About installing Meridian Enterprise Server

The Meridian Enterprise Server setup program installs the Meridian Enterprise Server core components, the selected system links and rendering modules, and several web services that are used to support publishing and Publisher queue monitoring functionality on the Meridian Enterprise Server computer. The setup program also includes components for publishing documents and monitoring the Publisher queue from a source or destination system. Typically, the Meridian Enterprise Server should be installed on more than one computer.

Installing Meridian Enterprise Server involves tasks for installing and configuring multiple components on several servers as well as for installing optional components on the computers that will act as Meridian Explorer clients. The installation tasks are listed in the order in which they should be performed in the following table and are described in the remainder of this guide.
