Install HA Controller

Before installation, download the latest version of MetaDefender MFT HA Controller™ Installer (metadefender-mft-ha-controller-<version>.exe) from My OPSWAT™.

Installation can be done by using the Installation Wizard, or from command line.

Installing with the Wizard

Perform the steps listed below:

  1. Start the downloaded installer.
  2. Read the Terms of Service, and accept it by checking "I agree to the license terms and conditions" checkbox.
  1. Choose installation directory if you want to install to a different location. The default installation directory is "C:\Program Files\OPSWAT\MetaDefender MFT HA Controller". By choosing the Options button, it can be changed.
  1. Click on Install.
  1. Click on Close after installation finished successfully.

Once the installation has been successfully completed, proceed with the steps in the Initial Setup guide. This ensures that MetaDefender MFT HA Controller™ is properly configured and fully operational within your environment.
