AB&R 11 Adv'd Workstation: Failed to install Storage Node. Rolls back, then installation shuts down.

Thread needs solution

I've tried a few times to install Acronis Backup and Recovery Advanced Workstation V11. The SQL Server installs, but when it gets to the Storage Node, it just fails. The error code (sorry, thought I had a screenshot, but no) isn't listed anywhere that I could find on the Acronis website. The Message Line is blank. Then it rolls back and the entire installation just exits. All I ever get is SQL Server 2005 Express installed. And the Agent, I think. I see it in the Event logs, but it's not listed in SQL nor in Windows. The only product listed in the Start Menu is the SQL Server Configuration.

I did keep the install log. However, before I realized I'd need the system configuration file, I'd uninstalled and then installed SQL Server 2008. Figured I'd rather use that platform and just attach the Acronis products. It's how my other computer is set up, and that works just fine. So I ran the Acronis Report program anyway, and that's the current system config/setup. Nothing except SQL Server 2008 (not even updates (that I know of)) have been installed since first attempting to install the Acronis product.

If anyone can help figure out how to get the Storage Node installed, I'd sure appreciate it.

1) Download the latest build, 17440 instead of 17318, the problem may be fixed there.
2) Specify service user manually (the one with necessary right - see http://kb.acronis.com/content/32750 ) instead of letting the system generate a new one.
3) - MHZ2320BH is a 5400 rpm disk (MK7575GSX too), are you sure that you need management server and storage node on exactly this machine?
