Moving management console

Thread needs solution

What is the most efficient way to move the management console from one PC to another, and point all of the clients towards the new console?

Hi Alvin,

The most reliable way would be to back up entire machine where Acronis Management Server is running (the central primary component installed in Acronis Backup 12) and then restore this backup to another machine. Note that the hostname and IP addresses on the new machine must match the original one, so you'll need to make sure to update the DHCP settings, so that the new machine (which has new MACs) still got the original IP.

Thank you.

Hi Vasily,

Thank you for your response. I am sorry to hear that it's not more straightforward than this. It should be as easy as opening the client software on each machine and point it at the new management server. 

Regards,

Alvin
