Progress MOVEit Plugins Suite

Progress MOVEit Plugins monitoring consists means:

• Service Availability Monitoring

Install/Uninstall the Progress MOVEit Plugins Via the Neverfail Advanced Client

The Progress MOVEit Plugins can be installed either via the Neverfail CE deployment process or by using Application -> Plugins in the Neverfail Advanced Management Client using the procedure below. Neverfail recommends that for initial deployments of Progress MOVEit Plugins, installation should be performed using Engine Management Service.

To manually install the Progress MOVEit Plugins, follow the steps below:

1. Unzip the Progress MOVEit Plugins to the desired location.
   
2. Launch the Neverfail Management Advanced Client.
   
3. Navigate to Application -> Plugins .
   
4. Click on the Install button.
   
5. Click the Browse button and navigate to the location of the <plugin name>.dll file.
   
6. Click OK to complete the installation.
   
7. Repeat this process for each individual plugin.
   

To remove/uninstall the Progress MOVEit Plugins, follow the steps below:

1. Launch the Neverfail Advanced Management Client.
   
2. Navigate to Application -> Plugins .
   
3. Select the desired plugin to be removed/uninstalled.
   
4. Click on the Uninstall button in the 'Plugins' pane.
   
5. When the plugin is uninstalled, the files are not removed. This is by design for future functionality and therefore the following workaround is provided:
   
6. Copy the contents of the r2\plugins\<sponsor>\<version>folder to a different location (e.g. C:\temp).
   
7. Delete the contents of the r2\plugins\<sponsor>\<version>folder.
   
8. To reinstall the plugin, when prompted for the location of the plugin files, navigate to the new folder location (e.g. C:\temp).
   

Note: As an alternative, reinstallation can be accomplished by using the downloaded files from the original download location after removing the plugin.
