Good day Alexey,

Here is the details u request for.

1) take 1 normal PC with win XP.
2) Install Scsi Card and attach tape drive to that PC.
3) Install Acronis Corp Worksatation's management console , Storage server , and bootable media builder to the PC.
4) Then i create 1 set of bootable cd using bootable media builder.
5) I rebbot the pc and use the cd to boot and bacup straight to tape drive.

I can c my tape drive atach to pc , but when i choose the tape drive as destination to save my image and run the backup, i receive the error msg "Image creation completed with error" and for ur info i receive this msg within few second i start the backup.

I read some artical and user manual for this product tell that this software can support server os , pc os ,scsi hdd,tape drive and lot more.but i wonder y i cant backup to my tape drive.

Hope u can help me on this matter.

 

Hello bhaskaran,

Have you tried to create the image and store it to the tape drive under Windows? What was the result?

Thank you.

Hi Ilya,Thank for ur quick reply.

For your info, i can backup to tape from windows mode.But i prefer backup from bootable CD.it is because when backup from windows mod,there are alot of services running and im afraid the backup wont work 100%.Is it this corp workstation can only backup straight to tape drive from windows mode?

 

Hello bhaskaran,

Acronis True Image Corporate Workstation should allow you to back up to tapes both under Windows and using Acronis Bootable CD. Have you tried to create the image using Acronis Bootable CD and store the image somewhere else (for example, on the local hard drive)? What build of Acronis True Image Corporate Workstation did you use to create Acronis Bootable CD (this number can be found in "Help" -> "About" after you boot the computer with the CD)?

Thank you.
