Acronis Cyber Protect 15: impossible to assign license to virtual hosts in cluster

Symptoms

  1. You are using Hyper-V or ESXi clusters with Virtual Appliance, and licenses for Virtual Host workload (any edition),

  2. It is not possible to assign licenses to all nodes of the cluster: when assigning the license to the host, the virtual machine loses the license and backup fails due to lack of license. If the license is assigned to a virtual machine instead, the host loses the license and cannot run backups.
