4.3.1.4 Upon event execution parameters
You can set up the following parameters for the Upon event operation execution:
 Event
 User logon – the operation will be executed each time the current user logs on to the OS.
 User logoff – the operation will be executed each time the current user logs off the OS.
 System startup – the operation will be executed at every OS startup.
Additionally, you can set a time delay to start backup after the system startup. For
example, to start backup 20 minutes after system startup, type 20 in the appropriate box.
 System shutdown or restart – the operation will be executed at every computer shutdown
or reboot.
 Additional condition
 If you want to run an operation only at the first occurrence of the event on the current day,
select the Once a day only check box.
Description of the Advanced settings see in Scheduling (p. 42).
4.3.2 Backup schemes
Backup schemes along with the scheduler help you to set up your backup strategy. The schemes
allow you to optimize backup storage space usage, improve data storage reliability, and
automatically delete the obsolete backup versions.
Backup scheme defines the following parameters:
 Backup methods that will be used to create backup versions (full, differential or incremental)
 Sequence of the backup versions created using different methods
 Version cleanup rules
Acronis True Image 2016 allows you to choose from the following backup schemes:
