a machine). Based on the operating system you are deploying, a workstation license or a server
license will be used.
If no appropriate license is available on the license server, the software can either stop deployment
to the machine, or use an alternative license.
Tip: To force a machine license to be used for a particular machine, you can specify the Licensing setting as an
individual setting (p. 130) for that machine.
When you deploy a workstation operating system (p. 15) and you selected the Use a server license
automatically option, the software will use a server license if no workstation license can be used.
The Licensing setting also applies to the Acronis Universal Deploy licenses independently from the
main licenses. For example, if a workstation license for performing deployment is found, but a
workstation license for applying Acronis Universal Deploy is not, Acronis Snap Deploy 4 may use a
server license for Acronis Universal Deploy, but still use a workstation license for performing
deployment.
Example
Suppose that you are deploying a workstation operating system. Consider the following settings:
During deployment: Use deployment licenses
If there are no deployment licenses: Use a machine license automatically
If the license server is out of workstation licenses: Use a server license automatically
With these settings, the software will use a license based on the following priority:
a)
Deployment workstation license
b)
Machine workstation license
c)
Deployment server license
d)
Machine server license
If you change the second setting from Use a machine license automatically to Stop deployment, the
software will use only deployment licenses. The software will use the following priority:
a)
Deployment workstation license
b)
Deployment server license
