The following requirements must be met before installing upgrade to Acronis Cyber Infrastructure 3.0:
The following type of alert is being observed in WebCP > Monitoring > Alerts:
Network interface “<iface_name>” on node “<hostname>” is missing important features (or has them disabled): “<feature_name>”.

1. Backup storage was created with Acronis Cyber Infrastructure (ACI) and registered in Acronis Management Server (AMS) with some DNS name specified during configuration, e.g.:
2. Registered Acronis Cyber Infrastructure backup storage is listed in AMS > Settings > Storage Node tab:
ACI node was deployed in Azure VM per documentation "Backup Gateway Quick Start Guide for Microsoft Azure" with version less then 3.5. azure-cli package in version less than 2.0.77-1 is installed.
Attempt to perform cluster update or check updates via WebCP fails without specific error, manual attempt to update azure-cli package separately fails due to dependency issue.
After Acronis Cyber Infrastructure update to version 4.0, disk blink option became not available - greyed out, although this funcion was working well before update, e.g.:
After initiation of storage disk "Release" operation one of the following situations occurred causing disk release interruption:
1. CS located on the releasing disk failed, checked and recovered;
2. The node where releasing disk located was entered into Maintenance mode and exited from Maintenance afterwards.
WebCP and Grafana monitoring dashboards do not reflect performance information on any of the monitoring charts e.g:
The following situation is being observed:
1. ABGW with NFS backend is deployed, node connects to NFS share IP via interface which does not have any ACI networks assigned;
2. After update from ACI 4.5 to 4.6 vstorage-abgw service started to fail with "failed to mount" error in /var/log/vstorage/abgw.log.zst
log:
1. On multi-node Acronis Cyber Infrastructure cluster after downloading updates via WebCP > Settings > Updates > Download there is no Install button:
2. Manual check of update status via CLI shows that one of the nodes has status uptodate while another ones are in download_completed status:
One of the following scenarios is being observed:
The following behavior is observed in Acronis Cyber Infrastructure (ACI) cluster:
1. Alerts "Node is offline" suddenly appear for all nodes in a cluster for a short period of time. During this time, status of the Storage is displayed as 'Unavailable' per WebCP dashboard.
Backup Gateway on Microsoft Azure to store backups in the Azure cloud is being deployed per Acronis Cyber Infrastructure Backup Gateway Quick Start Guide for Microsoft Azure.
This troubleshooting guide is applicable in cases when deployment failed on the InitializeStorage step:
1. Backup storage was registered initially with ACI version 4.5 and below;
2. Attempt to update ABGW certificate via WebCP > Storage Services > Backup Storage > Settings > Certificate or via CLI in ACI 4.6/4.7/5.0 fails with error like the following:
This article is intended for Acronis Cyber Infrastructure (ACI) / Acronis Storage (AS) administrators.
You get this error message on attempt to check cluster updates or start updates via WebCP -> Settings -> Updates:

2. With ACI version 4.5 and higher:
1. Backup storage was registered initially with ACI version 4.5 and below;
2. Attempt to update ABGW certificate via WebCP > Storage Services > Backup Storage > Settings > Certificate or via CLI in ACI 4.6/4.7.0 fails with error like the following:
