When installing an agent, you can enter the license key instead of specifying the license server.
As soon as the machine is registered on the management server, the key will be added to the list
of licenses handled by the server.
The management server web page for components installation
A web server component is installed together with the management server. Use the
management server web page to download and install Acronis components.
Virtual Edition
Off-load backup with Agent for VMware vSphere ESX(i) (Windows)
A Windows version of Agent for ESX(i) enables you to off-load backups from a ESX(i) host.
Support for Hyper-V clusters
Back up and recover clustered virtual machines, including those located on Windows 2008 R2
Cluster Shared Volumes.
Simultaneous backups of virtual machines
An agent can simultaneously back up as many as 10 virtual machines. The exact number is
defined by the user.
Backup to a locally attached storage
Add a dedicated virtual disk to Agent for ESX(i) (Virtual Appliance) and do backups directly to this
storage, omitting LAN.
Flexible configuration of the agents to handle one or multiple ESX(i) servers
Protect your virtual environment with as many agents as you want, from one agent for all hosts
to one agent for each machine. The management server evenly distributes virtual machines
among the agents; or, you can bind the agents with the machines manually.
Automatic agent deployment
Just include ESX(i) virtual machines in a backup plan. The agents will be deployed and configured
in the background, if you allowed this when configuring integration with the vCenter Server.
Incremental conversion to a virtual machine (p. 94)
Conversion of an incremental backup updates the standby machine instead of creating it from
scratch.
1.2 Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 components
This section contains a full list of Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 components with a brief description
of their functionality.
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 includes the following main types of components.
Components for a managed machine (agents)
These are applications that perform data backup, recovery and other operations on the machines
managed with Acronis Backup & Recovery 11. Agents require a license to perform operations on
each managed machine. Agents have multiple features, or add-ons, that enable additional
functionality and so might require additional licenses.
Components for centralized management
These components, delivered with the advanced editions, provide centralized management
capability. Usage of these components is not licensed.
