When you manually validate a tib in MY Backups-does ATHI 2011 validate ALL found tibs ?

Thread needs solution

Having an issue with ATHI 2011 (current) and manual validations.  Is the issue here the same as in the following archive thread I found searching "validation":

My issue is single tib validation that used to take 20-30 minutes max are now taking hours ?

Thanks...TRinAZ

Does TI 10 Validate the Entire Backup Location?

-------------------------

Yesterday I decided to check the progress of a backup archive I was creating with TI 10.

Some details: I setup a Backup Location on a second internal hard disk. In this Backup Location I make daily full images of my system partition, with a limit of seven images. So far, this arrangement has been working great. TI is setup to validate an image after its creation.

When I took a look at the 'progress meter' for my backup I couldn't believe what I was seeing: The backup was on the image validation step, and there was 1 hour and 17 minutes left! When I image my system partition manually, the whole thing, with validation, takes about 8 minutes.

Is TI 10 validating the entire Backup Location every time a new image is added?

Yes, it validates the entire Backup Location Folder, each and every time. Some time ago I had some back and forth emails with Acronis Support, and I'm sort of maybe a little bit tentatively hopeful that they might consider thinking about perhaps correcting this in the next release. Maybe.

ATI validates all archives of a chain of backups, from the last full.

From earlier posts, I understand that ATI may validate all archives when they are stored in the Acronis Secure Zone, but I have never tested this.
