Tab. 7-10: Information in the "About" dialog 7.2.2 Enhanced write filter The integrated enhanced write filter (EWF) protects partitions from write ac‐ cess. The data to be written is sent to the working memory. After a restart, the system is reset to the defined basic state. Another advantage of the EWF is the reduced number of write access to the Compact Flash card, thus, in‐ creasing the service life of the card. Therefore, the EWF should always be enabled except for installations and operating system settings!

The enhanced write filter and the file-based write filter should not run simultaneously on the same partition, as the EWF blocks the write access of the FBWF and the changes are lost when the computer is restarted. Enhanced write filter – Windows XP Embedded

Devices with Windows XP Embedded are provided with an ena‐ bled enhanced write filter upon delivery.

Use the EWF in Windows XP Embedded to protect the system partition "C:\" from write access. Enable/disable the EWF with the EWF control tool. Open the EWF control tool via the start menu: Start ▶ All Pro‐ grams ▶ Rexroth ▶ IndraControl V ▶ EWFCtrl. The following dialog is displayed:

This includes: ● Overlay type (corresponds to the “RAM overlay mode”) ● Current EWF status (EWF_DISABLED or EWF_ENABLED) ● Pending EWF command The EWF enable button enables the write protection for the "C:\" partition. A system restart is required. The EWF commit&disable live button is used to write the changes - made in the system since the last restart - to the Compact Flash card (commit) and to cancel the write protection for the "C:\" partition. This action is executed im‐ mediately and no reboot is required.

The write protection has to be cancelled for the system settings of the operating system and for the installation of the interface. Enable the EWF again afterwards!

Enhanced write filter – Windows 7 Embedded Standard Use the enhanced write filter (EWF) to protect the system partitions "C:\" or "D:\" from write access in Windows 7 Embedded Standard. Enable/disable the EWF using the EWF management tool.

When the EWF is enabled, ensure that the applications do not write to the system partition to prevent the working memory from being "flooded".

To use the EWF manager in the command line, open the com‐ mand line window with administrator rights! Proceed as follows: 1. Press Start to open the start menu 2. Enter "Cmd" into the "Search programs/files" search box 3. Next, select "Cmd" in the search results, right-click to open the context menu and select "Run as administrator" 4.

Fig. 7-22: Enhanced Write Filter – Commit To disable the EWF on a partition, select the partition on which an active EWF is to be disabled in the upper section and select the “Pending” com‐ mand "Commit and disable live" in the lower section.

As the EWF volume information is stored in the registry, exit the EWF with "Commit and disable live" to apply the status informa‐ tion "EWF disabled" to the registry.

Possible error: Exiting the EWF with "disable" fails. After a restart, EWF is active again. The cause is that the EWF volume informa‐ tion (EWF status, etc.) is stored in the registry. The "Commit" command is required to write the information on the deactivation to the registry.

Disabling the EWF via the command line Alternatively, the EWF can also be disabled via the command line tool "EWF manager". See exemplarily the entry required to disable the EWF on the "C:" partition: ewfmgr c: -commitanddisable -live After the next restart, EWF is disabled. EWF commit If the EWF is enabled, the pending command "Commit" has to be executed in the EWF management tool in the configuration to transfer data from the over‐ lay in the working memory to the Compact Flash card. Executing EWF commit via the command line Alternatively, execute the EWF commit command using the command line tool "EWF manager".

The "file- based write filter" provides access protection on file level. It can be used to define exceptions to grant direct write access to the storage medium to indi‐ vidual files or folders.

The file-based write filter in the IndraControl VEP devices is ena‐ bled with Windows Embedded Standard 7 upon delivery. Before installing the applications or copying data to the data carrier, disa‐ ble the file-based write filter. After the changes, enable the file- based write filter again.

General information when using the file-based write filter The file-based write filter issues an error message when files are moved from protected partitions to unprotected partitions and when deleted files or new folders are committed.

To use the command line tool C:\Windows\Sys- tem32\fbwfMgr.exe, open the command line window with ad‐ ministrator rights! Proceed as follows: 1. Press Start to open the start menu. 2. Enter "Cmd" into the "Search programs/files" search box. 3. Next, select "Cmd" in the search results, right-click to open the context menu and select "Run as administrator". 4. Click on Yes to confirm the user account control prompt. For further information on fbwfMgr.exe, enter "fbwfMgr.exe /help" into the command line window (administrator rights required)! Quick activation and deactivation for the use with IndraWorks To quickly enable or disable the file-based write filter in IndraWorks, two files (FBWF_Enable.cmd and FBWF_Disable.cmd) are provided under "C:\Sup‐ port\Rexroth". Execute them with administrator rights. Enable the file-based write filter⇒ C:\Support\Rexroth\FBWF_Enable.cmd The file "FBWF_Enable.cmd" executes the following Cmd commands: ● fbwfmgr /enable ● fbwfmgr /addvolume C: ● fbwfmgr /addexclusion C: "\Users\" ● fbwfmgr /addexclusion C: \ProgramData\Rexroth

To enter exceptions for the program folder, enter the path and folder names in English, e.g.: fbwfmgr /addexclusion C: "\Program Files\My Fold- er" Ensure that the folder paths are always entered in quotation marks due to the included spaces.

This example can be used as template for your own configuration.

Fig. 8-16: Extended layout of the Windows 10 touch keyboard 8.4.4 Configuration tools Unified Write Filter The unified write filter (UWF) protects flash memory media. If the UWF is en‐ abled, all writing attempts to the protected areas of the flash memory are re‐ directed to a virtual memory area, the so-called overlay. The original data re‐ main untouched on the flash memory. If data from the overlay should still be available after switching off the device, execute the “Commit” command. The write filter on partition level is enabled as the file-based write filter of Win‐ dows Embedded Standard 7. Exceptions can be defined for individual files or folders to allow writing to these areas. Furthermore, certain registry keys and registry folders can also be defined as exceptions. Ready configuration scripts are provided for the use with IndraWorks. Use these configuration scripts as template for your own configurations.

The unified write filter for the IndraControl VEP devices with Win‐ dows 10 IoT Enterprise is not enabled upon delivery (for the con‐ figuration, refer to chapter "Quick activation and deactivation for the use with IndraWorks" on page 76). Before installing the ap‐ plications or copying data to the data carrier, disable the unified write filter. After the changes, enable the unified write filter again.

For detailed information on the mode of operation and the UWF options, go to the Microsoft websites!

Use in domain network: For the registry memory area to which the domain controller writes and enables domain access data cyclically, exceptions are defined in the UWF by default to ensure that possibly updated do‐ main data is not lost when restarting the device.

For bigger files to be directly saved to the flash memory, define exceptions in the UWF, as the overlay area of the UWF is "filled completely".

The UWF cannot be used to protect external USB flash memory media.

IndraControl VEP 15.6, VEP 21.6 Multi Touch, IndraControl VEP 30.6, 40.6, 50.6

Deleting files at active UWF: If the UWF is active and it is tried to delete files from a memory area defined as UWF exception, the deletion fails, as Windows tries to move the file to be deleted to the Recycle Bin. In this case, either define an exception for the Recycle Bin or delete the element with + and right-click on the element to be deleted. The file can also be deleted directly via the command line.

