Command line - Convert Full
I’m looking for some guidance on using the command line to convert an incremental to a full. The background is as follows:
StrogeNode: MyStorageNodeName (Note: The management server and the storage node are the same server)
Network location of Centralised Vault: \\MyNAS\SharedFolder\AcronisBackup
Centralised Vault Name: AcronisBackup
Archive name: MySrv(1)
Archive Encrypted: Yes
I want to convert incremental backup (named Backup #2) to a full backup (there is already a full backup present called Backup #1). The command I’m running is:
“acrocmd convert full --loc=bsp://MyStorageServerName/AcronisBackup --credentials=DomainName\administrator,******* --arc=MySrv(1) --backup="Backup #2
This fails with the following error:
An error occurred while executing the command.
Error: 0x1510008
$module = "acrocmd_vs_38350"
Tag: 0x7A8E520180FDC065
Failed to reindex location bsp://MyStorageServerName/AcronisBackup’.
Error: 0xA100E2
IsReturnCode = 1 (0x1),
$module = "disk_bundle_vs_38350"
Tag: 0xB320396ADFE3DAB
Cannot get location settings.
Error: 0xA10003
$module = "disk_bundle_vs_38350"
Tag: 0x7C1C5CBE34248C5D
Any help appreciated

Hi Fedor,
Thanks for your response.
OK, I managed to find the GUID of the incremental archive and successfully converted the incremental to a full using the acrocmd. Is there any way this can be done that doesn’t involve a search for the GUID before I can run the convert command? What I was hoping to achieve was to periodically convert incrementals to full through a script or batch file but if I have to specify a changing GUID each time I don’t see how this is possible.
If on the other hand I could specify a known name like “backup #x” (where x is a variable I can specify) in the script then I could just set the script to run every x number of days.
Thanks again
Paul

If the parameter is omitted, the last backup will be used - http://www.acronis.com/support/documentation/ABR11.5/index.html#12004.h… . In other cases you have to specify GUID - there are no other options, other that writing your own script to parse acrocmd output to pick the necessary GUID.
