ABR10 "Acronis Managed Machine Service" - Service Account

Thread needs solution

Is there a way to do remote agent installations that don't configure the "Acronis Managed Machine Service" as a domain account? 

TI I thought used the Network Service account.  We are required to change all domain account passwords every 90 for compliance reasons.  Having to change service logon passwords for every machine would be a bit of a road block.

 

Thanks,

Gary

Hello Gary,

Thank you for choosing Acronis Backup & Recovery 10.

Could you please be more specific in your question? What exactly do you mean under " installations that don't configure the "Acronis Managed Machine Service" as a domain account? "

We are looking forward to hearing back from you at your earliest convenience.

Thank you.

The remote agent installation installs the "Acronis Managed Machine Service" with a logon using a domain account.  I would rather it used a builtin account so the password wouldn't have to be managed for service logins across 300 servers.

Hello Gary,

Thank you very much for the clarification! Unfortunately, such scheme is not possible with current version of our software. I will forward this situation to responsible person, probably we will include it to one of next releases.

Thank you for understanding.
