Acronis Backup & Recovery

Installation in the unattended mode

To install a component in the unattended mode (without asking for confirmations), run the component’s installation file with the -a command-line parameter. You may need to use other parameters to specify how to perform the installation.

The following are two examples of unattended installation.

Example 1: Unattended installation with a license key. This example applies to stand-alone editions of the product and to advanced editions when using a trial license key.

The following command installs Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Agent for Linux in the unattended mode (without asking for confirmations) and uses the license key 12345-67890-ABCDE:

  ./AcronisAgentLinux.i686 -a -i BackupAndRecoveryAgent -l 12345-67890-ABCDE  

Note: In stand-alone editions of the product, the file name is AcronisBackupRecoveryServerLinux.i686 instead of AcronisAgentLinux.i686.

Example 2: Unattended installation with a license server. This example applies to advanced editions of the product when using a full license key.

The following command:

• Installs Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Agent for Linux in the unattended mode.
• Uses Acronis License Server located on the machine licensesrv, and a license key for the Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Advanced Server edition.
• Registers the machine on Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Management Server located on the machine managementsrv once the installation is complete.

  ./AcronisAgentLinux.i686 -a -i BackupAndRecoveryAgent -L licensesrv -P AS -C managementsrv -g srvadmin -w PassWd123
