Configuring a vault for BlueCielo Publisher

After the Publisher components have been installed during Meridian Enterprise Server setup, the vaults that will serve as source or destination systems must be configured.

To configure the Meridian Enterprise application server:

Select the vault that you want to configure in the right pane.
On the Action menu, select Properties. The vault’s Properties dialog box appears.
Click the Advanced Features tab. The Advanced Features page appears.
Select Enable BlueCielo Publisher extension.
Click OK to save your changes.
In Meridian Enterprise Configurator, expand Environment in the configuration tree and select Vault Settings. The vault's configuration pages appear.
Click the Enterprise Server tab. The Publisher configuration options appear.
Click Edit. The page becomes editable.
Click options or type values using the descriptions in the following table.

Publisher configuration options
Option	Description
BC Publisher web services address	Accept the default address created during installation or type the address where the Publisher web services are installed, for example, http://<ServerName>/BCEnterprise. Click Get Jobs to retrieve the names of the defined publishing jobs, page sizes, and pen settings filenames from the Meridian Enterprise Server computer. Note This address must be correct before documents can be published.
User name	The name of a user account with access to the Publisher web services. The user name may be specified with the domain name, if necessary (<DOMAIN>\<UserName>, for example). This account is used only for Meridian communications with the Publisher web services. It is not the name of the account under which publishing jobs will run. This name is necessary if users do not have access to the Publisher web services. If empty (the default), the service account is used. This option is also necessary if Publisher is installed on a separate computer from the Meridian Enterprise Web Access server and renditions must be updated by workflow transitions that are executed by web client users.
Password	The password for the account specified in User Name.
Prevent duplicate registration	Ignores new publishing tasks for documents for which publishing tasks already exist in the queue. Note This option is not available if the Publisher database is hosted by an Oracle server. If enabled, Fail the whole batch operation when any duplicate is found will cause the publishing job to be revoked if duplicate documents are detected within a batch submitted using the VBScript methods of the MeridianQueue object described in the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Server Administrator's Guide. .
Rendition job	Select the name of a publishing job to use to generate renditions in the vault.
Synchronize rendition lookup lists	Populates the Rendition Page Pen Table and Rendition Page Size lookup lists with values retrieved from the Meridian Enterprise Server computer. These and other lookup lists are created when the Publisher extension is installed with Meridian Enterprise. The lookup lists are described in the following table.

The rendition lookup lists provide values for the properties in the Rendition Properties property set and appear on the Rendition property page in the Meridian Enterprise client applications. The Rendition property page appears when the Use renditions option has been enabled for the vault in the Meridian Enterprise PowerUser client. The lookup list values may be modified to meet specific requirements.

Rendition property set lookup lists
Name	Description
Rendition Page Color	Color depths to render to: Color or Black and white.
Rendition Page Layout	Views available within the source documents to render.
Rendition Page Orientation	Orientations of the page to render to: Landscape or Portrait.
Rendition Page Pen Table	AutoVue pen settings filenames to apply to the renditions. Applicable only if the publishing job is configured to use the AutoVue rendering module. Filenames are those that are available on the computer. By default, they are installed at: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Cyco Shared\AutoVue For more information about configuring pen tables, see "Pen Settings" in the Oracle AutoVue Desktop Deployment Viewing Configuration Guide that can be downloaded from the Oracle website.
Rendition Page Size	Sizes of the pages to render to. Values are retrieved from the printing settings of the Meridian Enterprise Server computer when the PublishDocumentUIExtension extension is configured.

Grant the privileges described in the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Server Administrator's Guide to the Meridian Enterprise roles that you want to allow to use the command. For more information on granting security privileges, see the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Configuration Guide.