To use the command line tool C:\Windows\Sys- tem32\uwfmgr.exe, open the command line window with ad‐ ministrator rights! Proceed as follows: 1. Open the Windows Start menu. 2. Enter "Cmd" into the "Search programs/files" search box. 3. Next, select "Cmd" in the search results, right-click to open the context menu and select "Run as administrator". 4. Click on Yes to confirm the user account control prompt.

In contrast to the write filters under Windows Embedded Standard 7, there are no graphic tools anymore under Windows 10 IoT En‐ terprise to configure the UWF. As described. a configuration tool is used to configure in the command line. There are also no sta‐ tus displays of the tray anymore. For more configuration options, go to the "Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)". For more information, go to the Microsoft websites. Displaying the unified write filter status To display the UWF status on the device, enter the following command into the command line: uwfmgr.exe get-config The "Filter state" under "FILTER-SETTINGS" displays ON if the UWF is ena‐ bled and OFF if the UWF is disabled.

If the program uwfmgr.exe does not exist under C:\Windows \system32, the unified write filter was disabled completely. In this case, enable the UWF again as described in the following.

Quick activation and deactivation for the use with IndraWorks To quickly enable and disable the unified write filter in IndraWorks, two .cmd files are provided under "C:\Support\Rexroth". They have to be executed with administrator rights. Both scripts run the required commands and restart the device automatically to enable the UWF with the selected settings. These examples can be used as template for your own configurations! Enable unified write filter ⇒ "C:\Support\Rexroth\UWF_Enable.cmd" The file "UWF_Enable.cmd" executes the following Cmd commands: ● uwfmgr.exe filter enable ● uwfmgr.exe volume protect C:

Fig. 9-24: Configuration dialog of the UPS NT control software VPx simple mode The UPS NT control software provides two modes: ● Normal operation with fallback: The Enable VPx simple mode checkbox is not selected. Communication with the UPS takes place via the USB interface. If the communication is interrupted, two cases are distinguished: – If the Enable shutdown on COM fail checkbox is selected, the sys‐ tem is shut down – If the Enable shutdown on COM fail checkbox is not selected and if there is a connection to the UPS (input "U" of the control cabinet PC or panel PC to the 24 V input of the UPS), the system automat‐ ically switches to the simple mode (fallback) when the USB com‐ munication is interrupted. In this case, the battery icon of a panel PC in the turns red and the LED of the battery display on the front panel is red. At a control cabinet PC, the LED of a UPS is red ● Simple mode: The Enable VPx simple mode checkbox is selected. In this case, the Enable shutdown on COM fail dialog item is irrelevant. The UPS is "only" in “Simple” mode. There is no communication via the USB interface.

This scan can be required if the USB con‐ nection interface to the UPS was changed. Advanced controls ● Shutdown delay time Shutdown delay time defines the delay time for the shutdown. During this period, data can be backed up. If data is not saved, the applications are closed after the specified time without a prompt! ● Enable Startup Accu Test If Enable Startup Accu Test is selected, the UPS battery is tested upon each system restart. A message is displayed if errors occur during the test ● Disable UPS If Disable UPS is selected, the UPS function is switched off. This is only reasonable for testing and installation purposes ● Default Default values of the dialog elements can be preset using the Default button. Default values are: – Shutdown Delay Time: 30 seconds – Enable Startup Accu Test: Active – Disable UPS: Inactive Command In the Command group, an executable program (*.exe; *.bat) can be entered and activated, which should be started and executed after initializing the shutdown. This is reasonable if applications, which do not react on system- wide messages, are to be stopped to avoid data loss. Generally, the respective clearing and terminating programs are entered and activated here. If several programs are to be executed or if the programs are provided with transfer parameters, these programs have to be summarized and entered into a batch file.

NOTICE Faulty program processing if call parameters are used The entry must not contain any request parameters and the program must not initialize any shutdown!

● Disable sending QueryEndSession The"QueryEndSession" message is sent by the operating system to in‐ form on the shutdown of the system. The Disable sending QueryEnd‐ Session setting prevents that the system message "QueryEndSession" is sent to the whole system after voltage breakdown. This setting can only be enabled if the checkbox Execute command file is selected.

NOTICE There is no usable admin account on the de‐ vice anymore after deleting the user "Rexroth"! Windows integrated security mechanisms ensuring that there is at least one user account of the “Administrator” group. If the "Acronis Backup&Recovery" software is installed on the device, a so- called "Acronis Agent User" was created. Its passwords is secret and can on‐ ly be accessed from the Acronis "Backup&Recovery" software. This user is a member of the group "Administrators" thus causing that the user "Rexroth" can be deleted without Windows preventing this. Thus, before deleting the user "Rexroth", ensure that there is a usable admin‐ istrator account on the device!

Fig. 9-49: Extended layout of the Windows 10 touch keyboard 9.10 Unified write filter In Windows 10 IoT Enterprise, use the "unified write filter" to protect files or folders from write access. The overlay is referred to as cache in the following. The write filter on partition level is enabled as the file-based write filter of Win‐ dows Embedded Standard 7. Exceptions can be defined for individual files or folders to allow writing to these areas. Furthermore, certain registry keys and registry folders can also be defined as exceptions. Ready configuration scripts are provided for the use with IndraWorks. Use these configuration scripts as template for your own configurations.

The unified write filter for the IndraControl VEP devices with Win‐ dows 10 IoT Enterprise is not enabled upon delivery. (For the configuration, refer to chapter 9.10.2 "Quick activation and deac‐ tivation for the use with IndraWorks" on page 139"). Before in‐ stalling the applications or copying data to the data carrier, disa‐ ble the unified write filter. After the changes, enable the unified write filter again.

For detailed information on the mode of operation and the UWF options, go to the Microsoft websites!

Use in domain network: For the registry memory area to which the domain controller writes and enables domain access data cyclically, exceptions are defined in the UWF by default to ensure that possibly updated do‐ main data is not lost when restarting the device.

For bigger files to be directly saved to the flash, define exceptions in the UWF, as the overlay area of the UWF is "filled completely".

The UWF cannot be used to protect external USB flash memory media.

Deleting files at active UWF. If the UWF is active and it is tried to delete files from a memory area defined as UWF exception, the deletion fails, as Windows tries to move the file to be deleted to the Recycle Bin. In this case, either define an exception for the Recycle Bin or delete the element with + and the right mouse button. The file can also be deleted directly via the command line.

To use the command line tool C:\Windows\Sys- tem32\uwfmgr.exe, open the command line window with ad‐ ministrator rights! Proceed as follows: 1. Press "Start" to open the start menu. 2. Enter "Cmd" into the "Search programs/files" search box. 3. Next, select "Cmd" in the search results, right-click to open the context menu and select "Run as administrator". 4. Click on Yes to confirm the user account control prompt.

