Getting Started

First: Install the Software

Your first task is to install MOVEit Central on a supported platform. See the MOVEit Central Service Installation page for more information.

If you just want to take a tour of MOVEit Central, take the defaults for all installation options. You will, however, be required to enter a MOVEit Central license code (e.g. "C-ABCDE-FGHJK-MNQPR") and various passwords or point to a license file.

The MOVEit Central setup program also installs MOVEit Central Admin on the server. However, if you decide later to administer MOVEit Central remotely, you can also use the standalone MOVEit Central Admin installation program to set up the client on each of your remote desktops.

After both MOVEit Central has been installed, run MOVEit Central Admin and connect to "localhost" (no username/password is required). If you cannot connect, refer to the Troubleshooting guide.
