What is the survey? 
In the 2010 IBM Tech Trends Survey, more than 50% of the respondents told us mobile application development will overtake other types of development by 2015. And nearly 70% felt cloud computing will become the primary way organizations will acquire IT in the next five years. 
 
The survey garnered press coverage across the globe, allowing IBM to highlight its offerings for the top trends identified.

This type of question i answered a several times.

 The solution posted here is only one of the several solutions and depends on the architecture and servers on your deployment.

How can you implement LDAP failover for IBM WebSphere Portal version 6.1, 6.1.5, and 7 so that a replica LDAP server can be leveraged for cases in which your primary LDAP server is unavailable?

TN 1282720

Use the following steps for cases in which you configure security to a standalone LDAP:

1. Perform the WebSphere Application Server configuration steps by referencing the topic, Configuring multiple LDAP servers for user registry failover.

In addition to following the steps documented in the above link, you must follow the steps below to ensure that the Virtual Member Manager (VMM) component used by WebSphere Portal is aware of the replica LDAP servers.

2. Open the wimconfig.xml file.
For a stand-alone portal, use /config/cells//wim/config/wimconfig.xml.
For a portal cluster, use /config/cells//wim/config/wimconfig.xml

3. Search for the following line:

4. Add the failover LDAP entry under the line in Step 3:

5. Disable connection pooling with the following setting: connectionPool="false"
6. Save the changes and restart the servers.  

Use the following steps for cases in which you configure security to a federated LDAP:

1. Log into the Deployment Manager or the WebSphere Administration Console.

2. Navigate to Secure administration, applications, and infrastructure --> Federated repositories --> Manage repositories --> repository name.

3. Find the following line:
Failover server used when primary is not available

4. Add your hostname and port for the failover server.

5. Confirm the connectionPool is set to false in the wimconfig.xml file.

For a stand-alone portal, use /config/cells//wim/config/wimconfig.xml.
For a portal cluster, use /config/cells//wim/config/wimconfig.xml

6. Save the changes and restart all servers.

From developerworks…

For any database, the first step to accessing data is making a connection from the client to the server. You may need to establish connections from clients to your IBM® DB2® Universal Database™ server across a wide area network or from the Web. If you have many connections coming in, with the potential for overloading your network or server at peak times, you may be looking at implementing a load balancing solution to spread requests across multiple servers. The flexibility of routing these connections by using facilities outside of DB2 has many potential applications.

This article discusses one method of routing TCP/IP DB2 connections using an open source TCP proxy utility called Balance.

A customer would like  to set “No Letterhead” and prevent changes for all users using policies but it not work.

I found a SPR LMAN6H6HB7 and the workaround is:

the  "No letterhead" setting does go into effect correctly if it's changed to 'set value when modified' and changed back to 'set value and prevent changes.

1- go to the Policy Settings document and edit it
2- change from " Set Value and prevent changes" to "Set value whenever modified" , save & Close
3- Control&Shift&F9 to refresh the views
4- Go back to the Policy setting and edit the document, Set this time back to " Set Value and prevent changes"
5- Push the policy now to users, " tell adminp process mail"
6- Restart notes client, authenticate with server and check letterhead

and it works 🙂

Starting a review of Domino environment today.

Our goal is to reduce the size of databases and enable DAOS.

I start converting all the databases (test server) to ODS 51. To covert i use the command load compact -c -v -n.

The switch -c is copy style, -v enables the “Compress document data” database property and -n enables “Compress database design”.

The next step used was load compact -c -ZU to upgrade attachments to LZ1 compression from Huffman compression.

Using this two steps we save 63% of disk space in one database. DAOS is not enabled yet.

The resut is from :
