MicroStrategy System Manager lets you combine multiple, sequential processes for your MicroStrategy environment into a single workflow that can be deployed at a scheduled time or on demand. You can create workflows for different tasks, such as installing, maintaining, and upgrading MicroStrategy environments; backing up projects; and launching or shutting down Cloud instances. These workflows can be deployed using a standard interface, an interactive command line process, or a completely silent configuration process.

You use System Manager to create a workflow visually, by dragging and dropping processes and linking them together. This allows you to see the step-by-step process that leads the workflow from one process to the next. This visual approach to creating a workflow can help you to notice opportunities to troubleshoot and error check processes as part of a workflow.

For information on using System Manager, refer to the System Administration Guide.
