Certs Restore imports client certificates from input PFX files created by Certs Backup into the Windows Certificate Store used by MOVEit Automation.

To use Certs Restore, configure a task with a source that downloads the two files created by Certs Backup. Then configure a per-file process to run this script to restore the certificates in those two files.

An example of a complete task and a recommendation on its use can be found in the Central Service - Backup - Automated Configuration Replication documentation.

Input Parameters

  • Certs_Password (Required) - The password that the built-in Certs Backup script used to encrypt the PFX files.

Notes

When MOVEit Automation is running as a foreground application, this script will generally not work properly because a different user's Windows Certificate Store will generally be used in foreground mode than when MOVEit Automation is running as a service.
