be combined into a single full backup which will

be dated with the incremental backup's date. Since consolidation may take a lot of time and system

resources, retention rules provide an option to not delete backups with dependencies. In our

example, the full backup will be retained until the incremental one also becomes obsolete. Then both

backups will be deleted.

Deduplicating vault

A managed vault (p. 390) in which deduplication (p. 386) is enabled.

Deduplication

A method of storing different duplicates of the same information only once.

Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 can apply the deduplication technology to backup archives (p. 382)

stored on storage nodes (p. 392). This minimizes storage space taken by the archives, backup traffic

and network usage during backup.
