1.5 License policy
Acronis Snap Deploy licensing is based on the number of deployed and/or managed computers
(servers or workstations.) For example, to deploy a system on 100 computers you need 100
deployment licenses. No additional licenses are required to manage the deployed computers or re-
deploy any of them.
1.5.1 Server and workstation licenses
Acronis Snap Deploy has two types of licenses. A license for the server product is needed to deploy a
server operating system or install the management agent on a server operating system. A license for
the workstation product is needed to deploy a workstation operating system or install the management
agent on a workstation operating system.
A workstation license is needed to deploy a disk or partition that does not contain an operating
system, if the target computer has not been assigned a license before.
Linux is considered as a server OS. The explicit list of server and workstation operating systems is in
the previous section.
If Acronis Snap Deploy fails to identify the type of operating system, the operating system is
considered as a workstation OS.
A server license could be used instead of a workstation license automatically or through a prompt.
1.5.2 Licenses for Acronis Universal Deploy
Acronis Universal Deploy is an add-on to Acronis Snap Deploy and has its own serial numbers and
license agreement.
The Acronis Universal Deploy licenses are counted, used and upgraded in the same way as the Acronis
Snap Deploy licenses. Acronis Universal Deploy also has two types of licenses for server and
workstation operating systems. You need one Universal Deploy license per target computer.
You do not need a license to install Acronis Universal Deploy. However, do not forget to add the
Acronis Universal Deploy licenses to the license server before starting deployment. If the licenses are
not found during deployment, the Acronis Universal Deploy step will be skipped.
1.5.3 Acronis Snap Deploy trial version
The Acronis Snap Deploy trial version has all the functionality of the standard version. To upgrade
from the trial version to the standard product you do not need to re-download the software. Simply
buy the licenses and import them to the license server.
1.6 Upgrade to v 3
To upgrade from Acronis Snap Deploy version 2.0 or 1.0 to version 3, upgrade both the licenses and
the program components.
