Thread needs solution

Dear,

C:\ProgramData\Acronis\BackupAndRecovery\MMS\Catalog

i checked it is database catalog for Acronis Advanced Server 11.5/11.7. but i already upgraded to 12.5.

May i know we still need keep this file? or i can delete it?

Hi WL,

You are right, the data found in ProgramData\Acronis\BackupAndRecovery\MMS\Catalog is the old catalog that belongs to an unmanaged vault of 11.7.  In Acronis Backup 12.5 we've switched to the separate Acronis Catalog service that stores the indexed data in the Elastic Search database. The new path is C:\ProgramData\Acronis\ElasticSearch\Data

Here https://kb.acronis.com/content/60434 you can also read how to point the ElasticSearch db to another folder. 

Thank you, 

Dear,

But i can't found the path "C:\ProgramData\Acronis\ElasticSearch\Data" into my server.

May i know what happen?

Make sure, Acronis Catalog Browser Service is installed, see Installing a storage node and a catalog service. I'd also recommend reading the how-to chapter Data catalog and Cataloging best practices

 

Dear,

i checked the Acronis Catalog Browser Service is not installed. so i still use the MMS\Catalog? but i already upgrade to 12.5 at long time.
if i still use MMS\Catalog, the big file is not delete. Right?

Thanks

MMS\Catalog cannot be used by Acronis Backup 12.5, so you may safely delete this folder.  In order to start using the cataloging feature you'll need to install the Catalog service first. 

Dear,

in my server, if the MMS\Catalog is not use. and the catalog service is not installed.
so how to catalog the backup into my server now? have other service with catalog function?

If the Catalog service is not installed, the data catalog won't be available. The Catalog section appears under the Backups tab only if at least one catalog service is registered on the management server. Please refer to my earlier comment https://forum.acronis.com/comment/449525#comment-449525
