Acronis 11.7 Managed Machine Service and Drobo 5c locks up PC

Thread needs solution

We run Acronis 11.7 on hundreds of servers and workstations. Some have Drobo USB storage devices. On 2 servers the old drobo could not hold any more storage so we replaced the with the new Drobo 5c. The 5c lockes up every machine I plug it into if the Acronis Managed Machine Service is running. It I stop Acronis the 5c work fine. Any one else seen a problem like this.

Hello Danny,

I've found a similar support ticket in our internal system - the investigation is still in progress. Turns out, there is no workaround except either disabling services or excluding Drobo from backup. In this situation we can either wait till the reported support ticket is resolved or open a new case with the support team to get direct assistance. 

Thank you, 

This seems to be the fix

 

Navigate to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Acronis\Klib

and create DWORD: DisableATAIDForExternal = 1
