ESXi 5.5 with Update 3a - Virtual Appliance deploy failed

Thread needs solution

Hi,

today i want to install Acronis for our esxi server. esxi is on latest patchlevel. After Adding Server, i got the following error:

SOAP 1.1 fault: "":ServerFaultCode[no subcode] "Current license or ESXi version prohibits execution of the requested operation."

ESXI Server has a normal 5.5 free licence.

Hi Oliver,

The Free (so-called "Hypervisor") license of vSphere is not supported for agent-less backup: see http://www.acronis.com/en-us/support/documentation/AcronisBackup_12/#37871.html . The reason is that VMware in this license disables all required APIs (RCLI) which are required for agent-less backup. You can back up VMs running on this host via installing Agents for Windows/Linux inside the guest OSes of the VMs only.

Thank you.
