ACRONIS TRUE IMAGE - VIRTUAL EDITION User manual

Acronis®True Image Virtual Edition™
Acronis®True Image
Virtual Edition™
Is your oranization’s IT infrastructure ready for the world of virtualization?
Virtualization technology enables an IT organization to
consolidate physical servers and save money. With virtualization,
you can run multiple concurrent operating systems on a single
physical server; each of the operating systems runs as a
self-contained computer.
Acronis®True Image Virtual Edition™is a full-functioned, cost-effective,
and scalable solution for IT organizations that need to backup, migrate,
or test five or more virtual servers on a single, physical server - for one
price. There is no limit or additional charges for backing up and restoring
incremental new virtual machines.
Whether your organization is backing up five or 100 virtual servers, as
long as they all reside on the same physical server, the cost remains the
same! Virtual Edition delivers real disaster recovery price/performance.
While Acronis True Image Virtual Edition disaster recovery software
is used to ensure the availability of data today, maintaining a copy
of your digital assets goes beyond simple backup and restore.
Today, as virtualization becomes more popular, IT organizations are
using “backup images” for migration to and from virtual servers -
or between operating systems.
Uses include staging new servers before they go live, testing
the performance impact of adding a new application to a server,
and load balancing to easily move the assets between servers.
The ability to proactively use the created disk image in ways
beyond disaster recovery provides new value to the organization.
With Acronis True Image, you can rapidly create server images
while your systems are online and without significant impact
on user activity. You can then restore the images in minutes,
not hours or days.
Acronis True ImageVirtual Edition includes Acronis®Universal Restore™.
Acronis Universal Restore* will allow you to recover server images
to dissimilar virtual hardware, regardless of the operating system or
installed components.
