Change license from Stand-alone to remote

Thread needs solution

Good day.

We bought and use a stand-alone license from one our server (files and directories). Now we would like remove this license and setup remote for manage from management server. I removed all components Acronis Backup and Recovery and setup Windows agent from Management server. I take license from license server (=management server). But when I try to remote connect to this server I have error "server used Stand-alone license". And I checked server license - this server does not use license from server license. Could you please help me, how I can remove stand-alone license and use remote?

Best regards,
Alex.

If it's build 37975 or above, you can install management console on the machine with agent, connect locally and select in menu help->change license, and specify to use license from license server.

When I try to install management console on the machine with agent, it says there is wrong language. agent UK English, console US English. Can I install UK English console? Will it work than?

You need to install console in the same language as agent. Or just copy all files from Program files\Acronis\BackupAndRecoveryConsole to the same folder on the machine with agent - it will work in this scenario (connect and change license. Something other like remote installation may fail), and the product language is checked only during installation.
