  • [ABR-143804] Sometimes, recovering a virtual machine via acrocmd fails. The following error appears: "invalid usage of RestorePartitionChanges."
  • [ABR-142159] The systeminfo utility crashes on a physical server.
  • [ABR-141723] Sometimes, Acronis Managed Machine Service crashes in Microsoft Windows Server 2012.

  • [ABR-138090] Clicking the Browse button when extracting installation files hangs the setup program.
  • [ABR-136113] Recovering from a backup of a virtual machine with SAS disks creates a virtual machine with IDE disks.
  • [ABR-127009] Creating a managed vault without encryption and deduplication fails. The following errors appear: "Failed to add vault", "The vaults are not initialized yet. Please try again later after the storage node is completely initialized."
  • [ABR-124721] If the disk runs out of space when the metadata of archives stored in a managed vault is being updated after a backup, the entire archive is deleted.
  • [ABR-123778] Acronis Backup Management Server shows an incorrect operating system version for a managed machine running Microsoft Windows Server 2016.
  • [ABR-117878] Virtual machines from the same vCenter are not displayed in the Management Console if one of these virtual machines has an empty ID.

  • [ABR-88455] In case of unstable network connection between Agent for VMware and the vCenter it manages, changes made in the vCenter (renaming a virtual machine, moving a machine to another host, etc.) are not reflected on the management server. As a result, operations with the affected virtual machines, like virtual machine binding, work incorrectly.
  • [ABR-65978, ABR-69047, ABR-119118] Under WinPE-based bootable media, Acronis Managed Machine Service crashes if a recovery is performed after a backup during the same session.
