Page 148 highlights

Physically, a backup plan is a bundle of tasks (p. 151) configured for execution on a managed machine (p. 151). A backup plan can be created directly on the machine (local plan). Backup scheme A part of the backup plan that includes the backup schedule and [optionally] the retention rules and the cleanup schedule. For example: perform full backup (p. 150) monthly on the last day of the month at 10:00AM. Delete backups that are older than 3 months. Check for such backups every time the backup operation is completed. Bootable agent A bootable rescue utility that includes most of the functionality of the Acronis Backup & Recovery Server OEM Agent. Bootable agent is based on Linux kernel. A machine (p. 151) can be booted into a bootable agent using bootable media. Operations can be configured and controlled either locally through the GUI or remotely using the console. Bootable media A physical media (CD, DVD, USB flash drive or other media supported by a machine (p. 151) BIOS as a boot device) that contains the bootable agent or Windows Preinstallation Environment (WinPE) with the Acronis Plug-in for WinPE (p. 146). A machine can also be booted into the above environments using the network boot from Microsoft Remote Installation Service (RIS). These servers with uploaded bootable components can also be thought of as a kind of bootable media. Bootable media is most often used to:  recover an operating system that cannot start  access and back up the data that has survived in a corrupted system  deploy an operating system on bare metal  create basic or dynamic volumes (p. 150) on bare metal  back up sector-by-sector a disk that has an unsupported file system  back up offline any data that cannot be backed up online because of restricted access, being permanently locked by the running applications or for any other reason. C Console (Acronis Backup & Recovery Server OEM Management Console) A tool for local access to Acronis agents. D Direct management Any management operation that is performed on a managed machine (p. 151) using the direct console-agent connection. The direct management operations include:  creating and managing local backup plans (p. 150)

Physically, a backup plan is a bundle of tasks (p. 151) configured for execution on a managed
machine (p. 151).
A backup plan can be created directly on the machine (local plan).
Backup scheme
A part of the backup plan that includes the backup schedule and [optionally] the retention rules and
the cleanup schedule. For example: perform full backup (p. 150) monthly on the last day of the
month at 10:00AM. Delete backups that are older than 3 months. Check for such backups every time
the backup operation is completed.
Bootable agent
A bootable rescue utility that includes most of the functionality of the Acronis Backup & Recovery
Server OEM Agent. Bootable agent is based on Linux kernel. A machine (p. 151) can be booted into a
bootable agent using bootable media. Operations can be configured and controlled either locally
through the GUI or remotely using the console.
Bootable media
A physical media (CD, DVD, USB flash drive or other media supported by a machine (p. 151) BIOS as a
boot device) that contains the bootable agent or Windows Preinstallation Environment (WinPE) with
the Acronis Plug-in for WinPE (p. 146). A machine can also be booted into the above environments
using the network boot from Microsoft Remote Installation Service (RIS). These servers with
uploaded bootable components can also be thought of as a kind of bootable media.
Bootable media is most often used to:
recover an operating system that cannot start
access and back up the data that has survived in a corrupted system
deploy an operating system on bare metal
create basic or dynamic volumes (p. 150) on bare metal
back up sector-by-sector a disk that has an unsupported file system
back up offline any data that cannot be backed up online because of restricted access, being
permanently locked by the running applications or for any other reason.
C
Console (Acronis Backup & Recovery Server OEM Management Console)
A tool for local access to Acronis agents.
D
Direct management
Any management operation that is performed on a managed machine (p. 151) using the direct
console-agent connection.
The direct management operations include:
creating and managing local backup plans (p. 150)
