License Key: An evaluation or production 16-digit license key is required (for example C-ABCDE-ABCDE-ABCDE). Older installations may use a 15-digit license key (for example, 12345-12345-12345). MOVEit Central still supports these as well. You may enter a specific key or point to a license file.
Remote Administration of MOVEit Central: The MOVEit Central setup program also installs MOVEit Central Admin on the server. To administer MOVEit Central remotely, use the standalone MOVEit Central Admin installation program to set up the client on each of your remote desktops. In addition to the operating systems shown above, you can also install MOVEit Central Admin on Windows 7 Professional/Enterprise.
Server Certificate: If you plan to use MOVEit Central Admin remotely, a server certificate is recommended though not required. The MOVEit Central installation package will automatically install a self-signed certificate to use for this purpose. If you would like to use your own SSL certificate instead, you must install it (usually though the Microsoft "Certificates" Management Console), select it with the MOVEit Central Configuration utility and restart the MOVEit Central service.
The latest production recommendations can be found in the online Support Knowledge Base.
Optional: Supported Antivirus Engine
When Symantec AntiVirus, McAfee VirusScan, or Trend Micro OfficeScan detect a virus, MOVEit Central will take action to delete or ignore the infected files and will log the appropriate message. Installing one of these antivirus packages is not required, but it is recommended if you would like MOVEit Central to use its free, integrated antivirus facility.
