to the management agent installed on the master computer. The management agent will be included 
in the master image and deployed on all target computers. This will enable you to manage files and 
execute applications on target computers at any time after deployment.  
 
However, having excess software in the master image is not always rational. Besides, installation of 
the agent takes a license.  
 
We recommend that you create a master image using bootable Acronis Master Image Creator or the 
command line utility in PE. Nevertheless, having at least one management agent on the network (not 
necessarily on the master computer) makes sense. You will be able to validate (check) your images 
integrity using the management agent.  
 
6. To add the Acronis OS Deploy Server ability to deploy in other subnet (across a switch) to any 
configuration but (1), install Acronis WOL Proxy on any server in the subnet where the target 
computers are. No additional actions are required. 
 
Acronis WOL Proxy has to be installed only if:  
-  you are going to perform scheduled deployment (manual or event-driven deployment do not 
require WOL Proxy Server) 
AND  
-  all or some of the target computers are in subnet(s) other than Acronis OS Deploy Server. 
 
3.4  Installation of Acronis Snap Deploy Management Console 
 
Acronis Snap Deploy Management Console is an administrative tool for remote access to Acronis 
servers and Acronis Snap Deploy Management Agent. Install Acronis Snap Deploy Management 
Console on any networked computer from which you prefer to operate.  
 
To install Acronis Snap Deploy Management Console: 
1.  Run the Acronis Snap Deploy setup program 
2.  Click Install Acronis Snap Deploy Management Console  
3.  Follow the Install Wizard instructions on the screen. 
 
Typical and complete installations install, besides Acronis Snap Deploy Management Console, Media 
Builder for Acronis Image Creator, Media Builder for Acronis Snap Deploy Agent
 and Media 
Builder for Acronis Standalone Utility. We strongly recommend that you install all the features 
that enable creation of bootable CD, DVD or other removable media with bootable Acronis 
components.  
 
Once Acronis Snap Deploy Management Console is installed, you can install the other components 
remotely using the console’s remote installation feature (for more information, see 
). 
 
3.5  Installation of Acronis License Server 
3.5.1  Installation 
 
Acronis License Server is a component that tracks licenses of Acronis products. Install Acronis 
License Server on a computer accessible to Acronis OS Deploy Server. Installing both products on 
the same computer would make sense.  
 
A typical installation installs Acronis License Server and the Acronis License Server Management 
Console. A complete installation installs, besides these two, Acronis License Server Management Tool. 
A custom installation lets you choose components to install.
