Question:

Is Acronis Files Connect (formerly ExtremeZ-IP) Compatible with VMWare ESX Server?

 

Answer:

Yes. Acronis Files Connect runs and is supported on a virtualized Windows Server image being hosted on VMWare ESX Server or ESXi.

As a fully user mode application, Acronis Files Connect utilizes all of the standard Windows operating system file system functionality to provide AFP file sharing connectivity to Mac clients. Group Logic utilizes VMWare extensively in its own QA and support environments for replicating different customer configurations.

An individual license to Acronis Files Connect is required for each instance of Windows that is running Acronis Files Connect in the VMWare environment.
