Example 1. Replicating backups to a network folder

Consider the following scenario:

• You want to perform a full backup of your machine manually.
• You want to store the backups in Acronis Secure Zone on the machine.
• You want to store a copy of the backups in a network folder.

In this scenario, create a backup plan with the Manual start scheme. When creating the backup plan, specify Acronis Secure Zone in the Path field, select Full in the Backup type field, select the Replicate just created backup to another location check box, and then specify the network folder in the 2nd location field.

Result:

• You can recover the machine’s volumes or files from a readily available local backup, which is stored in a dedicated area of the hard disk.
• You can recover the machine from the network folder if the machine’s hard disk drive fails.
