Description

To convert an Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 backup (TIB) to Citrix XenServer (XVA), the product first converts the backup to Microsoft Virtual PC format, and only then to Citrix XenServer format:

Thus, since Microsoft Virtual PC format has limitations, the same limitations apply to the conversion of TIB to XVA:

  • Volumes bigger than 127 GB in size cannot be converted;
  • SCSI interface cannot be added. You can only use IDE interface.