In contrast to the write filters under Windows Embedded Standard 7, there are no graphic tools anymore under Windows 10 IoT En‐ terprise to configure the UWF. As described, the configuration tool is used to configure in the command line. There are also no status displays of the tray anymore. For more configuration options, go to the "Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)". For more detailed information, refer to the Microsoft websites. 9.10.1 Displaying the unified write filter status To display the UWF status on the device, enter the following command into the command line: uwfmgr.exe get-config The "Filter state" under "FILTER-SETTINGS" displays ON if the UWF is ena‐ bled and OFF if the UWF is disabled.

If the program uwfmgr.exe does not exist under C:\Windows \system32, the unified write filter feature was disabled completely. In this case, enable the feature again as described in the follow‐ ing. 9.10.2 Quick activation and deactivation for the use with IndraWorks To quickly enable and disable the unified write filter in IndraWorks, two .cmd files are provided under "C:\Support\Rexroth". They have to be executed with administrator rights. Both scripts run the required commands and restart the device automatically to enable the UWF with the selected settings. These examples can be used as template for your own configurations!

Fig. 9-53: "Manage volume" view in the "Manage" window Hard drive failure If a hard drive fails, the software indicates the defective hard drive. In the ex‐ ample fig. 9-53 "Manage volume view in the Manage window" on page 144, the hard drive failed on port 2. This is displayed via "Internal empty port 2" (see ③). The position of hard drives in the device is described in chapter 9.12.4 "As‐ signing hard drives" on page 146. 9.12.3 Recovering a RAID volume The instructions in this section apply only to RAID volumes. If a RAID volume is reported as "degraded" or "failed" by the Intel Rapid Storage Technology (via the task bar icon in the management console), it is possible to recover the volume. If recovery is not possible, create the RAID volume again and re‐ store data manually from a backup. The following sections describe the differ‐ ent RAID error messages and the corresponding steps to recover the RAID configuration. Degraded RAID 1 volume A RAID 1 volume is reported as "degraded" when one of its members fails or is disconnected and data mirroring was lost. As a result of a degraded vol‐ ume, the system can only use the functional device. To set up data mirroring again and to restore data redundancy, refer to the following. Missing member 1. Ensure that the system is switched off. 2. Reconnect the missing hard drive. 3. Reboot the system. The rebuild is executed automatically. Failed member 1. Ensure that the system is switched off. 2. Replace the corrupt hard drive with a new one of equal or greater ca‐ pacity. Ensure that no partition and formatting information is present on the new hard drive.

RAID array A logical group of physical hard drives. Guideline to When a recovery volume is using this policy, data on the update on re‐ master hard drive is copied to the recovery hard drive upon quest request. Only the changes made since the last update are copied. RAID volume A fixed amount of memory distributed across a RAID array and handled as a single physical hard drive by the operating system. Each RAID volume is created with a specific RAID level to provide data redundancy or to increase storage per‐ formance. RAID level A defined set of characteristics applied to a RAID volume de‐ termining how data is stored and managed to improve the read/write performance or to increase the error tolerance. RAID level mi‐ The process of converting a data storage configuration of a gration system from one RAID level to another. RAID 0 Data in the RAID volume is distributed across the members (stripping) of the array. Stripping divides data into units and distributes these units across the members without generating data re‐ dundancy, but improving read/write performance. RAID 1 Data in the RAID volume is mirrored across the members of (mirroring) the array. The term "Mirroring" is used to describe the key function of RAID 1, which writes duplicate data to each mem‐ ber and thus creates data redundancy and increases the error tolerance. RAID 5 Data in the RAID volume and parity are distributed across the (stripping with members of the array. Parity information is written - together parity) with the data in a rotating sequence - to the members of the array. This RAID level is a preferred configuration for efficien‐ cy, error tolerance and performance.

Backup and recovery software

12 Backup and recovery software 12.1 Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 12.1.1 Introduction This chapter describes how to back up data of the entire system at IndraControl V-devices. Some IndraControl V-devices can be ordered with or without software for the data backup. Data backups can be created manually or automatically if the device was ordered with data backup software. We recommend to execute data backups cyclically to be able to restore the original state quickly in case of failure (e.g. defective hard disk). This chapter describes a data backup solution to back up and recover the operating system and the installed user programs (entire system) as a back‐ up of the partition or hard disk, but not as a "selective" backup of user data. However, Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 can also be used to back up indi‐ vidual files and directories.

This is a brief description based on the version "Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Update 5 (build 10.0.13762". For the complete docu‐ mentation of the Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 software, go to "C:\Support\Software\Acronis" or go to www.acronis.de/support/ documentation/legacy.html.

Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 is only provided in English.

After commissioning, we recommend a data backup.

Reason for data backup IT systems are no static systems. Data is continuously created, modified, moved or deleted. Components are added or removed, updates are made and settings are modified. There are many reasons to back up this data and settings: ● Storing data if a hardware fails ● Restoring the system environment after an incorrect operation ● Backing up the basic settings of a system ● Archiving a system state before updating ● Providing an identical system environment Defining hardware and software requirements IndraControl V-device If the device was ordered with data backup software, the "Acronis Backup & Recovery 10" software is installed in the "C:\Programme\Acronis" directory. To modify or repair the installation, open the program BackupRecoveryAd‐ vanced.13762_s_uk.exe in the "C:\Support\Software\Acronis" directory. The license key for a new installation is included in the license documentation. Backup media ● PC in the network (backup server) ● Internal or external USB CD/DVD burner ● External USB hard disk

The program creates an exact "image" of the hard disk or of individual partitions. In addition, the following content can be re‐ stored using the program: ● Operating Systems ● Programs and applications ● Personal data ● Settings Images can be stored on the hard disk, on writeable CDs, DVDs, USB disks and network resources. Image files can be extended incrementally. Thus, different backup states can be selected while recovering hard disks and partitions. Archive files Archive files have the extension "tib". These files contain the images of the partitions or hard disks. In addition, data of the partitions or the hard disk and information used for recovery are included. An archive file can contain im‐ ages of several partitions and hard disks. During the backup, data can be compressed and split into several image ar‐ chive files.

It is not recommended to archive images directly on removable media like CDs or DVDs, as there is no flow control of data. We recommend to split the image archive into the corresponding size during creation and to transmit the files after the backup to the re‐ movable medium and to validate them.

Images of partitions contain all files and directories irrespective of their prop‐ erties (hidden, system etc.), the Master Boot Record (MBR), the File Alloca‐ tion Table (FAT) and the root directory. In a partition image, only the hard disk sectors containing user data are saved. The image archives can be protected by a password. Full backup A full backup stores all data selected for backup. Each archive is based on a full backup. It is essential for incremental and differential backups. One ar‐ chive can contain multiple full backups or consist only of full backups. A full backup is independent, i.e. no access to any other backup is required to re‐ store data from the full backup. Incremental backup An incremental backup contains all changes made since the most recent backup. This can be a full backup or one or several incremental backups. If one full backup and multiple incremental backups were created. All these ar‐ chive files have to be available for recovery. If only one of the incremental

Backup and recovery software

backups (or even the full backup) was deleted, recovery is impossible, as all backups are based on each other. Another advantage of incremental backups: A partition from the image ar‐ chive can be recovered with different states generated from different imaging points in time. Not only the image of the last backup, but also the image cre‐ ated at a certain time in the past can be recovered. Differential backup A differential backup contains all changes made since the most recent full backup. To recover a differential backup, Acronis True Image requires the full backup and the differential extension. To start the software, click on the Manage Local Machine Desktop icon in Windows or use the rescue medium (see chapter 12.1.8 "Creating bootable rescue medium" on page 193).

