2.1.5 Acronis Universal Restore installation

Acronis Universal Restore is an option to Acronis True Image Enterprise Server. It is

purchased separately and installed from a separate setup file. Acronis Universal Restore has

its own serial number which is required at installation.

Acronis Universal Restore can only be installed on a computer where at least one of the

following Acronis components is installed:

Acronis True Image Agent for Windows

Acronis True Image Enterprise Server (local version)

Bootable Media Builder.

Acronis Universal Restore can be installed on a networked computer either locally, by

running the setup program, or remotely using one of remote installation services, for

example, Systems Management Server (a component of Microsoft Windows NT BackOffice

program package). Remote installation of Acronis Universal Restore with Acronis True Image

Management Console is not supported.

After installation, Acronis Universal Restore automatically plugs in one or more of above

program components. Acronis True Image Enterprise Server (local version) name, displayed

in its main window, changes to Acronis True Image Enterprise Server with Universal

Restore.

2.2 Extracting Acronis True Image Enterprise Server components

During Acronis True Image Management Console installation, all Acronis True Image

Enterprise Server components’ setup (.msi) files will be placed to C:\Program Files\Common

Files\Acronis\RemoteInstall folder. Thus, you will be able to remotely install, modify or repair

the components using Acronis True Image Management Console or msiexec.exe utility.

When installing Acronis True Image Enterprise Server components on a local computer, you

can save setup files for each Acronis True Image Enterprise Server component separately on

a local or network drive. This will help when modifying or recovering the existing component

installation on a local computer.

To save a component’s setup file:

• run the Acronis True Image Enterprise Server setup file;

• in the Install Menu, right-click on the component name and select Extract;

• select a location for the setup file and click Save.
