About Windows loaders
Windows NT/2000/XP/2003
A part of the loader resides in the partition boot sector, the rest is in the files ntldr, boot.ini,
ntdetect.com, ntbootdd.sys. boot.ini is a text file that contains the loader configuration. Ex ample:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional"
/noexecute=optin /fastdetect
Windows Vista/2008
A part of the l oade r resides in the partition boot sector, the rest is in the files bootmgr, boot\bcd. At
starting Windows, boot\bcd is mounted to the registry key HKLM \BCD00000000.
6.3.12 Recovering the storage node
In addition to backing up data to centralized vaults managed by Acronis Backup & Recovery 10
Storage Node, you may want to perform a disk backup of the machine where the storage node itself
is installed.
This section describes how to recover the storage node registered on the management server in case
the storage node and the management server are installed on different machines (if they are
installed on the same machine, simply recover that machine).
Consider the following scenario:
You have a machine with the management server and a machine with the storage node.
The storage node is registered on the management server.
You backed up the machine with the storage node earlier, and have just recovered it—either on
the same machine or on a different machine.
Before using the recovered storage node, follow these steps:
If you have recovered the storage node on the same machine and no centralized vaults managed
by the storage node have been added or removed between the backup and recovery, do nothing.
Otherwise, do the following:
1. Connect to the management server and remove the storage node from it.
Note: All vaults managed by the storage node will also be removed from the management server. No
archives will be lo st.
2. Add the storage node to the management server again, by specifiying the machine on which
the recovered storage node is installed.
3. Re-create the necessary managed vaults.
6.4 Validating vaults, archives and backups
Validation is an operation that checks the possibility of data recovery from a backup.
Validation of a file backup imitates recovery of all files from the backup to a dummy destination.
Validation of a disk or volume backup calculates a checksum for every data block saved in the
backup. Both procedures are resource-intensive.
