True Image for SBS corrupt TIB

Thread needs solution

Hi,

We are having issues trying to recover data for a server crash, our latest acronis true image for SBS tib file was created on the 28th of August 2013 but it only complete halfway and now we have a corrupt image but need to recover any data that may be on the file.

We are trying to find out if this would be possible, any help would be appreciated.

What is "SBS"?

Where is the backup image located?

Boot from the bootable Rescue Media and vvalidate that image.

"Corrupted" is, unfortunately, a rather non-specific error message, in spite of its rather specific sounding term. It really just means that ATI can't validate the archive, which can be caused by disk errors or connection errors, rather than any problems with the .tib file itself.

Validation failure is often due to hardware issues. To troubleshoot, see Grover's new backup and restore guides http://forum.acronis.com/forum/29618 and http://kb.acronis.com/content/1517

Run chkdsk /r on each partition of the internal drive, and on the external HD. If there are hidden partitions, assign letters to them so you can chkdsk.
Also run a drive checking utility from the drive manufacturer, as those sometimes catch errors missed by chkdsk.

Don't connect via a hub, a port in a monitor, a USB extension cord, etc. Connect the external drive directly to a USB port on the rear of the computer case.
