Acronis 12 Virtual Appliance Webserver

Thread needs solution

The Acronis for Vmware 9 had an embedded Webserver,  just deploy the Appliance, configure IP and connect via Browser. Where ist the webserver in Version 12, i cannot connect to the virtual Appliance?

Helllo Steffen,

In version 12, it is now possible to deploy multiple appliances on your hosts.

This means that the appliances have to be managed externally. This is done through our Acronis Management Server (which is also the webserver).  The management server is installed inside Windows or Linux machines (physical or virtual).

Thank you.

I don´t know if this is better or worse. So I will always need a Windows or Linux Server for the management Software and cannot use the slim and easy to install appliance from Acronis Vmware Version 9. I will downgrade the Licence to v9, this is the easiest way.

The new design looks also really aweful to me (annoying like the Home Version, no professional look anymore). Well done Acronis.

Hello Mike,

The appliance does the actual backup, restoration and other data manipulation activties, runs the schedules etc.

So the purpose of deploying appliances is to distribute the load and/or provide endpoints working with data (for example, if you have a host that communicated through a WAN or other network limitaitons)
