2.5 Installing the agent using Group Policy
You can centrally install, or deploy, Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Agent for Windows onto machines
that are members of an Active Directory domain, by using Group Policy, a mechanism available in
Microsoft Windows 2000 Server and later Windows server operating systems.
2.5.1 Preparing the agent's deployment
In this and the following sections, you will find out how to set up a Group Policy object to deploy
Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Agent for Windows onto machines in an entire domain or in its
organizational unit.
Every time a machine logs on to the domain, the resulting Group Policy object will ensure that the
agent is installed and operational on the machine.
Prerequisites
Before proceeding with agent deployment, make sure that:
You have an Active Directory domain with a domain controller running Microsoft Windows
Server 2003 or later.
You are a member of the Domain Admins group in the domain.
You know the license key or the name or IP address of a machine where Acronis License Server is
installed.
You have a machine running Windows, with Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Management Console
installed on it.
