Installation guide

Specifies whether a machine with any of these components will participate in the Acronis

Customer Experience Program (CEP).

With this parameter, information about the hardware configuration, about the most and least

used features, and about any problems will be automatically collected from the machine and

sent to Acronis on a regular basis. The kind of information to be sent depends on which of the

above components will be installed on the machine. The terms of participation can be found on

the Customer Experience Program Web page.

Without this parameter, the information will not be sent.

The following parameters apply only to the installation package AcronisAgentCore.msi.

/account <User name> <Password>

Specifies the user name and password of the user account under which Acronis Managed

Machine Service will run on the machine. All agents on the machine will run as this service. The

user account must have appropriate privileges as described in "Specifying credentials for Acronis

services" (p. 23). Separate the name of the domain and the account by a backslash, as in:

mydomain\User.

Without this parameter, the service will run under the default account: Acronis Agent User

/remote_users <User1>;<User2>;…;<UserN>

Specifies the user names that will be added to the Acronis Remote Users group. Members of this

Without this parameter, all members of the Administrators group on the particular machine will

be added to the group.
