Chapter 16. Command-line mode and
scripting

Acronis True Image for Microsoft Small Business Server (local version) supports the
command-line mode and enables backup automation by executing XML scripts.
The command-line mode functionality is somewhat limited as compared to the GUI mode.
You will not be able to perform operations that require the reboot of the system, such as
restore a system partition or clone a system drive. These operations only can be done
through the GUI.
Scripting is intended only for backup.

for Microsoft Small Business Server supports this mode with TrueImageCmd.exe utility.
The file is located in a folder where Acronis True Image for Microsoft Small Business
Server has been installed, by default it is
C:\Program Files\Acronis\TrueImageEchoEnterpriseServer.
