Task Settings - Advanced Info

Cache files

Determines names of files when they are stored in the MOVEit Automation cache directory for processing. Options:

• Use random names
• Use original names - If one or more of the task sources use Include Subdirectories, files are stored with relative folder path names.
  Note: This selection is useful when creating zip files of an arbitrary collection of files.

Use default state cache settings

Task uses the system's default State Cache settings.

Keep this task's state information cached

Available if Use default state cache settings is not selected

Select length of time.

Automatically re-run task if source download limits are encountered

The task is re-run, which allows MOVEit Automation to pick up the remaining source files without waiting for the next scheduled run of the task.

If this option is enabled, and Collect Only New Files and Delete/Rename After Successful Download are not enabled, the task could loop indefinitely.

Source download limits are set on the Host Override settings on the source.

Note: Source download limits can also be set at the host level (and not overridden at the source level). For more information, see File count download limit and File size download limit in the Additional Properties of specific host types.

Use global setting for task log retention

If this option is enabled (default), the task uses the global settings to define the number of task logs to retain.
