Select the Console tab. The virtual appliance welcome screen tells you what to do next. Click
Close. You will be able to access this screen at any time by clicking the help button in the virtual
appliance GUI.
You are taken to the Acronis Backup Agent for VMware screen where you continue the agent
configuration.
2. Time zone
Under Virtual machine, in Time zone, click Change and select the time zone for the location
where the management console is installed.
An ESX(i) server always works in the GMT time zone. When being imported, a virtual appliance
inherits the GMT time zone from the server. If the console works in another time zone, you need
to synchronize the virtual appliance with the console to ensure that the tasks scheduled with the
console run at the appropriate time.
3. vCenter/ESX(i)
Under Agent options, in vCenter/ESX(i), click Change and specify the vCenter Server name or IP
address. The agent will be able to back up and recover any virtual machine managed by the
vCenter Server.
If you do not use a vCenter Server, specify name or IP address of the ESX(i) host whose virtual
machines you want to back up and recover. Normally, backups run faster when the agent backs
up virtual machines hosted on its own host.
Specify the credentials that the agent will use to connect to the vCenter Server or ESX(i). We
recommend that the account have the necessary privileges for backup and recovery on the
vCenter Server or ESX(i). You can click Check connection to ensure the access credentials are
correct.
The virtual appliance is ready to work. In addition, you can change the following settings:
Network settings
The agent's network connection is configured automatically by using Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP). To change the default configuration, under Agent options, in eth0, click Change
and specify the desired network settings.
Local storages
You can attach an additional disk to the virtual appliance so the Agent for VMware can back up to
this locally attached storage. Such backup is normally faster than a backup via LAN and it does
not consume the network bandwidth.
The virtual disk size must be at least 10 GB. Add the disk by editing the settings of the virtual
machine and click Refresh. The Create storage link becomes available. Click this link, select the
disk and specify a label for it.
Be careful when adding an already existing disk. Once the storage is created, all data previously contained
on this disk will be lost.
2.4.1.4 Step 4: Adding the virtual appliance to the management server
The minimum set of components that enables backing up virtual machines from a host includes the
management console, the license server and the agent. With this set, you can back up and recover
virtual machines using the direct console-agent connection.
However, Acronis highly recommends that you install and use Acronis Backup Management Server,
even if you have only one ESX(i) host. The management server lets you easily deploy and update
agents, set up and monitor backups of your virtual machines. If, for better performance, you
configure several agents to manage the same host, the management server will automatically