Before creating the image, ensure that there is sufficient space on the target data carrier to store the image archive.

It is only allowed to backup data while the Windows operating system and the machine control are running after an explicit re‐ lease of the respective control system. Generally, we recommend to back up Windows system partitions via the bootable rescue medium while the Windows operating system is not running.

The main program window "Manage Local Machine" in Windows and on the rescue medium contains the Back up function. The rescue medium does not contain all options listed here. Click on this icon and the interface is displayed to create the backup plan:

Fig. 12-3: Acronis Backup & Recovery – Creating a backup plan Create backup plan General Plan name: Name of the backup plan used when managed in the Acronis backup for Windows. No backup plan is created on the rescue medium, but it is backed up immedi‐ ately. It is not possible to plan tasks here. What to back up Source type: Selection of the image type. Should create an image of drives, partitions or files. Items to back up: Select the drives, partitions or files to be backed up.

In this selection, the Acronis Secure Zone is displayed as well. However, it is not advisable to create an image of this section, as it only contains saved images. If the Acronis Secure Zone is not included in the backup, it has to be created again on a new hard disk after the backup recovery.

Bosch Rexroth AG R911343901_Edition 04 IndraControl V-Devices Operating Systems 187/217

Backup and recovery software

Where to back up Archive: Selection of the memory location and name of the image archive. How to back up Backup scheme: Selection when it is backed up. The image can be backed up once immediately (Backup now) or as a time-controlled task that can also be repeated (Back up later, Simple, Custom) for daily, weekly or monthly backups. For detailed information on other options, refer to the Acronis Back‐ up & Recovery 10 help function or the manual. The rescue medium only provides the "Back up now" scheme for an immedi‐ ate backup! Backup type: Selection whether a full, incremental or differential image is to be created.

Before the first incremental backup, there has to be a complete image.

Archive validation When to validate: Selection whether and when to validate the created image.

We strongly recommend to validate the image!

Backup options Settings: Selection of several image options. For example, set up password protection or divide the image into several image files to write the image to a DVD. In addition, set the degree of compression of the image file, define commands to be executed before and after the backup and specify the error behavior during the image creation. For detailed information on other options, refer to the Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 help function or the manual. The rescue medium only provides the selection whether to validate. Convert to VM When to convert: Selection whether and when an image is to be converted into a virtual machine (VM). The rescue medium does not provide this option. Backing up The previously created backup plan is displayed in Acronis under "Backup plans and tasks" including status information and started according to the settings. 12.1.4 Checking image archives Image archives back up or archive data. Thus, data integrity is the most im‐ portant property of an image archive. Therefore, check every image archive after its creation. Either set the backup plan accordingly or start the validation with the Validate button in the main program window of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10.

What to validate Item: Select whether an archive, backup or vault is to be validated. Vault: Selection of the archive, backup or vault to be validated. When to validate Validate: Selection of the validation starting time. Press OK to apply the task as in the settings made in "Backup plans and tasks".

If Acronis True Image detects an error, repeat the image creation. In this case, use another data carrier as storage medium. 12.1.5 Updating and extending image archives It is not necessary to create a complete image for each data backup. The im‐ age can be created incrementally. While creating an incremental image, only the sectors of the partition or the hard disk - changed since the last complete image creation - are saved. This information is saved as part of the image ar‐ chive to a new file in the directory of the full image archive. The name of the new file is the file name of the full image archive with a consecutive number (see following note). Incremental image creation is only reasonable on hard

Backup and recovery software

disk or network drives, as - when using a removable medium - the full backup is no longer provided when writing the incremental file. Updating and extending an image archive only differs from creating a full backup by the above described backup type selection. Set "Incremental" or "Differential" instead of "Full". Select the checkbox Name backup tiles using the archive name, as in Acro‐ nis True Image Echo, rather than auto-generated names to compose the file name of the first (full) backup in the archive from the archive name, e.g. "My‐ Documents.tib". The file names of the following (incremental or differential) backups contain an additional number, e.g. "MyDocuments2.tib", "MyDocu‐ ments3.tib", etc. With this simple naming scheme, it is possible to create a "transportable" image from a machine on a removable medium or to move backups to another memory location using scripts. If the checkbox Name backup tiles using the archive name, as in Acronis True Image Echo, rather than auto-generated names is not selected, each backup is provided with a unique file name including an exact date stamp as well as with the backup type, e.g. "MyDocu‐ ments_2010_03_26_17_01_38_960D.tib". With these default file names, a wider use of backup target locations and schemes is possible. If simplified file names are used, the following functionality is not available: ● Configuration of full, incremental and differential backups within a single backup plan. Separate backup plans have to be created for every back‐ up type ● Backups in managed vaults, on tape, in an Acronis Secure Zone or the Acronis Online Backup Storage ● Configuring storage rules ● Setting up regular conversion of backups to virtual machines ● Using numbers at the end of an archive name 12.1.6 Restoring image archives Recovering from images can be required due to multiple reasons: The most frequent causes are hard disk defects, a virus, recovery after a program test or a defect of the operating system, e.g. by working with the registration edi‐ tor Regedit.exe. Start the recovery of partitions or files from an image archive in the main program window via the Recover function. To recover Windows system partitions, boot the PC from the rescue medium.

We recommend to recover only image archives from the rescue medium. The Windows system partitions have to be recovered from the rescue medium, as the Acronis Recovery Manager, which does not run on IndraControl V devices, is started when the recovery function is used in Windows! Recovering a hard disk or partition using the rescue medium To recover a hard disk or a partition using the rescue medium, proceed as follows: Restart the PC and boot it from the rescue medium. A Windows PE system with Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 starts. Select the Recover function.

NOTICE Data loss due to incorrect selection of the tar‐ get section Select the target section carefully to ensure that the correct hard disk section is overwritten.

NT signature for MBR recovery: The NT signature is a special data set stored in the MBR. The NT signature is used to clearly identify a drive for the operating system. When a drive is recovered with a system volume, specify how to handle the NT signature of the target drive. Enter one of the following parameters: ● Automatic selection: The software maintains the NT signature of the tar‐ get drive if it is the same NT signature as in the backup (i.e. if you recov‐ er the drive to the same drive that was previously backed up). Other‐ wise, the software generates a new NT signature for the target drive. This specified selection is recommended for most of the most cases. Use the following settings only if really required ● Create new: Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 generates a new NT-signa‐ ture for the target drive ● Recover from backup: Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 replaces the NT- signature of the target drive with that from the drive backup Ensure that no drive in this machine has the same NT signature. Other‐ wise, the operating system starts from the first drive, detects the same signature on the second drive and automatically generates a new unique NT signature and assigns it to the second drive. As a result, all volumes of the second drive loose their drive letters, directory paths be‐ come invalid and the programs can no longer find their files. Therefore, the operating system on this drive can no longer boot. Recovering the disk signature can be reasonable due to the following: – Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 controls task planning using the signature of the source drive. If the same disk signature is recov‐ ered, existing tasks do not need to be created or edited again – Some installed applications use a disk signature for licensing or for other purposes – This allows to keep all Windows system recovery points on the re‐ covered drive – This recovers VSS snapshots (VSS = Volume Snapshot Service) used by the Windows Vista function "Previous versions" ● Maintain existing ones: The program does not alter the NT-signature of the target drive When to recover Recover: Selection of the recovery starting time. The rescue medium only provides the immediate recovery (now) option. Recovery options Settings: Settings for error handling, validation prior to recovery or file system checks after recovery.

