Meridian Enterprise can connect to a Meridian Enterprise Server computer to share a number of services in common:
These features are configured in Meridian Enterprise Administrator for all vaults that are hosted by the same server.
To configure the connection to Meridian Enterprise Server:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
|
Enterprise Server web server |
Type the server name, IP port number, domain name, and account name in Address using the following syntax. By default, the account that is used for the connection is specified during installation as described in Installing the server components. To use a different account, specify it with <DomainName>\<AccountName> as shown. <ServerName>:<PortNumber>@<DomainName>\<AccountName> Also enter the value in the Audit table connection string option of the vault properties as described in Viewing and editing vault properties. |

You may also specify the port number using the syntax: <ServerName>:<Port> If Meridian Enterprise and Meridian Enterprise Server are running on separate computers, specify the computer and account names using the following syntax: Host=<ServerName>;Port=<Number>;UPN=<Domain>\<Account>;Password=<Password> The port number and password are optional. |
|
Use Enterprise server for user management |
If enabled, Meridian Enterprise security will use the groups and users that are defined in Meridian Enterprise Server Administration Console on the computer specified for the Computer running the Enterprise services option instead of in Meridian Enterprise Configurator. Changes to the users and groups can be made from either application. For information on managing users and groups in Meridian Enterprise Server, see the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Server Administrator's Guide. |
|
Use Enterprise server for audit trail |
If enabled, Meridian Enterprise actions will be logged to the audit log database in Meridian Enterprise Server running on the computer specified for the Enterprise Server web server option instead of in a separate database. The actions are combined with the Meridian Enterprise Server actions that are also logged. For information on managing the Meridian Enterprise Server audit log, see the BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise Server Administrator's Guide. For information about setting the audit trail database connection in Meridian, see the BlueCielo FDA Module Configuration Guide. |
