different compression rates in Backup & Recovery Workstation 10

Thread needs solution

Hello,

Acronis True Image did support to select the compression rate upon making a backup image.

Now we are evaluating Backup & Recovery Workstation 10 and cannot find that feature anymore.

Question:
Is that feature well hidden in Backup & Recovery Workstation 10 or simpy not anymore available?

Thank's a lot!

Hello John,

Thank you for posting. I will certainly help you with your question.

There are two ways to enable compression in Acronis Backup and Recovery 10 Workstation.

Globally:

This will apply for all backups. From the main program menu from the top toolbar click on Options->Default backup and recovery options->Default backup options->Compression level.

Locally, for each specific backup task:

From the main program menu click on Back Up-> Scroll to the bottom to Backup options-> Click on Change-> Compression level.

I have also attached two screenshots that show these settings in more detail.

You can also refer to this KB article for more information.

Please let me know if you need additional assistance.

Thank you.

Hi,

i need to calculate the compression rates for each level before i start my backups.

I dont have so much space free actually.

Is there a algorithm to calculate that?

Welcome to the forum and thank you for posting. I will definitely help you with your question.

There are no utilities that calculate backup compression, however, we have several examples available in this KB article that can assist you with calculating the required space that you need.
