1.3.6. Management Console
Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Management Console is an administrative tool for remote or local
access to Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 agents, and in the product editions that include the
centralized management capability, to the Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Management Server.
The console has two distributions for installation on Windows and installation on Linux. While both
distributions enable connection to any Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 agent and Acronis Backup &
Recovery 10 Management Server, we recommend that you use the console for Windows if you have a
choice between the two. The console that installs on Linux has limited functionality:
• remote installation of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 components is not available
• the Active Directory-related features, such as browsing the AD, are not available.
1.3.7. Acronis Wake-On-LAN Proxy
Acronis Wake-On-LAN Proxy enables Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Management Server to wake up
for backup machines located in another subnet. Acronis Wake-On-LAN Proxy installs on any server in
the subnet where the machines to be backed up are located.
