![]() ![]() I had to Restart the “Acronis Group Server” service. When i turn on a client which was Off (or unreachable) it still says Unreachable, even re-connecting to the Group Server doesn’t refresh this. It’s just a Group-Task Scheduler, Group-Server is a bit overrated!ĥ) You can update an Agent on a Remote Machine but you can’t see what version it already has.Ħ) When i’m logged in to the Group Server i can see all the Agents, but there is no way to ‘refresh” this window. Now the Group Server is out of the game! It doesn’t interact with the Tasks (so it doesn’t wait with a next backup while other backups are running). The only extra option you have is to shift the backup start time by X minutes. Connect to a Remote Agent click “Show Tasks” there.Ĥ) They call it “Group Server”, but it does nothing else than scheduling a Group Task (actually scheduling a task on all the selected machines!). ![]() If Network Drives do not appear, and if the device name has not changed, use the 'Default Network Path' in the table above for the WD device on your network. Click the arrow pointing down and click Add existing backup. Click BACKUP Column and create a Backup Name.

Maybe this is the reason why the software is so expensive ? $995 per server license!ģ) The GUI works slow and is very unnatural When i want to schedule a Task on several machines, i need to start the Remote Management Console, connect to the “Group Server”, switch to “Group Task Management” and schedule a task. It would be better if they used the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) instead of their own “Management Console”. Do i need to tell you we’ve almost reached 2009! ?Ģ) The several roles “Agents”, “Remote Management Console”, “Enterprise Server”, “Backup Server”, “Group Server” and “License Server” make it quite complex while it shouldn’t be that complex. I experienced a lot of problems and weird things ġ) Even while we’ve waited for v9.5 there is still no X64 version, so I just installed the x86 on all the Windows Servers. My goal was to backup several Windows 2003 servers and some Linux CentOS 5.2 servers. In my search for an easy, stable and manageable backup tool, I tested Acronis True Image Server 9.5 (Enterprise Edition).
