MOVEit Automation can replicate the contents of two folders to ensure the files and folder structures remain in sync. Any two folders on the MOVEit Automation local hard drive, other Windows servers/shares, FTP servers, FTPS servers, SFTP servers and/or MOVEit Transfer servers may be involved in a single synchronization task.
Folder sync operations are configured in special "synchronization tasks". Instead of the sources and destinations found in a traditional task, a synchronization task consists of "Folder A", "Folder B" and a "sync direction" arrow.
More information about this can be found in the " Synchronization" section of this documentation. Much of the information in this "Configuring Tasks" section assumes you are working with traditional tasks.
