A vault identifier is a string that specifies the unique location of a vault. The vault identifier is used by the Meridian Connection API to determine the vault with which to work.
The vault identifier has the syntax \\<server>\<vault>, where <server> is the server computer name and <vault> is the internal name of the vault on the specified server. Alternatively, the datastore and section names can be specified, which are often identical, and they can be found in the Meridian Enterprise Administrator utility.
Examples of vault identifiers:
\\meridiansvr\Htrieve1 \\meridiansvr\Mechanical\Mechanical

Beginning with version 1.8 of the Meridian Connection API, a vault identifier may consist of only a vault name and the computer’s default server, if set, will be assumed. |
