Backup VM running on a different server as Acronis.

Thread needs solution

Hello

I dont know if it is possible, that's why I ask here:

Example:
There are physical server: "A" and "B"

Both hosts VMs in Hyper-V.

Currently we backup VMs on "A" with Acronis installed on "A". Is it possible to backup VMs on "B" with Acronis running on A?
So I would like to make the backup of All VMs on A and B server, but I would like to run Acronis only on A.

Regards

Hello Konrad,

Thank you for posting your question in our forum.

It does not matter, if installed on Host A or Host B. It depends on the number of licenses. Each Host, you want to backup its virtual machines needs one license. You will find more information about Acronis licensing here.

If there is anything else, we can do for you, please let me know.

Thank you.

Hello I know licenses, I need technical info about how to backup VMs from other servers.

You can backup VMs only if agent can make a snapshot of volume where they reside. So it's either a local storage standalne HV server, or a node of a cluster with a CSV.
