3.3 Installing Acronis components on a remote PC

Acronis Snap Deploy Management Console allows you to install Acronis

components onto remote computers located in a corporate network. For

example, Acronis Snap Deploy Management Agent installed on a remote

computer allows you to access to it from Acronis Snap Deploy Management

Console for master image creation, managing files and executing applications.

To install any Acronis component to a remote machine, you will need

administrator rights on it.

To install Acronis components:

1. Select Install Acronis components in the Acronis Snap Deploy

Management Console main window.

2. Select the installer location from the list (Registered Components,

Search removable media or Specify location).

3. Select the Acronis component you want to install.

4. Specify License Server for license validation. It can be found

automatically in the local network or can be specified manually.

5. Specify the network name or IP address of the machine on which the

Acronis component is to be installed. You can also select a PC from the

list of available ones using the Browse… button. At that point, you

will have to provide an administrator user name and password.

6. The Acronis component will be installed to the remote PC you

specified.

7. If you checked the Allow to reboot remote computer

automatically box during Acronis components installation, the

remote machine will reboot. Otherwise, you will see the corresponding

message.
