Edit a plan/task
Click Edit.
Backup plan editing is performed in the same way as creation (p. 33), except for
the following limitations:
It is not always possible to use all scheme options, when editing a backup plan if
the created archive is not empty (i.e. contains backups).
1. It is not possible to change the scheme to Grandfather-Father-Son or Tower
of Hanoi.
2. If the Tower of Hanoi scheme is used, it is not possible to change the number
of levels.
In all other cases the scheme can be changed, and should continue to operate as
if existing archives were created by a new scheme. For empty archives all changes
are possible.
Clone a backup plan
Click Clone.
The clone of the original backup plan will be created with default name "Clone of
<original_plan_name>". The cloned plan will be disabled immediately after
cloning, so that it does not run concurrently with the original plan. You can edit
the cloned plan settings before enabling it.
Enable a plan
Click Enable.
The previously disabled backup plan will run again as scheduled.
Disable a plan
Click Disable.
The backup plan will not run as scheduled. However, it can be started manually.
After a manual run, the plan will stay disabled. The plan will run as usual if you
enable it again.
Export a plan
Click Export.
Specify the path and name of the resulting file. See Export and import of backup
plans (p. 220) for more information.
Import a plan
Click Import.
Specify the path and name of the file that contains a previously exported plan.
See Export and import of backup plans (p. 220) for more information.
Delete a plan/task
Click Delete.

At least one task needs
user interaction.
Otherwise, see 2.
Identify the tasks that need interaction (the program will
display what action is needed) -> Stop the tasks or enable
the tasks to run (change media; provide additional space on
the vault; ignore the read error; create the missing Acronis
Secure Zone).
