3.4.2.3 Upgrading an activEcho server with a mobilEcho Client

Management Server on another server

Scenario 3 - Upgrading an activEcho server with a mobilEcho Client Management Server on another

server

Warning! For this scenario, we recommend that you keep your activEcho and mobilEcho servers separate and

upgrade each one individually. For instructions on upgrading your activEcho server, follow the Upgrading a

single activEcho server without a mobilEcho Client Management Server (p. 105) guide and for instructions on

upgrading your mobilEcho server, follow the Upgrading a single mobilEcho server with Client Management

enabled (p. 82) guide.

In this scenario, you have two (or more) Windows Servers with one running just the activEcho Server

and another running the mobilEcho File Server and Management Server. This procedure will upgrade

your activEcho server and mobilEcho Client Management Server to the unified Acronis Access Server

web console. The new console also replaces the mobilEcho Administrator Windows program

previously used to administer mobilEcho servers. The Acronis Access Server web console allows you

to administer both activEcho and mobilEcho from one unified web interface.

To perform an upgrade to Acronis Access Server:

1. Backup all of the necessary files following these guides: mobilEcho 4.5 Backup and/or activEcho

2.7 backup.

2. Write down the current IP Address of your server running mobilEcho and give the computer a

different IP address (You will need the new one as well).

3. Go to the server running activEcho and add the IP address of your server running mobilEcho to a

separate network adapter.

4. You should first upgrade to Acronis Access 6.0 and then upgrade to Acronis Access 7.X. To

download Acronis Access 6.0, use this link:

5. Disable any anti-virus software you have or it may interrupt the installation procedure resulting

in a failed installation.

6. Download the Acronis Access Server installer to your activEcho server and run the installer.
