15.5.1.3 Acronis Backup Agent for Windows
The following are the parameters of Acronis Backup Agent that can be set by using Acronis
Administrative Template.
Licensing
Specifies how often the agent checks its license on the license server, and how long it can work
without a license server.
License Check Interval (in days)
Description: Specifies how often, in days, to check for license availability on Acronis License
Server.
Possible values: Any integer number between 0 and 5
Default value: 1
Acronis Backup Agent periodically checks whether its license key is present on the license
server. The first check is performed every time that Acronis Backup Agent starts and
subsequent checks are performed once in the number of days given by
License Check Interval.
When the agent cannot connect to the license server, a warning is recorded into the agent's
log. You can view this warning in the Dashboard.
If the value is 0, no license check will be performed; without a license, Acronis Backup's
functionality will be disabled after the number of days given by
Maximum Time without License Server (see the next parameter).
See also License Server Connection Retry Interval later in this topic.
Maximum Time without License Server (in days)
Description: Specifies how long, in days, Acronis Backup will work as normal until its
functionality is disabled.
Possible values: Any integer number between 0 and 60
Default value: 30
If Acronis License Server is unavailable, Acronis Backup will continue working with full
functionality for the number of days specified in Maximum Time without License Server, as
counted from the moment of installation or from the last successful check.
License Server Connection Retry Interval (in hours)
Description: Specifies the interval, in hours, between connection attempts when Acronis
License Server is unavailable.
Possible values: Any integer number between 0 and 24
Default value: 1