To recover an image for the serial machine production, go to "Ad‐ ditional settings" and enable the option "Change SID after recov‐ ery" (see chapter 12.1.10 "What to consider upon recovery" on page 194).

OK Complete the settings and start the recovery. 12.1.7 Accessing data in image archives Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 allows to search in image archives and to open or copy specific files from the archive. Therefore, mount an image using a drive letter. For the function to mount an image file, go to the main program window un‐ der Actions ▶ Mount image.

Fig. 12-6: Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 – Mount image Source Archive: Selection of the backup archive containing the desired files. Backup: Select the image to be mounted. Mount settings Mount settings: Selection of the drive letters used to mount the backup and the access modes "Read-only" or "Read/Write". Then, the image data can be accessed via the previously assigned drive let‐ ters.

To mount an incremental backup, all previously created incre‐ mental backups and the full backup used as basis have to be available. Even if only one part of the backup is missing, mount‐ ing is not possible. To mount a differential backup, the full backup used as basis has to be available.

If an image archive consists of several partial archives, they have to be available as a whole to integrate the contained images. Therefore, it is not possible to include images distributed on CDs or DVDs. If this is necessary, copy all partial archives to a com‐ mon directory on the hard disk.

12.1.8 Creating bootable rescue medium If hard disks are irreparably damaged or after the installation of a new hard disk, the computer can be started with Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 via a bootable rescue medium on an external storage medium. The bootable res‐ cue medium can be created on the following storage media: ● CD or DVD To create a CD or DVD, an integrated or external USB CD/DVD burner is required.

To create a DVD as bootable medium, use a DVD+R, as prob‐ lems can occur if a DVD-R is used. We recommend to test the function of the created bootable medium in any case.

● USB stick A USB stick with a capacity of min. 512 MB is required for creation.

Creating bootable rescue medium with Acronis Backup & Recov‐ ery 10 requires the installation of a patch on devices with certain INTEL chip sets. Other "Acronis" functions are not affected. Current IndraControl V-devices are affected by this problem. Thus, Rexroth provides a patch to repair the problem. Please check whether this patch is installed. For this purpose, go to the start menu and open "Programs → Acronis" and check whether the entry "Rexroth_ABR10Patch_installed" exists. If this is not the case, download the patch from the Rexroth website using the fol‐ lowing link and install it. www.boschrexroth.com/software-updates/indraworks_downloads/ IndraControlV/Acronis/Rexroth_ABR10_Patch__1_0_0_0.zip. Creating a bootable rescue medium Acronis provides the "Acronis Bootable Media Builder", a special tool to cre‐ ate bootable media. The "Acronis Bootable Media Builder" is located in the menu bar in the main window under Tools ▶ Create bootable media. The required steps are explained in the following: 1. Press Next to continue. 2. Select "Bootable media type". Here, select "Default (Linux-based me‐ dia)" and the desired drive representation.

To create a Windows PE-based rescue medium, download the Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK). For further information, refer to the Acronis documentation. 3. "Enter Linux kernel parameters", no input is required. 4. Select the Acronis components for the rescue medium. 5. Advanced options such as remote login information or network settings. The default settings can be kept and it can be continued. Confirm the displayed window with Yes. 6. Select the rescue medium to be created. Select a USB drive or an ISO file for example to create a CD or DVD later on. 7. Exit the wizard and start the copying.

12.1.9 Network support Windows software No further settings are required for the Windows software. The available Win‐ dows network is accessed. Bootable rescue medium, Startup Recovery Manager Set the network settings in the menu bar under Tools ▶ Configure network. Specify the settings for each network adapter of the IndraControl V device here. The default setting is always "Auto configuration" (DHCP). 12.1.10 What to consider upon recovery When recovering images, note the following if the image has to be recovered after the exchange of a hard disk or the entire PC. This also applies when re‐ producing a master image for the serial machine production. Reasons: ● Enhanced write filter for Windows 7 Embedded Standard IndraControl V-devices with Windows 7 are based on "Windows Embedded Standard 7" and contain the embedded feature "Enhanced write filter". The "enhanced write filter" accesses the partition ID and saves it. Thus, the partition ID is maintained by the image during recov‐ ery. If the hard disk was exchanged, the partition ID in the image no lon‐ ger matches the hardware and has to be created again

This only refers to IndraControl V-devices with Windows 7 Embedded Standard. Devices with Windows XP are not affected!

● Windows SID If an IndraControl V-device runs in a domain or on a WSUS server (Win‐ dows Server Update Services), it is particularly important that there are no duplicate SID (Security Identifiers) in the network.

For Windows XP, use the "NewSID" tool from the internet. This tool does not exist anymore for Windows 7. Therefore, use Acro‐ nis to change the SID.

● Acronis license key Acronis uses hardware-dependent license keys. If an image is transfer‐ red to another hardware, Acronis detects this and the license has to be activated again.

Ensure that there is an Acronis license for every device on which an image with Acronis software is recovered!

Examples of recovery scenarios are described in the following: Image recovery after changing the hard disk In this case, it is important to reset the partition ID. Thus, we recommend to include two "RunOnce" commands into the before creating the image. When the image is recovered on the new hard disk, the change is

Bosch Rexroth AG R911343901_Edition 04 IndraControl V-Devices Operating Systems 195/217

Backup and recovery software

applied automatically. The first command resets the partition ID and the sec‐ ond command triggers a restart to apply the change. Execute both commands in a console window. To open such a window: 1. Press the 2. Enter "Cmd" into the search box 3. "cmd.exe" is displayed in the search result under programs. Select "cmd.exe", right-click to open the context menu and select "Run as ad‐ ministrator". The input prompt is now started with administrator rights.

4. Now, enter the following commands subsequently: ● REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \Runonce /v 0001 /t REG_SZ /d "rundll32 ewfcfg.dll,EwfSysprep‐ Specialize" ● REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \Runonce /v 0002 /t REG_SZ /d "shutdown /r /t 0"

If an image was created without activating these RunOnce com‐ mands, the following error message is displayed when the recov‐ ered image is started: "Enhanced write filter management tool – WMI reported an error while getting an instance of class EwfVolu‐ meConfiguration. The system cannot find the path specified". In this case, execute the command "rundll32 ewfcfg.dll,EwfSysprep‐ Specialize" manually in a console window and restart Windows!

Alternatively, enter both commands into a .cmd file and execute them as before command and after command when creating the image. For this purpose, select the item "Pre/post commands" in the backup options and enter the .cmd file as "Execute before the backup".

