Register Site Cache Servers

If you use remote site cache servers to improve the performance of the Meridian Enterprise Web Client for remote users, you can manage their configuration from a single place within the Enterprise Server Administration Console.

Important!

In environments with multiple vaults, the vault names must be unique and not be sub-strings of other vault names. For example, vaults with names like Orion and Orion_South can result in documents being cached from the wrong vault.

Note:

The Meridian Enterprise Server computer must be able to connect to and access the cache folder on the site cache server either within the same domain or between trusted domains. The BCSiteCache application pool on the site cache server must use the same identity as the BCEnterprise application pool (to access Meridian Explorer repository documents) and the BCMeridian application pool (to access Meridian Enterprise vault documents). This account should be granted full permissions to the folder specified for Cache folder as described in Configure Site Cache Servers.

Users must have the Download Native Document security privilege to view native documents when a site cache server is registered.
