5. Depending on the operation you want to perform, refer to the corresponding section of the
Acronis Backup Advanced for vCloud User's Guide (p. 40).
1.5.4 Disabling backup for an organization
To disable backup for an organization
1. Log in to the service.
2. Click the Organizations tab.
3. Select the organization to disable backup for.
4. Click Configure.
5. Clear the Enable backup for an organization check box.
6. Confirm the changes.
As a result:
The organization users will no longer be able to use the backup service.
The organization's backup plans will be revoked from virtual machines, but will be preserved by
Agent for vCloud. If you re-enable backup, it will be enough to reapply the backup plans to the
machines so that the machines become protected again.
The existing backups will be kept. If the backups are no longer needed, you can manually delete
them from backup storages.
1.6 Configuring the backup service
To access these settings, click the Settings tab.
System backup plans
This setting is used for managing system backup plans (p. 32).
E-mail server settings
These settings are necessary for sending e-mail notifications to organization users. Unless the e-mail
server parameters are filled in, no notifications will be sent.
The subject can include ordinary text and variables. In the received e-mail messages, each variable
will be replaced by its value at the time of backup plan execution.
The default notification subject is:
[Backup service]: %Organization name% - %Backup plan name%
Where:
%Organization name% is the name of the organization.
%Backup plan name% is the name of the backup plan.
Other variables are not supported.
Tip E-mail notifications to a system administrator are configured on the management server. Go to Options >
Management server options, and then specify the e-mail server settings in E-mail settings. In Alert
notifications, you can select the specific alerts to send notifications about.