Image recovery after changing the PC In this case, the partition ID has to be reset as described above. In addition, the Acronis license has to be reassigned after image recovery, as the license is linked to a hardware. However, if the hardware is faulty, the li‐ cense can be activated again on the new hardware. Proceed as follows: 1. Start the Acronis license server with the application "C:\Program Files (x86)\Acronis\LicenseServer\LicenseServerConsole". 2. Select "Manage licenses on the local machine". 3. Select "Manage available licenses". 4. Select "View usage info". 5. Highlight the displayed license and select "Revoke license". Confirm the prompt with OK. 6. Restart the device. After the restart, the license is again listed in the license manager and linked to this hardware.

Image recovery on serial machines In this case, the partition ID has to be reset and the Acronis license has to be assigned again as described above.

Under Recovery options → Additional settings, select "Change SID after re‐ covery" for the image recovery. 12.2 Acronis Backup Version 11 12.2.1 Introduction This chapter describes how to back up data of the entire system at IndraControl V-devices. Some IndraControl V-devices can be ordered with a software for the data backup. Data backups can be created manually or automatically with the data backup software. We recommend to execute data backups cyclically to be able to restore the original state quickly in case of failure (e.g. defective hard disk). This chapter describes a data backup solution to back up and recover the operating system and the installed user programs (entire system) as a back‐ up of the partition or hard disk, but not as a "selective" backup of user data. However, Acronis Version 11 can also be used to back up individual files and directories.

The following is a brief description based on the version "Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5". For later versions, Acronis changed its product name to "Acronis Backup 11.x". This documentation gen‐ erally names it "Acronis Backup Version 11". For the complete documentation of the Acronis software, go to "C:\Support\Soft‐ ware\Acronis" or go to www.acronis.de/support/documentation/.

The Acronis Backup Software is only provided in English.

After commissioning, we recommend a data backup.

Reason for data backup IT systems are no static systems. Data is continuously created, modified, moved or deleted. Components are added or removed, updates are made and settings are modified. There are many reasons to back up this data and settings: ● Storing data if a hardware fails ● Restoring the system environment after an incorrect operation ● Backing up the basic settings of a system ● Archiving a system state before updating ● Providing an identical system environment Defining hardware and software requirements IndraControl V-device If the device was ordered with backup software, the Acronis Backup software is installed in the "C:\Programme\Acronis" directory or in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Acronis" with 64 bit operating systems. To modify or repair the installa‐ tion, call the setup program in the "C:\Support\Software\Acronis" directory. The license key for a new installation is included in the license documenta‐ tion. Backup media ● Local hard disk

Bosch Rexroth AG R911343901_Edition 04 IndraControl V-Devices Operating Systems 197/217

Backup and recovery software

● PC in the network (backup server) ● Internal or external USB CD/DVD burner ● External USB hard disk 12.2.2 System presentation Acronis Backup Version 11 Acronis Backup Version 11 is a program that provides backup functions for hard disks or partitions. The program creates an exact "image" of the hard disk or of individual partitions. Additionally, the program can be used to re‐ store all contents, including the operating system, all programs as well as personal data and settings. Images can be stored on the hard disk, on writeable CDs, DVDs, USB disks and network resources. Image files can be extended incrementally. Thus, different backup states can be selected while recovering hard disks and partitions. For details, see the Acronis help function or documentation on the Acronis Backup Version 11. Archive files Archive files have the extension "tib". These files contain the images of the partitions or hard disks. In addition, data of the partitions or the hard disk and information used for recovery are included. An archive file can contain im‐ ages of several partitions and hard disks. During the backup, data can be compressed and split into several image ar‐ chive files.

It is not recommended to archive images directly on removable media like CDs or DVDs, as there is no flow control of data. We recommend to split the image archive into the corresponding size during creation and to transmit the files after the backup to the re‐ movable medium and to validate them.

A drive/volume backup saves the "entire" file system of the respective drive/ volume. This includes all information required to boot the operating system. Such backups can be used to restore drives or volumes completely or to just restore individual files and folders. A drive backup stores all volumes of the respective drives (including hidden volumes such as manufacturers' mainte‐ nance volumes) and the track zero with the master boot record (MBR). The following elements are not included in a drive or volume backup (they are also excluded from backups on the file level): ● The swap file (pagefile.sys) and the file containing an image of the main memory when the computer hibernates (hiberfil.sys). Following a restart, these files are recreated at a suitable position with a size of zero ● Windows Shadow Storage. The path to this memory is defined by the registry value VSS Default Provider located in the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Backu‐ pRestore\FilesNotToBackup. This means that operating systems as of Windows Vista do not save Windows points in backups If the "sector by sector" option (Raw mode) is enabled, all sectors of the drive are stored in the drive backup. The sector-by-sector backup can be used to back up drives with undetected or unsupported file systems and other propri‐ etary data formats.

Backup and recovery software

Full backup A full backup stores all data selected for backup. A full backup is the basis of all archives and for incremental and differential backups. One archive may contain several full backups or consist only of full backups. A full backup is independent, this means no access to any other backup is required to restore data from the full backup. A full backup is the slowest upon creation, but the fastest upon recovery. However, due to the Acronis technology, recovery from an incremental back‐ up does not take longer than recovery from a full backup. A full backup is most suitable for the following cases: ● to reset a system to its initial state ● if this initial state changes rarely, regular backups are not required Example: Internet cafes, schools or universities where the administrator re‐ sets any changes made by guests or students, but rarely updates the refer‐ ence backup (only when new software has been installed). In this case, the time of backup is irrelevant while the time required for recovery from the full backup is reduced to a minimum. To increase system stability, the adminis‐ trator may keep several copies of the full backup. Incremental backup An incremental backup saves any changes made to the data since the last backup. Access to the other backups of the same archive is required to re‐ store the data from an incremental backup. An incremental backup is most suitable for the following cases: ● if it has to be possible to reset data for each of the multiple saved states ● if the data changes are small with regards to the total amount of data Incremental backups are less reliable than full backups. If one backup in the "chain" is damaged, all following backups become useless. However, saving several full backups is not an option if several previous versions of the data are needed, as the reliability of an extremely large archive is even more questionable. Differential backup A differential backup saves changes to the data made since the last full back‐ up. To recover data from a differential backup, access to the respective full backup is needed. An differential backup is most suitable for the following ca‐ ses: ● if only the most recent data state is to be saved ● if the data changes are small with regards to the total amount of data Conclusion: Differential backups are slower during creation, but recover fast‐ er, while incremental backups take less time to be created, but recover slow‐ er. Actually, there is no physical difference between an incremental backup based on a full backup and a differential backup based on the same full back‐ up at the same time. The difference described above is based on the creation of a differential backup after (or instead of) the creation of several differential backups.

Incremental or differential backups created after hard drive de‐ fragmentation may be significantly larger than normal, as the de‐ fragmentation changes the memory location of the files on the hard drive and the backups reflect these changes. It is therefore recommended to create a new full backup after hard drive defrag‐ mentation.

Comparing backup types The following table shows the known advantages and disadvantages of all backup types. In reality, these parameters depend on many factors, such as quantity, size and pattern of data changes, type of data, physical device specifications, set backup and recovery options. The optimal backup scheme can only be found in practice.

