Restore .tibx file on different machine

Thread needs solution

I am using Acronis True Image 2020. One of my colleague created a disk image of his external drive by using Acronis True Image 2020. Now I would like to restore that .tibx image to different External HD by using different PC. What i have done: I have created Acronis bootable Media . Booted from ISO. However in the section of recovery (after i select the image) I got an error message saying "This is not the last volume of backup archive" Question: 01. Is this right approach ? I required to restore .tibx image to another external drive 02. If not , Please can you advice me what i must follow ? Thank you regards

Lakshan, welcome to these public User Forums.

All the .tibx files for any backup must be present for a recovery.  What files do you have here?

Hello Steve, 

Thank you for reply.  I have  file called Backup.tibx. ( received the file from my colleague ). Now I am trying to restore the Backup.tibx file to another external drive using different PC.

Info: Backup.tibx image taken from an external drive my colleague used.

01. Created a boot usb device using  acronis and boot a machine with that.

02. Navigate to recovery tab

select the backup.tibx from external  drive

 

 

 

When i select OK, i get bellow error message

Thank you again.

 

Question: "All the .tibx files for any backup must be present for a recovery." Does it means Acronis creates other files than backup.tibx ?

I don't know the reason behind that, but requiring previous backup files to be present is not good.

OK if I am creating differential or incremental backups. 

But for full backups, this is not good. If it is full I should not need previous versions to restore my disks. 

Acronis should revise that!

And what is going on with the speed???? It used to take 20 minutes to restore my full disk. Now it is taking 4 hours?????????? 

Please, what is going on Acronis?????

I wish I had not deleted my good old .tib backup jobs!!

Oh nice, it has just increased to 5 hours.

44gigs compressed. 

About 100gigs of data if I am not mistaken.

 

Progress bar is at around 30%.

Time left has gone up, down, up again. It is just crazy.

Started at 4 hours, then 5 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours again, 6 MINUTES, 3 hours, 2 hours, 53 minutes, 5 hours, 46 minutes, 2 hours!!

Really nice huh?

cmr, the progress bar is notoriously inaccurate but unless there are other factors at work here, it should still be capable of achieving a similar restore time to that you have seen for the same data to the same drive in previous versions of ATI.

If you really do want to still use .tib Disk backups, then there is a way of doing so in ATI 2020 if you are willing to do some simple editing.

See forum topic: How to create a Disk backup as .tib (not .tibx) which will create a new backup task using the older .tib format in the Windows ATI 2020 GUI.

Hello cmr,

I've registered your feedback as a vote for the change request  TI-190052 Independent Full backups.

Regarding the performance issue - if you have some time for investigation, I'd recommend raising a support ticket. Alternatively, we'd be grateful if you could send us the log files from your machine (please use the Feedback option and mark Attach system report). Please also include your settings in the backup plan (source and target\ is validation enabled? size of backed up data?)
