Using Acronis BackUp to backup non-Windows environments
Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has any good resources on installing the Acronis Backup Agent in Ubuntu or if anyone has any resources on using Acronis Backup with VxRail. I'm trying to figure this out on my own, but also asking for help. Thanks!

Hi Maria,
I did find that Linux documentation you are referring to, and I was able to install a copy of the Beta Linux Backup Agent on an Ubuntu machine, but I cannot seem to get it to register with the Management Server.
I was able to find RegisterAgent in my var/bin/Acronis/ folder but the documentation doesn't quite explain how to get RegisterAgent to reach out and register the node with my Management Server. I get the error that "RegisterAgent is not a command" when I try to run RegisterAgent with any arguments or parameters at all.
This seems like the last hump to get over. Any help with RegisterAgent would be appreciated. Let me know if there's any more information I can share that might crack this case. I can also provide screenshots. I'll try to get a few to you later.
Thanks,
-Matt F.

Hello Matt,
thanks for the clarification.
Here is the correct syntax that you need to issue to manually register an agent on the management server:
./usr/lib/Acronis/RegisterAgentTool/RegisterAgent -o register -a <management server address>
Please read the following KB article for more details.
If this still does not help, please open a case with Acronis Support Team in order to investigate the issue.
