Page 16

Note: Depending on the IT policy settings, the Access Mobile Client application user may be limited to only
connect to specific preassigned servers.

To add a server:

1. Tap the Add Server "+" button.
2. Select the Server Name or IP Address field and enter the Server address. You can enter the

server DNS name or IP address.

3. Set the optional Display Name if you would like the server to appear in the server list with a

name other than its Server Name or IP Address.

4. Enter the Username used to connect to the server.
5. If you would like to save your password so you don't have to enter it every time you connect,

turn Save Password to ON.



If you enable the Save Password option, a password window will appear. You will need to
enter and confirm your password before it is saved.

6. When done configuring the new server, tap the Save button.

Connecting to a Server

You can connect to any server displayed in your Servers list. When you tap the server you want to
connect to, you will be prompted for your username and/or password, if required.

Once connected, the shared volumes on the server will be displayed in the Browse pane. You can
now navigate the shared volume.

There is no need to manually disconnect from servers. Your connection will shut down when you
leave the Acronis Access application. If your management policy settings allow you to save your
password, servers will continue to be accessible when you later return to Acronis Access.

Editing Your Servers

If your ability to add and edit servers has not been disabled in your Acronis Access management
policy, an Edit button will be available in the top bar of the Home pane. Only servers you have
personally added to the Access Mobile Client app can be edited. Management assigned servers
cannot be edited.

To modify server settings:

1. Tap the Edit button. A

sign will appear in front of the servers that can be edited.
