Local Copy and Online Archiv with Initial Seeding

Thread needs solution

Hello,

How can I configure having a local Archive and an online Archive with Initial seeding?

Is it possible to create an Initial seeding backup plan and change the plan afterwards to GFS scheme with a local archive and replicate to online storage?
Or must I use 2 plans... one for online (with seeding) and one for a local archive?

How does this work?

Thanks in advance

Hallo Andreas Müller,

Thank you for posting this question in our forum. I am happy to assist you.

When using Initial Seeding for your online backup you need to use two backup plans. The first is the Online Backup plan, the second the backup plan to local destination. If you have a full product license and an online backup subscription, you can use the second destination feature in one backup plan. See Replication and retention of backups.

If you need additional assistance, please create a system report of the affected machine and contact support. You will find all available support options in our Customer handbook.

If there is anything else we can do for you, please let me know.

Thank you.

When I check my backup of an Outlook pst file in the Acronis Cloud after an update, I see a date on the file that is several hours after the date on the file on my computer. For example, right now the pst file on my computer says it was updated today (6/22) at 5:24 PM Eastern Standard Time (Washington DC area) but the copy on the cloud says it was updated today at 9:24 PM. Given that discrepancy, I don't really know if the file got backed up or not. If I start the application and do a manual sync, I get the right date. Has anyone had a similar experience? Know what is happening? For example, when Acronis updates the file aumatically, is it using the time in a different time zone? Note that the minutes are the same, but the online version indicates it was made 4 hours later than the time that I last updated the file! Thanks in advance for any help on this issue.

Lawrence, I don't work here, but I'm a programmer and have seen these types of questions quite often. But the discrepancy of four hours says to me that the time at the acronis server is in GMT, which would be 4 hours ahead of our time zone (EDT). I'm from Toronto. If this is correct, this means that the files are very closely in sync.
