5 Recovery
When it comes to data recovery, first consider the most functional method: connect the console to
the managed machine running the operating system and create the recovery task.
If the machine's operating system fails to start or you need to recover data to bare metal, boot the
machine from the bootable media (p. 265) or using Acronis Startup Recovery Manager and configure
recovery.
Acronis Universal Restore lets you recover and boot up operating systems on dissimilar hardware or
a virtual machine.
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 enables you to transfer Windows operating systems between
BIOS-based hardware and hardware that supports Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI). See
the "Recovering BIOS-based systems to UEFI-based and back" (p. 118) section for more details.
A Windows system can be brought online in seconds while it is still being recovered. Using the
proprietary Acronis Active Restore (p. 122) technology, Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 will boot the
machine into the operating system found in the backup as if the system were on the physical disk.
The system becomes operational and ready to provide necessary services. Thus, the system
downtime will be minimal.
A dynamic volume can be recovered over an existing volume, to unallocated space of a disk group, or
to unallocated space of a basic disk. To learn more about recovering dynamic volumes, please turn to
the "Backup and recovery of dynamic volumes (Windows)" (p. 29) section.
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 Agent for Windows has the ability to recover a disk (volume) backup
to a new virtual machine. See the "Recovery to the "New virtual machine" destination" (p. 141)
section for more details.
You might need to prepare target disks before recovery. Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 includes a
handy disk management utility which enables you to create or delete volumes, change a disk
partitioning style, create a disk group and perform other disk management operations on the target
hardware, both under the operating system and on bare metal. To find out more about Acronis Disk
Director LV, see "Disk management" (p. 182).
