Universal restore backup damaged

Thread needs solution

hi,

1 month ago, i've done an image universal restore on usb dock hdd station. (2011 updated)

This morning, i just wanted to uptade it.

I click on "backup now" and got an error message : "damaged backup"and Acronis start running on its own..

1/ Does this uptade will fix the causes of error message ?
2/ How can i check if the backup is safe ?

Tks a lot...

If your backup doesn't pass validation, you can consider the backup corrupt.

Check http://kb.acronis.com/content/1517

If you update to 2011 in place, I suggest you start a new backup task.

tks a lot....for your reply

As a test to restore, can i do that on another computer ?
Just to see if universal restore is working, afterwards, i 'll erase all data regarding licence policy.

If your question about whether you can do it is related to licensing, it seems you have answered your own question :-)

If not, do you need any help with Universal Restore?

One thing to remember is that you will need the uncompressed drivers necessary for the target computer (disk controller, chipset) during the restore.

ok many tks..
