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 may 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.

Note    When the Collaboration Status page is shown, a NetViewer (Meridian Enterprise 2008a and lower) or Office Web Client (Meridian Enterprise 2009 and higher) will be claimed when available. If no NetViewer or Office Web Client license is available, however, the functionality of the Collaboration Status page is still available.

Note    Due to technical reasons, the GCF will claim a database connection license and a NetViewer or 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 NetViewer or Office Web Client license.
