First: Install the Software

Basic MOVEit Automation uses two installation programs: MOVEit Automation on a server and MOVEit Automation Admin that provides access to MOVEit Automation.

Your first task is to install MOVEit Automation on a supported platform. Refer to the MOVEit Automation Installation Guide for more information.

Next, you should install MOVEit Automation Admin either on the same server as MOVEit Automation or on a remote system.

If you just want to take a tour of MOVEit Automation, take the defaults for all installation options. You will, however, be required to point to a license file.

To administer MOVEit Automation remotely, you can also use the standalone MOVEit Automation Admin installation program to set up the client on each of your remote desktops.

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