Manual start scheme

With the Manual start scheme, the backup will not start automatically. You can run the backup plan from the Backup plans and tasks view manually at any time afterwards.

For the description of the common settings for this backup scheme, such as setting up backup replication and validation see the "Backup" section of the product help system or guides for Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5.

The specific setting for this scheme is the Backup type, which is accessible by clicking Show backup type, 2nd location, validation.

The available backup types depend on the data type selected for backup: Microsoft Exchange Information Store or Microsoft Exchange Mailboxes.

• Microsoft Exchange Information Store: For this data type choose one of the following backup types:
  • Full. Selected by default. Creates regular full database backups.

    Optionally, you can choose how to create full backups by using one of the following methods:

    • Create full backups using the Express full backup method (available if a deduplicating vault is selected as a backup destination) - creates full backups by backing up only the changes that have occurred since the last full backup. For more information, see "Express full backup method".
    • Copy-only backup - creates full database backups without truncating the transaction log files. For more information, see "Copy-only backup".
  • Transaction log. Creates transaction log backups. Initially, a regular full database backup is created.
• Microsoft Exchange Mailboxes: For this data type choose one of the following backup types:
  • Full backup. Creates full mailbox backups.
  • Incremental backup. Creates incremental mailbox backups. Initially, a full mailbox backup is created.
