Read the first 7 Backup Scheduling & Automation flashcards as text

  1. In Acronis, which backup format (.tib vs .tibx) supports the 'Always Incremental (Single-File)' scheme?

    Answer: .tibx only

    The .tibx format is required for the Always Incremental (Single-File) scheme, as it supports the new backup engine's continuous data management.

  2. An Acronis backup plan has retention set to 'Keep 5 versions.' After the 6th backup completes, what happens automatically?

    Answer: The oldest backup version is deleted

    When the retention limit is reached, Acronis automatically deletes the oldest backup version after a new one is successfully created.

  3. Which Acronis scheduling option allows a backup to run only when the device is connected to AC power and not on battery?

    Answer: Power condition start condition

    The power condition start condition in Acronis prevents backup jobs from running when a laptop or device is on battery power.

  4. What is the key difference between backup replication and backup to multiple locations in Acronis?

    Answer: Replication copies data after backup completes; multiple locations back up simultaneously to each target

    Replication is a post-backup copy operation, while backing up to multiple locations writes to each destination during the initial backup process.

  5. In Acronis Cyber Protect, how does the 'Do not back up if' condition differ from the 'Back up only if' condition?

    Answer: 'Do not back up if' skips the backup when a condition is true; 'Back up only if' requires the condition to be true before backing up

    'Do not back up if' skips the job when a blocking condition exists, while 'Back up only if' acts as a prerequisite that must be met.

  6. What Acronis Cyber Protect feature enables automatic backup validation after each backup job completes?

    Answer: Post-backup verification

    Post-backup verification in Acronis automatically checks the backup's integrity after the job finishes to confirm recoverability.

  7. Which Acronis protection plan setting controls how long Acronis waits before marking a backup job as failed when connectivity to storage is lost?

    Answer: Connection timeout

    The connection timeout setting determines how long Acronis waits for storage connectivity before declaring a backup job failed.
