Value Name Data Type Value Data

DaysSinceLastOpen

DWORD

The number of days since the EDM Server service was last active. Used to display a warning to confirm the correct server time and prevent vault access. See Server Time Requirements.

EnableFQDNS

DWORD

If this value is 1, the NETBIOS names of Meridian application servers are not used and their fully-qualified domain names are used instead. This setting is provided for customers who require access to Meridian servers across domains and NETBIOS is not allowed. If this setting contains any other value, NETBIOS names are used. The default is 0.

Important!

By default, each user's local workspace folder structure contains the Meridian server's NetBIOS computer name, for example, C:\BC-WorkSpace\<UserName>\M-<ComputerName>,D-<DatastoreName>. When this setting is enabled, new local workspace folders will be created with the server's fully-qualified domain name, for example, C:\BC-WorkSpace\<UserName>\M-<ComputerName.DomainName>,D-<DatastoreName> and the existing local workspace files will not be copied to the new folders. Instead, new copies will be made in the new folders from the server as necessary. Therefore, this setting should only be enabled after business hours and after all user local workspaces have been synchronized to the server. The old local workspaces should also be deleted to prevent users from accidentally making changes to the files in the wrong folder.

Note:
  • Enabling this setting causes the complete paths of documents that are stored in Meridian local workspaces to be longer than if the setting is disabled. Some applications may not accept the longer names and fail to find documents. Before enabling this setting in a production environment, we recommend that you test it thoroughly first with the longest vault paths and all expected applications. For the shortest paths, we recommend that domain, server, folder, and document names be as short as possible and that the vault folder structure to documents be as short as possible.
  • Documents might fail to download from remote site caches with PowerWeb after enabling this setting. To resolve this, re-register the vault in Meridian Enterprise Server using the fully-qualified domain name as described in the Accruent Meridian Enterprise Server Administrator's Guide. Also update the Server URL option of the site cache configuration to the fully-qualified domain name as described in the Accruent Meridian Enterprise Server Administrator's Guide.
  • If this setting is enabled, publishing jobs executed by Meridian Enterprise Server can cause undesirable results or not work at all if the source system name in the job definition is not also specified in FQDN format. For more information about publishing job definitions, see the Accruent Meridian Enterprise Server Administrator's Guide.

 

EnforceRenamePrivilege

DWORD

If this value is 1, checks that a user has the Rename privilege before allowing them to rename documents. If this value is 0 or missing, the Rename privilege is not enforced (default).

EnterpriseServerAddress String URL of the Meridian Enterprise Server.

HyperionServerAddress

String

URL of the Meridian Enterprise Server web server to use for user account management or audit log storage.

LastEffectivity

Binary

Date and time of the last access of the server. This value is used for checking if one transaction takes place after a previous transaction, hence making sure the versioning system is working correctly.

LogLastEffectivityChange

Binary

If this value is 1, a message is added to the Application event log that records when the value of the LastEffectivity value is changed. If this value is 0, no additional messages are logged. This value is intended for troubleshooting mismatches between the Meridian server time and that of client PCs.

LicenseDB

String

Path to the Meridian license database file.

LicenseServerMachine

String

Fully-qualified domain name of the computer hosting the Accruent License Server. Changes take effect only when the license server, Meridian Enterprise, and Meridian Enterprise Server computers are rebooted.

HideVaultIfUserHasNoAccess

DWORD

This value is set by the Hide vaults to which a user has no access option of the EDM Server. Set this to 1 to hide inaccessible vaults. Set to 0 (default) to show all vaults.

RepairWorkflowProps

DWORD

If this value is 1, the upgrade handler repairs wrong values in workflow properties. If this value is 0 or omitted, no repair is performed.

SharedFolder

String

Path to the publicly shared folder that contains the PowerUser interface extensions and user assistance content. See Move the BC-Meridian Extensions Folder.

ShowUsers DWORD Interval in milliseconds to refresh the Users tab in Meridian Enterprise Administrator. The default is 5000 (5 sec), the minimum value is 1000 (1 sec), 0 disables refresh.
TablesDB DWORD If this value is 1 (default for 64-bit version), lookup tables are stored in Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition instead of in an Microsoft Access file. If this value is 0 for a 64-bit version, a 64-bit OLEDB driver must be installed separately as described in Upgrade External Tables To SQL Server Compact Edition.

TablesDBSqlCeOptions

String

Optional parameters to add to the connection string used by Meridian Enterprise to connect to the SQL Server Compact Edition database where external lookup lists are stored. By default, the connection string is not editable and includes only the DataSource parameter.

For example, to increase the default maximum database from 256 MB to 2 GB:

SSCE:Max Database Size=2048

TablesDBSqlCeProvider

String The version of Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition to use for the external tables database. The default is Microsoft.SQLSERVER.CE.OLEDB.3.5. To use Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition 4.0, set to Microsoft.SQLSERVER.CE.OLEDB.4.0.

TablesDBMsJetOptions

String

Optional parameters to add to the connection string used by Meridian Enterprise to connect to the Microsoft Access database where external lookup lists are stored. By default, the connection string is not editable and includes only the DataSource parameter.

For example, to increase the default maximum database from 256 MB to 2 GB:

SSCE:Max Database Size=2048

TaskServerMachine

String

Name of the computer hosting the Meridian Task Server.

UseAMFS

DWORD

If this value is 1, use AMFS. If this value is 0 (default), use Local Workspace. This setting applies to all vaults residing on this server. Can be overridden by the vault and client UseAMFS settings. See Local Workspace.

UseEnterpriseServerForAuditLog

DWORD

If this value is 1, use the Meridian Enterprise Server specified for the HyperionServerAddress value for audit log storage. If this value is 0 (default), use the database connection specified by the AuditConnectionString value as described in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Cyco\AutoManager Meridian\CurrentVersion\Installed DataStores\<vaultname>.

UseEnterpriseServerForUserManagement

DWORD

If this value is 1, use the Meridian Enterprise Server specified for the HyperionServerAddress value for user account storage. If this value is 0 (default), use a local Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition database.

UseImportedFrom

DWORD

Controls setting of the AMFSObjectPropertySet.ImportedFrom property during document import operations. Supported values are:

0 = Empty string
1 = Full path of the source file (default)
2 = Source file name only

This setting is applied if the server registry key with the same name and described in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cyco\AutoManager Meridian\CurrentVersion\Client\Settings is missing.

UsePURasOFF

DWORD

If this value is 1 (default), a PowerUser license will be claimed by the Office client. If none are available, the user will be denied access. If this value is 0, a PowerUser license will not be claimed, and the user will be denied access. See Accruent License Server Service.

UserGroupPrefix

String

Can be used to filter the user group names returned from IAMDocumentRepository2.GetUserGroups. If no value is specified, all groups are returned.
