2.3.3 Acronis Backup Server installation and setup
The Acronis Backup Server only can be installed locally on a computer by running the
setup program.
Before starting installation of this component, please read section
to get understanding of this component functionality and define the storage policy
advantageous to your network.
We suggest that you start using Acronis Backup Server as follows:
1.
Set up a server with a system drive and a high capacity storage drive.
2.
Install Acronis Backup Server on the system drive. Reboot on prompt.
In Windows XP SP2 or Windows 2003 Server, the option Control panel -> Windows
Firewall -> Exceptions -> File and Printer Sharing must be enabled. Otherwise
remote users will not be able to back up on the backup server.
3.
Connect the console to Acronis Backup Server.
When connecting to a backup server inside a domain, mind whether your domain or
local account is saved on the backup server. If you used your local account to install the
backup server, and then logged in Windows on the console computer using your domain
account, enter the local user name along with the backup server name (for example,
Server1\username). Otherwise the name will be identified as a domain one.
