Local workspace is the name of the area on your computer’s hard disk where Meridian Enterprise copies vault documents when you view or edit them in a workflow. Meridian Enterprise also copies all referenced documents to your local workspace read-only. This process is similar to the way web browsers cache web pages, images, and other content to improve performance. Local workspaces especially improve the performance of working with large files and assemblies.
The local workspace is automatically synchronized with the vault by Application Integration while you continue to work. Meridian Enterprise does the tedious job of keeping track of which files are newer, which files are under change and by whom, and which vault files should be updated from the local workspace copies. Vault synchronization can be configured to occur periodically or you can run it manually, if needed.
By default, all documents copied to local workspace are read-only. When you run the Open in Application command within one of the Meridian Enterprise applications (or use Application Integration from within other applications), the local workspace copy is detected, made writable, and opened in the application. When
Local workspace uses a limited amount of disk space. As more documents are downloaded and this limit is reached, the oldest documents that are read-only are automatically deleted until sufficient space is freed for newer documents. The least recently used files are deleted first. This disk management happens in the background without your intervention. No documents that are being edited are deleted.
Note Some documents may reside in folders that are configured to use a shared network folder as a workspace instead of your local workspace. For information about working with documents in shared workspace folders, see NEW Working with shared workspace folders.
