Standalone Deployment - ACRONIS SNAP DEPLOY 3 - FOR WORKSTATION Manual

Standalone deployment is deployment on a computer isolated from a network or included in a network
without Acronis Snap Deploy infrastructure, to be exact, without Acronis OS Deploy Server. Standalone
deployment is performed locally using the bootable Acronis Standalone Utility.
The Acronis Universal Deploy option is not available in the standalone mode.
Steps:
1. Install Acronis Snap Deploy Management Console.
2. Create bootable media with Acronis Master Image Creator and Acronis Standalone Utility.
Acronis Standalone Utility can be placed on a physical media only. This component is not
designed to boot from a PXE server.

3. Configure and image the master system. Save the image on a network share, detachable or
removable media, because internal hard disks of the target computer cannot be accessed during
the standalone deployment.
4. Boot the target computer into Acronis Standalone Utility.
5. Attach or insert the media if the master image or files to transfer are located on the media.
Acronis Standalone Utility can deploy images located:
- in network shared folders
- on USB and FireWire (IEEE-1394) storage devices (hard drives, flash drives) attached to the
managed computer
- on DVD+R/RW, DVD-R/RW, CD-R/RW loaded in the managed computer media drive.
The image created on removable media has to fit into one media disk. To deploy an image
spread over several CDs, DVDs or other media, copy all parts of the image to the same folder
on an external drive or a network share.
