Backup failure due to License issue with Vmware Cluster

Thread needs solution

hi all,

with every new build of acronis, things become more and more complicated, especially with licensing.

i can add a license to an esxi host. the license server says erverything is fine. but the log says "no"

with this problem, i'm not able to run any backupjobs.

here is the log entry:

here is the solution: http://kb.acronis.com/content/16577

"If you are using clustered VMware ESX servers, you need 1 license for Acronis Backup & Recovery Virtual Edition per each ESX host in cluster."

no matter if you are planning on only backing up one host.
