2.3.3.3 Installation with or without license keys

When installing agents, you need to provide license keys or choose installation without license keys.

Installing without license keys

Select Install in trial mode or for cloud backup only.

The agents will be installed in the trial mode (p. 4).

Cloud backup will be available after you activate subscriptions to the cloud backup service on the

machines. Cloud backup will be available until the subscription period expires.

Please do not try to import the subscription keys to Acronis License Server or type them in the installation wizard

windows.

Specifying license keys

Select one of the following:

 Specify license keys manually. You will be able to type the license keys or import them from a

text file.

When you add machines to the management server, this option is not available.

 Use licenses from the following license server. Specify the name or IP address of the license

server or the management server and provide access credentials for the server.

When you add machines to the management server, the software automatically selects the

license server used by the management server. You cannot change it.

After you click Next, the software automatically assigns the available licenses to the components.

Viewing and changing the assignment of licenses

The Licensing window shows how many licenses are required and the number of deficient licenses.

To add one or more licenses, click Add license. You will be able to type the license keys or import

them from a text file.

window, you can set up which component will use which license, as follows:

1. Click a machine in the Machines list.

2. Under Components, examine which components on the machine require licenses.

3. Under Used Licenses, assign or reassign the licenses for these components by selecting or

clearing the corresponding check boxes.