It is only allowed to backup data while the Windows operating system and the machine control are running after an explicit re‐ lease of the respective control system. Generally, we recommen‐ ded backing up Windows system partitions via the bootable res‐ cue medium while the Windows operating system is not running.

The main program window "Manage local machine" contains different func‐ tions in Windows and on the rescue medium. The rescue medium does not contain all options listed here. Backup now

Fig. 12-8: Acronis Backup Version 11 – Backup now The "Backup now" function is the easiest way to create images. This function is available in Windows and on the rescue medium.

In Windows, the "Create backup plan" function is also provided. It is used to create cyclic backups or incremental or differential backups, for example. For a detailed description of this function, refer to the Acronis documentation.

The settings for "Backup now" are explained in the following: What to back up Items to back up: Select the drives, partitions or files to be backed up.

This selection also displays the Acronis Secure Zone if enabled. The Acronis Secure Zone is not enabled on IndraControl V-devi‐ ces upon delivery. However, it is not advisable to create an image of this section, as it only contains saved images. If the Acronis Secure Zone is not included in the backup, it has to be created again on a new hard disk after the backup recovery.

Exclusions: Data may be excluded from the backup, e.g. hidden files and folders, system files and folders and exceptions specified by the user. Where to back up Selection of the memory location and name of the image archive and enter an optional comment. How to back up Backup type: Selects the backup type (full, incremental or differential back‐ up).

Before the first incremental backup, there has to be a complete image.

Validations: Selection whether the image is to be validated after creation.

We strongly recommend validating the image!

Parameters Run as: Selection of a user account to be used for backup. "Acronis service credentials" is used by default. Other user accounts may also be specified. Backup options: Set the parameters for backup, such as commands to be executed before or after the backup, maximum bandwidth assigned to the backup or the degree of compression for the backup archive. If these settings are not changed, the default values are used. For the details, refer to the Ac‐ ronis documentation. 12.2.4 Checking image archives Image archives back up or archive data. Thus, data integrity is the most im‐ portant property of an image archive. Therefore, check every image archive after its creation. Either specify the settings while the backup is created, or start the validation with the Validate button in the main program window of the Acronis Backup Version 11.

Press OK to apply the task as in the settings made in "Backup plans and tasks". Task parameters Task name: Task name used to manage the validation in Acronis.

If Acronis Version 11 detects an error in the image, repeat the im‐ age creation. If this fails again, use another data carrier as stor‐ age medium. 12.2.5 Restoring image archives Recovering from images can be required due to multiple reasons: The most frequent causes are hard disk defects, a virus, recovery after a program test or a defect of the operating system, e.g. by working with the registration edi‐ tor RegEdit.exe. Start the recovery of partitions or files from an image archive in the main program window via the Recover function. To recover Windows system partitions, boot the PC from the rescue medium.

We recommend to recover only image archives from the rescue medium.

Recovering a hard disk or partition using the rescue medium To recover a hard disk or a partition using the rescue medium, proceed as follows: Restart the PC and boot it from the rescue medium. A Linux system with Ac‐ ronis Backup Version 11 starts. Select the Recover function.

Fig. 12-10: Acronis Backup Version 11 – Recover an image What to recover Select data: Selection whether the image is to be restored to the hardware (physical machine) or to a new virtual machine. Where to recover

Select the target section carefully to ensure that the correct hard disk section is overwritten. If a target hard disk (or a target parti‐ tion) has been selected, the selected target hard disk (or target partition) is overwritten.

Recover to: Selection of the target (drive, partition, folder) to where it is to be restored. NT signature for MBR recovery:

Bosch Rexroth AG R911343901_Edition 04 IndraControl V-Devices Operating Systems 205/217

Backup and recovery software

The NT signature is a special data set stored in the MBR. The NT signature is used to clearly identify a drive for the operating system. When a drive is recovered with a system volume, specify how to handle the NT signature of the target drive. Enter one of the following parameters: ● Automatic selection: The software maintains the NT signature of the tar‐ get drive if it is the same NT signature as in the backup (i.e. if you recov‐ er the drive to the same drive that was previously backed up). Other‐ wise, the software generates a new NT signature for the target drive. This specified selection is recommended for most of the most cases. Use the following settings only if really required ● Create new: Acronis Backup Version 11 generates a new NT signature for the target drive ● Recover from backup: Acronis Backup Version 11 replaces the NT sig‐ nature of the target drive with that from the drive backup. Ensure that no drive in this machine has the same NT signature. Other‐ wise, the operating system starts from the first drive, detects the same signature on the second drive and automatically generates a new unique NT signature and assigns it to the second drive. As a result, all volumes of the second drive loose their drive letters, directory paths be‐ come invalid and the programs can no longer find their files. Therefore, the operating system on this drive can no longer boot. Recovering the disk signature can be reasonable due to the following: – Acronis Backup Version 11 controls task planning using the signa‐ ture of the source drive. If the same disk signature is recovered, existing tasks do not need to be created or edited again – Some installed applications use a disk signature for licensing or for other purposes – This allows to keep all Windows system recovery points on the re‐ covered drive – This recovers VSS snapshots (VSS = Volume Snapshot Service) used by the Windows Vista function "Previous versions" ● Maintain existing ones: The program does not alter the NT-signature of the target drive When to recover Recover: Selection of the recovery starting time. The rescue medium only provides the immediate recovery (now) option. Task Recovery Options: Selection of advanced recovery functions and options

To recover an image for the serial machine production, go to "Ad‐ ditional settings" and enable the option "Change SID after recov‐ ery" (see chapter 12.2.9 "What to consider upon recovery" on page 208). 12.2.6 Accessing data in image archives Acronis Backup Version 11 allows to scan image archives and to open or copy selected files from the archive. Therefore, mount an image using a drive letter. For the function to mount an image file, go to the main program window un‐ der Actions ▶ Mount image.

Fig. 12-11: Acronis Backup Version 11 – Mount image What to mount Archive: Select the backup archive containing the data to be mounted. Backup: Select the image to be mounted. Settings Selection of the drive letters used to mount the backup and the access modes "Read-only" or "Read/Write". Then, the image data can be accessed via the previously assigned drive let‐ ters.

To mount an incremental backup, all previously created incre‐ mental backups and the full backup used as basis have to be available. Even if only one part of the backup is missing, mount‐ ing is not possible. To mount a differential backup, the full backup used as basis has to be available.

If an image archive consists of several partial archives, they have to be available as a whole to integrate the contained images. Therefore, it is not possible to include images distributed on CDs or DVDs. If this is necessary, copy all partial archives to a com‐ mon directory on the hard disk. 12.2.7 Creating bootable rescue medium If hard disks are irreparably damaged or after the installation of a new hard disk, the computer can be started with Acronis Backup Version 11 via a boot‐ able rescue medium on an external storage medium. The bootable rescue medium can be created on the following storage media:

According to the Acronis licensing terms, there has to be an Acro‐ nis license for each PC using the Acronis rescue medium!

