Acronis backup and recovery advanced - recover files from tape - Volume backup
Hi all,
I purchased acronis backup and recovery 10 advance and use it with my tape autoloader to perform volume backup.
I have created centralized vault from storage node option/menu which refer to my autoloader
All my backup/archive store in centralized vault.
Backup process works good, but i'm having a problem restoring.
From the volume backup i do every night, i can't restore specific files/folders. If i want to restore specific files/folders, i have to restore the entire volume.
I have spent 3 days with the Acronis technical support, but no luck.
They reckon you can't restore specific files/folders from volume backup if you are using tape..
Is it true? what do i do wrong?
I have read acronis user guide but can;t find anything.
If i want to restore specific files/folders, i have to use "files backup" option instead of "volume/disks" option.
Please help.. am i missing step here? or i'm totally stupid..

Hi all,
Just received confimation from acronis:
1. they do not support retention rule for tape library
2. Can't restore files from volume backup
as conclusion, i have requested a refund from my supplier as this product is a dead end for me.
Thank you for all the help
