What I need ?. A Dummie guide, please

Hello !

Can you tell me if is possible restore a .tib file stored on a PC in my local network ?. How I could do it and what software I need ?
I have tried booting my PC with the TI CD but I don't see the network and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks

 

What version and build of TI do you have?

 

Posting your computer specifications may also help (motherboard, chipset, network card/controller, etc.).

Do you have a router or computer on your network that automatically assigns addresses (DHCP)? If not, then you'd have to manually setup the network settings in TI (assuming it recognizes your network card/chipset).

Assuming everything is supported and working correctly, it is possible to restore an image from over a network. I've done it many times.

 

Hello!

I use Acronis TI 9.1 and i haven't a router or computer on my network that automatically assigns addresses.

How I could set manually the network settings in TI?.



Thanks

 

Hello MBAnne,

Thank you for choosing Acronis Corporate Disk Backup Software.

Please see chapter 7.1.1 "Network settings in rescue mode" of the respective User's Guide for detailed instructions.

If the issue persists, please make sure you use the latest build of the respective version of Acronis True Image. To get access to updates you should first register your software. Don't forget to recreate Acronis Bootable Rescue Media after updating.

If updating doesn't solve the problem, please try booting with "acpi=off noapic" parameter as it is described in Acronis Help Post.

If the problem persists, please collect some information to let us investigate it thoroughly:

- Boot the computer from Acronis Bootable Rescue Media, remove the "quiet" parameter and wait for # prompt to appear;
- Insert a diskette in a floppy disk drive and issue the following commands;

cd tmp
mkdir mntdir
mount /devfs/floppy/0 mntdir
cat /proc/net/dev > mntdir/net.txt
asamba dhcp -n > asa_dhcp.txt
asamba masters > asa_mast.txt
sysinfo > mntdir/sysinfo.txt
umount mntdir

- Collect the net.txt, asa_dhcp.txt, asa_mast.txt and sysinfo.txt files from the diskette.

Please also collect the exact vendor and device names of the network card you use.

Then submit a request for technical support. Attach all the collected files and information to your request along with the step-by-step description of the actions taken before the problem appears and the link to this thread. We will investigate the problem and try to provide you with a solution.

Thank you.

Can you please describe how your network is setup?
How many computers?
Are you using a hub or a switch?
Are you sharing an internet connection? If so, how is it connected?
Are network addresses manually assigned?

When booted from the cd into the Full mode of TI, select the Tools menu and then Options. The network settings should be listed under the card (if it's detected). If you need to manually set the settings, then uncheck the "Auto configuration" checkbox.

 

Oops!

Sorry. I'm a stupid. I was not trying with the lastest build.

thanks to all for your answer

 

Well, he may not have needed to know how to set the IP on the Recovery CD, but I had never noticed this. So, thank you.
