Whether connections from MOVEit Automation Admin or API should be encrypted. Normally, you should enable encryption, for best security. However, you can disable encryption if, for instance, you have not obtained a certificate. Note: encryption is always disabled when MOVEit Automation Admin or API is connecting from the same computer (localhost).
Encryption certificate. This is used only for encrypted links from MOVEit Automation Admin or MOVEit Automation API. The installation program will by default install a "test" (self-signed) certificate for this purpose. If you have an existing SSL certificate on the MOVEit Automation system, you may select it here. Providing a secure connection for MOVEit Automation Admin is not necessary, but it is recommended if MOVEit Automation Admin sessions will be accessing the MOVEit Automation server from outside your private network. You can use the MOVEit Automation SSL Certificate Manager to create a certificate suitable for use here.
Cache dir. This is the directory that will be used to store files while they are being processed by a task; files will automatically be deleted from here (with NIST 800-88-compliant cryptographic overwrite) when related tasks complete. Normally this directory should be on your largest available hard drive.
WARNING: You must manually create any alternate folder specified by this location. MOVEit Automation will not create this folder if it is missing. The user under which the MOVEit Automation service runs must have read/write/delete/subdirectory access to this folder.
Delete from cache w/o overwrite. MOVEit Automation normally deletes and then overwrites its cache files with cryptographic-quality random data. If this option is enabled, file transfers might be faster (especially large, filesystem-to-filesystem transfers).
Start with scheduler disabled. Normally, MOVEit Automation starts running tasks right after starting. Select this option if, for testing or operational purposes, you want to make sure that the MOVEit Automation scheduler is not active when MOVEit Automation starts. MOVEit Automation can still start tasks explicitly via MOVEit Automation Admin or MOVEit Automation API. If this option is selected, you can enable the scheduler after startup via MOVEit Automation Admin; however, the next time MOVEit Automation starts, the scheduler will again be disabled until this option is deselected in the configuration program.
