Backup to second location

Thread needs solution

Hi all,

I want to backup my vms to a second location within the task.
When I want to add a second location, I can only choose for Acronis Cloud Backup Storage.

Only one task created, I can choose for another option... So I was able to add my NAS in one job?

Can someone explain why this is?

We are using build 10007 of the software.

Regards,
Bart

Well, I think it is license related, I hope you can help me out...

We have licenses for six sockets and currently using 4.
When creating a job with multiple servers, we get a warning about license usage...

See the attached screenshots...

Anyone about the cause?

Regards,
Bart

Hi Bart,

When you create a backup of a VM which resides in vSphere cluster then the licenses are required for each host in this cluster. For example if our esx1401 host has 2 CPU sockets and esx1402 has 2 CPU sockets then you need 4 licenses in total.

Can you please clarify how many sockets are installed inside each of these hosts? You can check it from the vSphere client - see attached screen shot.

Thank you.
