The MOVEit Automation installation program installs these components:

  • MOVEit Automation service

    MOVEit Automation is normally installed as a service. This is the program that maintains the configuration files and runs configured tasks.

  • MOVEit Automation Config Utility

    Most MOVEit Automation settings, such as hostnames, directories, schedules, and logging, are managed by MOVEit Automation Admin. However, a few settings are managed by a separate program, MOVEit Automation Config. These are ordinarily set one time at installation; there is rarely a need to change them.

The MOVEit Automation service maintains the configuration file and runs configured tasks

To configure and control the transfer and manipulation of tasks, you can use either of the following programs. Each one is installed separately. For more information, see the Installation Guide for the target version on docs.progress.com.

  • MOVEit Automation Admin Console, installed separately.
  • MOVEit Automation Web Admin, a web-based program. It has a subset of the functions that are available in MOVEit Automation Admin. For more information, see the Install MOVEit Automation Web Admin section of the Installation Guide on docs.progress.com.
