Using Acronis Snap Deploy 4..Please Assist

Thread needs solution

Hello

I am new to Acronis. In the past we have been using Acronis True Image for creating and deploying images. We recently had a need where we need to Image an old dell server and deploy the image created to a newer dell server(Hardware change). We were told by Acronis that Acronis SD4 with universal deployment can address this issue. We have received one license for SD4 with universal deployment. We need to test it before we can purchase additional licenses. So far we are able to create "Stand Alone image" and deploy them using "Stand alone deployment" (same hardware server).

We need to test now for a different upgraded hardware. Can someone please describe the process, I know it involves a PXE server and some other steps. Please indicate the steps that are required to image a server and deploy the same image to a newer different hardware server. Any tips would be nice..thanks

Hello Ams Ams,

in our web help you can find a detailed illustrated guide on how to use Acronis Universal Deploy. In short, while creating a deployment template you need to make sure that you have drivers for your new hardware and specify that you want to use Universal Deploy.

Thank you.
