Thread needs solution

Using Snap Deploy 3292, and I haven't figured out how to get the WOL feature functioning. It is installed as per instructions.

Hello Heath,

Thank you for using Acronis Products

Acronis Wake on LAN Proxy enables the Acronis OS Deploy Server to wake the target computers

located in the other subnet.

Acronis WOL Proxy has to be installed only if:

- you are going to perform scheduled deployment (manual or event-driven deployment do not

require WOL Proxy)

AND

- all or some of the target computers are in subnet(s) other than Acronis OS Deploy Server.

Install Acronis WOL Proxy on any server in the same subnet as the target computers. No additional

actions are required.

To install Acronis WOL Proxy Server:

1. Run the Acronis Snap Deploy setup program

2. Click Acronis WakeOnLAN Proxy

3. Follow the Install Wizard instructions on the screen.

Acronis WOL Proxy runs as a service immediately after installation. Later on it will automatically launch

at each system restart. You can stop and start this program in the same way as other services.

Please note that your NIC should have Wake on Lan feature support.

Can we send out the "Magic Packet" to the target PC and then start a Manual Deployment ?

Dear Ravi!

Thank you for your question!

I regret to inform you that unfortunately WOL feature is available for the scheduled deployment only. I would advise you to see more details in the respective User's Guide.

I would like to thank you for your question - it is a very nice suggestion, so I will forward it to our Product Management team so that they could review this opportunity and find the best solution to implement this feature.

Meanwhile I would appreciate if you could kindly let me know whether you have any further questions or concerns. Just post a comment here - and we will definitely help you.

Thank you!

Hi,

I'm currently testing the Acronis Snap Deploy 3.0.

In regard to WOL Proxy Server:
1. What is the name of the WOL proxy server service, so I can check if it is active in the services list?
2. Are there any configuration options available, to further configure the WOL proxy server service?

Thanks,
