In Windows XP and Server 2003: %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application
Data\Acronis\BackupAndRecovery\MMS\events.db3.

In Windows Vista and later versions of
Windows: %PROGRAMDATA%\Acronis\BackupAndRecovery\MMS\events.db3.

In Linux: /var/lib/Acronis/BackupAndRecovery/MMS/events.db3.
The preset is: Maximum log size: 50 MB. On cleanup, keep 95% of the maximum log size.
When the option is enabled, the program compares the actual log size with the maximum size after
every 100 log entries. Once the maximum log size is exceeded, the program deletes the oldest log
entries. You can select the amount of log entries to retain. The default 95% setting will keep most of
the log. With the minimum 1% setting, the log will be nearly cleared.
This parameter can also be set by using Acronis Administrative Template (p. 396).
14.6.7 Machine management
This option defines whether the machine has to be managed centrally by the Acronis Backup
Management Server.
To be able to use this option, you must be logged on as a member of the Administrators group on
the machine.
You have the opportunity to register the machine on the management server when installing an
Acronis Backup agent. If the machine is not registered, selecting Centralized management here will
initiate the registration (p. 440). Or, you can add the machine to the management server on the
server side. Any of the three registration methods require the server administrator privileges.
Selecting Stand-alone management on a registered machine will result in the machine stopping
communication with the server. On the management server, the machine appears as Withdrawn.
The management server administrator can delete the machine from the server or register the
machine once again.
The preset is: Stand-alone management.
To set up centralized management on the machine:
1. Select Centralized management.
2. Specify the Management Server IP/Name.
3. Specify the user name and password of the management server administrator on prompt.
4. In the Machine's registration address, select how the machine will be registered on the
management server: by its name (recommended) or by its IP address.
5. Click OK and the machine will be registered on the management server.
To disable centralized management, select Stand-alone management.
14.6.8 Cloud backup proxy
This option is effective only for backup to and recovery from Acronis Cloud Storage over the Internet.
This option defines whether the Acronis agent will connect to the Internet through a proxy server.
Note The proxy server must be configured to redirect both HTTP/HTTPS and TCP traffic.
