Appendix A

Understanding the External Document Connector

33

Adding and removing processors

You can run a maximum of 16 of each type of processor.
Processors can be run on the same computer that runs the External
Document Connector (the RightFax server) or on remote
computers to take advantage of the additional processor power.

Note Although it is possible to install and configure more than 16 of
each type of processor, only 16 of each will actually function at any given
time.

To add new instances of a processor

1.

Run the EDC Monitor and select Tools > Services to open the
Services dialog box.

2.

If you want to add the service to a remote computer that is not
listed, click Add Computer and specify the name of the remote
computer.

3.

Select the computer to which you want to add the service and
click Add Service. This opens the Add a Service

dialog box.

Figure 3.19 The Add a Service Dialog Box

4.

Under Services, select the type of service to add.

5.

Under Login Account, enter the user name and password of
the user account that the service will use to start up. This user
account should have full administrative privileges to the
computer you selected in step 3.

6.

Click OK.

Note If you are adding processors to a remote computer and you
receive the message “EDC Manager has not been properly
configured to allow services to be installed,” or if the services fail to
start, see the following section on adding processes to a remote
computer.

If you are adding processors to a remote computer

To run External Document Connector processors, a remote
computer must know how to locate certain folders on the RightFax
server used by the processors. You must enter the share names of
these folders in the RightFax External Document Connector
Manager Configuration before you will be able to run the processor
on remote computers.
