GoAnywhere MFT is the next evolution in Managed File Transfer, which merges workflow automation capabilities (adapted from GoAnywhere Director) with secure FTP server and collaboration features (adapted from GoAnywhere Services). Both GoAnywhere Director and GoAnywhere Services products have been superseded by the GoAnywhere MFT solution. Menu Enhancement The menu structure in GoAnywhere Services has been reorganized in GoAnywhere MFT. Notable changes include: l Admin User management, Web User management, and Login Methods are now found in the Users menu. l The Service Manager, GoDrive Settings, and Secure Mail Settings are now found in the Services menu. l The SSL Certificate Manager, SSH Key Manager, FIPS 140-2 Compliance, and Encrypted Folders Manager are now found in the Encryption menu. l System configuration settings, such as Global Settings, Database Configuration, Cluster Manager, and IP Filter are now found in the System menu. l The GoAnywhere MFT license is now managed in the Help menu. View the GoAnywhere Managed File Transfer User Guide for more information. License Prerequisite GoAnywhere MFT requires a new license key which is issued through the GoAnywhere Customer Portal. During the upgrade, you will be presented with a base 64 encoded license bundle (example below) that will be used to upgrade your existing license. Follow the instructions on the screen to activate your license. GoAnywhere Services Upgrade Guide www.GoAnywhere.com 4 Upgrade Process Once your license is activated on the Customer Portal, download the license to your workstation by clicking the Download button. You can also download the license at any time by expanding the Active license row and clicking the Download button under the license key. Once the gamft.lic file is downloaded, copy the file to the installation directory on the GoAnywhere server that produced the license activation request. Windows Example l Installation Directory: C:\Program Files\Linoma Software\GoAnywhere Services l License File Location: C:\Program Files\Linoma Software\GoAnywhere Services\gamft.lic Linux/Unix Example l Installation Directory: /usr/local/Linoma_Software/GoAnywhere_Services l License File Location: /usr/local/Linoma_Software/GoAnywhere_Services/gamft.lic IBM i Example l Installation Directory: /local/gaservices l License File Location: /local/gaservices/gamft.lic The activated license exclusively belongs to the GoAnywhere installation that produced the activation request. It cannot be used to upgrade or run any other install of GoAnywhere. Upgrade Process Typically the upgrade process will only take a few minutes to run. It is important that you perform the upgrade process when no active users are connected to GoAnywhere Services since it must be shut down during the upgrade process. An upgrade script (program) is available which will perform all the necessary steps to migrate GoAnywhere Services to GoAnywhere MFT. Download the latest upgrade script by visiting the GoAnywhere Customer Portal at my.goanywhere.com. 1. Verify you meet the minimum system requirements. 2. Obtain the correct upgrade file. 3. Follow the steps for the installed platform: l Windows l Linux/UNIX l IBM i 4. If Secure Mail is enabled in GoAnywhere Services, an upgrade to the Secure Mail Plugin for Outlook may be required. 5. If GoDrive is enabled in GoAnywhere Services, an upgrade to the GoDrive Sync Client for Windows or Mac OS X may be required. GoAnywhere MFT 5.0.0 and higher requires Java Virtual Machine (JRE) version 1.6 or later. Follow the instructions here to upgrade the JRE version for GoAnywhere MFT. GoAnywhere Services Upgrade Guide www.GoAnywhere.com 5 Secure Mail Plugin for Outlook Secure Mail Plugin for Outlook The GoAnywhere Outlook Plugin allows you to send secure messages and attachments via GoAnywhere MFT using Microsoft Outlook®. The GoAnywhere Outlook Plugin must be upgraded when new Secure Mail features are released in GoAnywhere MFT. For more information on upgrading the GoAnywhere Outlook Plugin, see the GoAnywhere Outlook Plugin User's Guide. GoDrive Desktop Sync Client The GoDrive desktop sync client allows you to synchronize files from your Windows or Mac OS X PC to the GoAnywhere MFT Web Client.

For more information on upgrading GoDrive, see the GoDrive for Windows or GoDrive for Mac OSX User Guide. Browser Compatibility The GoAnywhere MFT Administrator and Web Client interface's require modern internet browsers that support HTML 5.
