License policy
Acronis Snap Deploy licensing is based on number of deployed and/or
managed computers (servers or workstations). The number of deployments
onto the same computer, as well as the number of Acronis Snap Deploy
Management Console, Acronis OS Deploy Server*, Acronis PXE Server or
Acronis License Server installations is not counted.
* When installing Acronis OS Deploy Server, you have to specify the Acronis License
Server. However, no extra license will be engaged. Acronis OS Deploy Server checks
the availability of free licenses and stores the specified Acronis License Server
parameters to be able to access the Acronis License Server later, when deployment is
launched.
For example, to deploy software on 100 computers you need 100 deployment
licenses. No additional licenses are required to manage the deployed
computers or re-deploy any of them. If you want to manage a computer that
was not previously deployed with Acronis Snap Deploy, you will need a new
license to install the Acronis Snap Deploy Management Agent to that
computer.
Acronis Universal Deploy is an option to Acronis Snap Deploy and has its own
serial number and license agreement.

Acronis Snap Deploy components installation
You can install all the Acronis Snap Deploy components (Acronis Snap Deploy
Management Console, Acronis OS Deploy Server, Acronis PXE Server, Acronis
Snap Deploy Management Agent and Acronis License Server) on one PC or
each component on a separate networked computer.
It is recommended that you install Acronis Snap Deploy Management Console
first. You then will be able to install most of other components remotely to
any networked computer.
Before installing Acronis OS Deploy Server, you need to install the Acronis
License Server and import license numbers to it (see
Chapter 4 Using Acronis
License Server
.)
The installation procedure may differ from the one described below,
depending on the component.
To install an Acronis Snap Deploy component:
1.