● CD or DVD

Bosch Rexroth AG R911343901_Edition 04 IndraControl V-Devices Operating Systems 207/217

Backup and recovery software

To create a CD or DVD, an integrated or an external USB CD/DVD burner is required

To create a DVD as bootable medium, use a DVD+R, as prob‐ lems can occur if a DVD-R is used. We recommend to test the function of the created bootable medium in any case.

● USB stick A standard USB flash drive is required for creation. Please note that we cannot guarantee that the IndraControl V-devices detect all types of USB flash drives due to the great variety of USB flash drives available.

We recommend to test the function of the created bootable medi‐ um in any case.

Creating a bootable rescue medium Acronis provides a special tool to create bootable media under Tools ▶ Cre‐ ate bootable media. In the menu bar of the main window, go to Tools ▶ Cre‐ ate bootable media. The required steps are explained in the following: 1. Press Next to continue. 2. Display the license used. 3. Select "Bootable media type". Here, select "Default (Linux-based me‐ dia)" and the desired drive representation.

To create a Windows PE-based rescue medium, download the Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK). For further information, refer to the Acronis documentation. 4. "Enter Linux kernel parameters", no input is required. 5. Select the Acronis components for the rescue medium. Choose the 64 bits version with UEFI support or the 32 bits version. We recommend to select both versions. The required boot selection can be made while booting with the rescue medium. 6. Advanced options such as remote login information or network settings. The default settings can be kept and it can be continued. Confirm the displayed window with Yes. 7. Select the rescue medium to be created. Select a USB drive or an ISO file for example to create a CD or DVD at a later date. 8. Exit the wizard and start the copying. 12.2.8 Network support Windows software No further settings are required for the Windows software. The available Win‐ dows network is accessed. Bootable rescue medium, Startup Recovery Manager Set the network settings in the menu bar under Tools ▶ Configure. Specify the settings for each network adapter of the IndraControl V device here. The default setting is "Auto configuration" (DHCP).

12.2.9 What to consider upon recovery When recovering images, note the following if the image has to be recovered after the exchange of a hard disk or the entire PC. This also applies when re‐ producing a master image for the serial machine production. Reasons: ● Enhanced write filter for Windows 7 Embedded Standard IndraControl V-devices with Windows 7 are based on "Windows Embedded Standard 7" and contain the embedded feature "Enhanced write filter". The "enhanced write filter" accesses the partition ID and saves it. Thus, the partition ID is maintained by the image during recov‐ ery. If the hard disk was exchanged, the partition ID in the image no lon‐ ger matches the hardware and has to be created again.

This only refers to IndraControl V-devices with Windows 7 Embedded Standard. Devices with Windows XP are not affected!

● Windows SID If an IndraControl V-device runs in a domain or on a WSUS server (Win‐ dows Server Update Services), it is particularly important that there are no duplicate SIDs (Security Identifiers) in the network.

For Windows XP, use the "NewSID" tool from the internet. This tool does not exist anymore for Windows 7 and later. Therefore, use Acronis to change the SID.

● Acronis license key Acronis uses hardware-dependent license keys. If an image is transfer‐ red to another hardware, Acronis detects this and the license has to be activated again.

Ensure that there is an Acronis license for every device on which an image with Acronis software is recovered!

Examples of recovery scenarios are described in the following: Image recovery after changing the hard disk In this case, it is important to reset the partition ID. Thus, we recommend to include two "RunOnce" commands into the Windows registry before the im‐ age is created. When the image is recovered on the new hard disk, the change is then applied automatically. The first command resets the partition ID and the second command triggers a restart to apply the change. Execute both commands in a console window. To open such a window: 1. Press the Windows key. 2. Enter "Cmd" into the search box. 3. "Cmd.exe" is displayed in the search result under programs. Select "cmd.exe", right-click to open the context menu and select "Run as ad‐ ministrator". The input prompt is now started with administrator rights.

4. Now, enter the following commands subsequently:

Backup and recovery software

● REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \Runonce /v 0001 /t REG_SZ /d "rundll32 ewfcfg.dll,EwfSysprep‐ Specialize" ● REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \Runonce /v 0002 /t REG_SZ /d "shutdown /r /t 0"

If an image was created without activating these RunOnce com‐ mands, the following error message is displayed when the recov‐ ered image is started: "Enhanced write filter management tool – WMI reported an error while getting an instance of class EwfVolu‐ meConfiguration. The system cannot find the path specified". In this case, manually execute the command "rundll32 ewfcfg.dll,EwfSysprepSpecialize" in a console window and then restart Windows.

Alternatively, enter both commands into a .cmd file and call them as commands to be executed before and after creating the image. For this purpose, select the item "Pre/post commands" in the backup options and enter the .cmd file as "Execute before the backup".

Image recovery after changing the PC In this case, the partition ID has to be reset as described above. In addition, the Acronis license has to be reassigned after image recovery, as the license is linked to a hardware. However, if the hardware is faulty, the li‐ cense can be activated again on the new hardware. Proceed as follows: 1. Start the Acronis license server with the application "C:\Program Files (x86)\Acronis\LicenseServer\LicenseServerConsole". 2. Select "Manage licenses on the local machine". 3. Select "Manage available licenses". 4. Select "View usage info". 5. Highlight the displayed license and select "Revoke license". Confirm the prompt with OK. 6. Restart the device. After the restart, the license is again listed in the license manager and linked to this hardware.

Image recovery on serial machines In this case, the partition ID has to be reset and the Acronis license has to be assigned again as described above. Under Recovery options -> Additional settings, select "Change SID after re‐ covery" for the image recovery. 12.2.10 Information on compatibility with encryption software Acronis Backup Version 11 remains completely functional if it is used with en‐ cryption software on the file level. Encryption software used on the drive level encrypts data "on the fly". Therefore, the respective data in a backup is not encrypted. Programs for the drive encryption usually modify important system areas, such as boot record, partition tables or file system tables. These fac‐ tors impact backup and recovery actions on the drive level as well as the abil‐ ity of a recovered system to boot or to access the Acronis Secure Zone.

Backup and recovery software

However, under certain conditions Acronis Backup Version 11 is compatible with the following programs for drive encryption: ● Microsoft BitLocker Drive Encryption ● McAfee Endpoint Encryption ● PGP Whole Disk Encryption To ensure reliable recovery on the drive level, comply with the relevant gen‐ eral rules and software-specific recommendations. General installation rule We strongly recommend setting up encryption software prior to the installa‐ tion of Acronis Backup Version 11. If the encryption software is to be installed at a later date, uninstall Acronis first. Complete the setup of the encryption software and reinstall Acronis afterwards. Using the Acronis Secure Zone The Acronis Secure Zone must not be drive-encrypted. Proceed as follows to be able to use the Acronis Secure Zone: 1. Install the encryption software first and Acronis Backup Version 11 next. 2. Create an Acronis Secure Zone. 3. Exclude the Acronis Secure Zone from the encryption of the drive or its volumes. General backup rule Drive can be backed up while the operating system is running.

Do not try to back up using a bootable rescue medium or the Ac‐ ronis Startup Recovery Manager.

For further information on the drive encryption, refer to the Acronis documen‐ tation.
