Can't backup iSCSI attached to file server

Thread needs solution

I think I asked this in the wrong forums so here it is. I am running a trial of 11.5 advanced.

I have a HP Storageworks 4500 iSCSI SAN that is attached to a Win 2008R2 server. When I try backing up with 11 Advanced it gives me an error "There are no licenses for backing up some fof the selected data types. Such data can be backed up to online storage only." And the job fails. I am trying to backup to an external USB attached directly to the Acronis management server.

Johnny,

I think you need the Server version of ABR11.5 to access a SAN and to run properly on Server 2008. I'm not sure but I think you might need storage node installed as well.

Acronis pre sales support will be able to help you better in this regard.

For some reason it didn't install the license when I pushed the agent to the server. I can now see the volumes without the error so hopefully all is well...
