
4K native (4Kn) disks have 4-KB logical sector size. Modern operating systems can store data on
these disks, but generally cannot boot from these disks. These disks are commonly external
drives with USB connection.
By running the appropriate command
To find out the logical sector size of a disk, do the following.
1. Determine the device name of the disk, such as /dev/sdb.
2. Run the following command as the root user, specifying the device name:
parted /dev/sdb print
3. Examine the first value in the Sector size (logical/physical) line. For example, the output may be
the following:
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B
3.8 Support for UEFI-based machines
Acronis Backup can back up and recover machines that use Unified Extensible Firmware Interface
(UEFI) in the same way as it does for machines that use BIOS for booting.
This applies to both physical and virtual machines, no matter if the virtual machines are backed up at
a hypervisor level or from inside a guest OS.
Limitations

Acronis Startup Recovery Manager (ASRM) (p. 198) is not supported on UEFI machines running
Linux.

A machine running Linux cannot be transferred between UEFI and BIOS.
3.9 Support for SNMP
SNMP objects
Acronis Backup provides the following Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) objects to
SNMP management applications:

Type of event
Object identifier (OID): 1.3.6.1.4.1.24769.100.200.1.0
Syntax: OctetString
The value may be "Information", "Warning", 'Error" and "Unknown". "Unknown" is sent only in
the test message.

Text description of the event
Object identifier (OID): 1.3.6.1.4.1.24769.100.200.2.0
Syntax: OctetString
The value contains the text description of the event (it looks identical to messages published by
Acronis Backup in its log).
Example of varbind values:
1.3.6.1.4.1.24769.100.200.1.0:Information
1.3.6.1.4.1.24769.100.200.2.0:I0064000B
