BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise 2017 SP1 Administrator's Guide

Understanding the system requirements

In principle, a client connection to the Meridian application server is not required in order to submit a task to the Task Server. However, this depends on the nature of the task. The following figure shows the relation of the Task Server to other software components using the example email task extension. It illustrates that the Task Server does not rely on any other Meridian software.

The only requirements for using the Task Server are:

• Client applications (PowerUser, Web Access) must be able to create a DCOM connection to the Task Server.
• The task extension (DLL) must be registered on the Task Server computer.
• Any services or resources used by the task extension must be available (for example, Microsoft Collaboration Data Objects in the figure).
