User guide

The user whose credentials you specify must be a member of the Acronis Centralized Admins security

group on the management server. If you are running the command-line utility on a different machine,

the user must also be a member of the Acronis Remote Users security group on the management

server.

The operations on the machine are performed under the account of the agent service running on

that machine (Acronis Agent User account).

Example

To view all disks of a machine through the management server, run the following command:

acrocmd list disks --host=<ams hostname> --credentials=<user name>,<password>

--service=ams --address=<IP address or hostname>

Commands on the management server

There are commands that can be executed by the management server itself.

Example

To view the current activities of the management server, run the following command:

acrocmd list activities --host=<ams hostname> --credentials=<user name>,<password>

--service=ams
