Remote system backup question

Hi Friends,
I have installed "Acronis True Image Enterpise Server9.1" and all its components on System A. I need to back up System B.I just need to know,that do I need to install any agents on System B to back it up or can i directly connect to it. Because when I try to connect to system B from System A it fails.
Please help.
Thanks

 

Hi,
you have to install the agent. if you cannot connet to the remote system, check the username and password.

 

Thanks Brings,
Atleast you replied. But which do i need to install that backup server on that remote machine??
I have gone through the whole "Acrnosi True Image 9.1 enterprise server" guide and nowhere it explains this that what components you need to install on the remote computer that you are trying to back up.

Can somebody please provide me any links that explains this...I really need some help.
Thanks

 

Hello mickscool,

Thank you for choosing Acronis Remote Server Backup Software.

Please accept our apologies for the delay with the response.

Please note that the local version of Acronis True Image 9.1 Enterprise Server allows you to perform local backup/restore operation on the server where it installed. If you would like to perform remote operations with Acronis True Image 9.1 Enterprise Server you should install Acronis True Image Management Console on the main server and Acronis True Image Agent on the remote computer. Acronis True Image Agent can be installed locally using the installation file of Acronis True Image 9.1 Enterprise Server or remotely via Acronis True Image Management Console. Acronis True Image Management Console also allows updating or removing Acronis True Image Enterprise Server components on remote computers.
