Acronis acronis snap deploy 3 マニュアル

 

 

This section does not describe steps of the installation procedure. It contains general information 

necessary for understanding Acronis License Server and covers more operations with licenses than 

described in 

3.5.2  Adding licenses using Acronis License Server Management Console

 and 

3.5.3  

Adding licenses in command line mode

.  

 

 

The Acronis License Server is a mechanism that tracks licenses of Acronis products. Acronis Snap 

Deploy licensing is based on the number of deployed and/or managed computers (servers or 
workstations). For example, to deploy a system on 100 computers you need 100 deployment licenses. 

No additional licenses are required to manage the deployed computers or re-deploy any of them.  

 

Acronis Universal Deploy is an add-on to Acronis Snap Deploy and has its own serial number and 

license agreement. 
 

Acronis License Server tracks the licenses using a MAC address, which is unique for each network 

interface card (NIC). Although a MAC address is usually hardwired to the NIC, some operating systems 

offer a way to change it. It is important to note that attempting to change the MAC address on a 

system may impede the Acronis License Server operation and prevent you from other deployments to 

the same computer or from managing that computer remotely. 
 

When installing Acronis OS Deploy Server, you have to specify the Acronis License Server. Once the 

Acronis License Server is found the program checks for available licenses on the server and stores its 

net address to be able to access the Acronis License Server later, when deployment is launched. 

 

When starting a deployment, Acronis OS Deploy Server checks the availability of free licenses on the 
Acronis License Server. If there are enough free licenses for the deployment, the process will run and 

the number of free licenses will decrease by the number of deployed systems. 

Acronis License Server can import multiple license numbers from .txt or .eml files, saving you from the 

time-consuming procedure of typing in each number. 

 
When upgraded, recovered or reinstalled, the Acronis License Server keeps all the imported licenses 

intact. However, it is recommended that you copy the file(s) with license numbers to removable 

media, or create a hard copy of that file(s) and keep it in a safe place. This ensures that you have 

license data available in case of hardware failure. 

 

 

1.  Run the Acronis Snap Deploy Management Console. 

2.  Click Manage licenses. Connect to the computer where Acronis License Server is installed. This 

will display all serial numbers available on the Acronis License Server. One serial number can 

contain multiple licenses.
