Hi Alex,
Thanks for the blog, very useful. Couple of points I found when installing the connector:
1. Dragging and dropping the EMC DLLs to the GAC didn't work for me, even with UAC disabled. Seems I had to copy gacutil.exe and gacutil.exe.config from another server and install it them with gacutil /i.
2. I also couldn't install the security trimmers using the TechNet instructions. I got this error:
"New-SPEnterpriseSearchSecurityTrimmer : The specified Pluggable Security Trimmer Implementation Type could not be loaded or it does not implement ISecurityTrimmer2. Parameter name: fullyQualifiedTypeName"
Solution was:
* Install the connector on the Query server as well (so that TRIMMERS.DLL was installed)
* Reboot Query server
* Install again but specify PublicKeyToken: 71e9bce111e9429c - not sure if this changed in SP2013 as there is a different token listed in the TechNet installation instructions, or possibly this is only in the latest patch.
Cheers,
Mark.
