management agent installed on the master machine. The management agent will be included in the
master image and deployed on all target machines.
However, having excess software in the master image is not always rational.
We recommend that you create a master image by using the bootable component called Acronis
Snap Deploy 4 Master Image Creator. Nevertheless, having at least one management agent on the
network (not necessarily on the master machine) makes sense. You will be able to validate (check)
the integrity of your images (p. 79) by using the management agent.
