Understanding the licensing

One license for this module must be installed at the BlueCielo license server of each site for each Meridian Enterprise application server at that site. For information about registering licenses, see the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Administrator's Guide.

Warning    Although the GCF may seem to function when licenses are shared between Meridian Enterprise application servers, this situation can result in incomplete updates of remote sites.

Note

• The Meridian Enterprise import and export processors will claim a database connection license when running. In addition, the Meridian Enterprise import processor will claim one database connection license and one Office Web Client license (Meridian Enterprise 2009 and higher) on the remote server. We recommend that you reserve these licenses for the account under which the processors run as described in the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Administrator's Guide.
• When the Collaboration page is shown in PowerUser, an Office Web Client license will be claimed when available. If no Office Web Client license is available, however, the functionality of the Collaboration page is still available.
• Due to technical reasons, the GCF will claim a database connection license and an Office Web Client license for each remote user querying a document’s status when Windows authentication is used. When basic authentication is used, all remote users share a single Office Web Client license.
