    How-To Silent Install Limagito File Mover

    We are using Inno Setup as installer. Inno Setup is a powerful installer and has quite some optional command line parameters. Recently a customer had an issue trying to achieve a silent install. We fixed this in the installer starting from v2021.10.6.0

    Some examples, be sure the command is run elevated (As Administrator). We have dowloaded the 64bit installer in “C:\Test\Setup\”.

    Example of a silent install including our Web Remote option (one long line of command parameters):

    “C:\Test\Setup\setup.limagitox.x64.exe” /MERGETASKS=”web” /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /LOG /NORESTART /FORCECLOSEAPPLICATIONS

    Example of a silent install excluding our Web Remote option (one long line of command parameters):

    “C:\Test\Setup\setup.limagitox.x64.exe” /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /LOG /NORESTART /FORCECLOSEAPPLICATIONS

    Example of a silent install including our Application and Web Remote option (one long line of command parameters):

    “C:\Test\Setup\setup.limagitox.x64.exe” /MERGETASKS=”appuse,web” /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /LOG /NORESTART /FORCECLOSEAPPLICATIONS

    Q&A: How should I install Limagito File Mover

    Q: How should I install Limagito File Mover

    A: This depends on how our File Mover will be used. Most of the time users install our file mover engine as a service. The advantage is that the system, where our file mover is installed on, does not need to be logged on. Never (ever) run both, application and service engine, at the same time.

    • Installing Limagito File Mover as a Service
      • Very important:
        • Change the ‘logon as’ user of the File Mover Service to a user with sufficient rights!
        • The ‘logon as’ user should belong to the ‘Local Administrator’ group of the system where the service is installed on.
      • What should be running on your system when using our File Mover as Service:
        • LimagitoXS.exe = File Mover Service Engine doing all the work.
        • LimagitoXC.exe = File Mover Configuration Tool. You will use this shortly to import the License file and to install the File Mover Service Engine (and Web Remote Service = optional).
        • LimagitoXR.exe = File Mover Remote Tool. Will be used during configuration and monitoring. Don’t need to be running.
      •  What should NOT be running on your system when using our File Mover as Service:
        • LimagitoXA.exe = File Mover Application Engine. It’s even a good idea to remove the shortcut to the LimagitoXA.exe file.
      • What is optional:
        • LimagitoXW.exe = File Mover Web Remote Tool. This is our web based remote tool and can be installed using our Configuration Tool (LimagitoXC.exe). It’s a second service with an internal web server which gives you the possibility to control our File Mover using your browser.
      • Using a drive letter when using LimagitoX as a service

     

    • Installing Limagito File Mover as Application
      • What should be running on your system when using our File Mover as Application:
        • LimagitoXA.exe = File Mover Application Engine doing all the work.
        • LimagitoXC.exe = File Mover Configuration Tool. You will use this shortly to import the License file and optionally to install the File Mover Web Remote Service.
        • LimagitoXR.exe = File Mover Remote Tool. Will be used during configuration and monitoring. Don’t need to be running.
      •  What should NOT be running on your system when using our File Mover as Application:
        • LimagitoXS.exe = File Mover Service Engine.
      • What is optional:
        • LimagitoXW.exe = File Mover Web Remote Tool. This is our web based remote tool and can be installed using our Configuration Tool (LimagitoXC.exe). It’s a second service with an internal web server which gives you the possibility to control our File Mover using your browser.

    Q&A: Need more Details on LimagitoX File Mover Application

    Q: Need more Details on Limagito Application.  We were evaluating the Limagito File Mover application and are very much interested to implement it in our IT system. We need your help to get below info so that i can discuss with our Management on Limagito implementation.

    1) Do you have the minimum system requirement/Benchmark for Limagito application? We have 1000s of files that moved on daily basis in our IT system.

    This depends on the amount of rules and options you are using. When you only have a couple of rules then our requirements won’t be much. Sometimes users start with a couple of rules but end with a couple of hundred so our advice is to use a server with at least 8GByte RAM. We prefer a bit more because the OS itself often takes quite a bit. Sometimes some extra services are running.  Our File Mover uses threads heavily so 4 cpu cores is an absolute minimum. Our advice is to increase these to at least 8 cores. FYI, when you have 200 rules who are triggered regularly (which is not abnormal, we have users running +/- 400 rules) then this means that you are running 200 small applications. So you need quite some power (core, memory and disk speed).

    For a disk speed test we use the following tool (use at your own risk): disk-benchmark

    Result on a ‘simple’ dual core virtual machine running Windows 10 Professional so you can compare if needed.

    Disk Speed measurement

    2) How many interfaces/rules can be created in Limagito? is there any limitation? How many threads/Rules can be executed in parallel/Simultanious?

    Our advice is to use a maximum of 400 rules per instance of our File Mover. If you need more, please install a second instance of our file mover.

    3) What is the license cost of Limagito application?

    License Link

    4) What is the support cost & SLAs of Limagito application?

    July 2020, support is included in the Licence (1 year for Single+ and Site+, 3 years for Corporate+ License type)

    5) Do you have any sort of documentation that we can refer to?

    https://limagito.com/file-mover-support/

    We also can give a demo (remote) of our file mover where we show you the basic setup (+/- 1 hour).

    6) We downloaded the evaluation copy and we could not test it more by creating multiple rules. Can you provide us temporary license for limited period so that we can try creating more rules and test it?

    No trial license available due to bad experiences in the past. You can start with a Single License and upgrade later to another type of License (only the difference needs to be paid).

    7) Do you have your prime customer list who implemented the Limagito application? and the total cutomers who implemented that?

    We will never share any information about our customers.

    8) What known problems Limagito application has?

    Like every software, also we write bugs. The history of the different version are available here: https://limagito.com/file-mover-downloads/

    If you need more details, please let us know.
