File notifications are enabled on a host-by-host basis.
To enable file notifications for all tasks accessing a given MOVEit Transfer host, use MOVEit Automation Admin to edit that host and check the "Use Notifications" checkbox.
Note: The MOVEit Transfer server must be running MOVEit DMZ 3.1 or later. If it is not, MOVEit Automation determines this during operation, and disables notifications for that host. If you later upgrade that MOVEit Transfer server, you will have to stop and start MOVEit Automation for it to notice the new capability on that server.
To enable file notifications for a Windows directory or remote share, you must edit a Windows File System and Shares host. To enable file notifications for all tasks accessing a remote mapped drive (share), edit that share and choose "Use Notifications". To enable file notifications for local drives, edit the "(Local)" FileSystem entry and choose "Use Notifications".
Note: On remote filesystems, file notifications work only for remote servers running Windows operating systems. Remote servers running Windows 9x or a non-Microsoft operating system will usually not provide file notifications even though they might still be able to share files.
