1.2.1 User & Group Policies
Acronis Access Client Management allows policies to be assigned to Active Directory groups. Group
policies will usually address most or all of your client management requirements. The group policies
list is displayed in order of precedence, with the first group in the list having the highest priority.
When a user contacts the Acronis Access server, their settings are determined by the single highest
priority group policy they are a member of.
User policies are used when you want to enforce specific settings on a user regardless of the groups
he is in, as User policies have a higher priority than Group policies. User policies will override all
Group policies.
