32-Bit Domino Running Poor on Windows 64-Bit

  • 26 Oct, 2009

The text bellow is from TN 1391477(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=463&context=SSKTMJ&context=SSPQ69&context=SSKTWP&context=SSRNU3&context=SSRNUY&q1=1391477&uid=swg21391477&loc=enUS&cs=utf-8&lang=en) When running a Lotus Domino 32-Bit server on Microsoft Windows 64-Bit, you notice a high memory allocation.  This results in poor system performance and the server being low on physical memory. This is a result of a change Microsoft has made to their API SetSystemFilecache().....

Remove encryption from Domino documents

  • 22 Dec, 2020

When you create mail journaling you can encrypt all documents using the Administrator ID.  Last week a customer ask to add access for another user (developer). The Admin remove the database encryption but lots off documents remain encrypted . The solution was to remove the document encryption using the following steps: To remove encryption from documents: 1. First, create a view named "Encrypted". The view selection formula you use will vary depending on the type of database with which you are working. - If working in a mail file, then use the following: - SELECT (Encrypt = "1" |  EncryptionFlags = "2") If you are working in a non-mail file and want to remove encryption from documen

A week within the Matrix

  • 16 Sep, 2013

The past week has been very productive and exciting. I worked with two engineers from RedPill which are very famous in the community of ICS and IBM also Champions.
This week I was totally immersed in a process of modernization of Notes/Domino applications that really impressed everybody, as much as for the customer, which has one of the highest Notes/Domino installations in the world.
The numbers are impressive, both in number of users, servers and applications. In a week we have created  200+ Notes  applications that are now available for mobile devices. Take a look on what RedPill can do for modernizing Notes/Domino applications Thank you Nathan  Freeman and Peter Presnell for an a

After an Apple OS upgrade, why does Traveler not sync?

  • 25 Mar, 2013

After upgrading an Apple device, the Lotus Traveler account may no longer connect to the server with the error "Cannot Get Mail: the connection to the server failed". The user may also see a prompt immediately after the upgrade with the error "Password Incorrect: Enter the password for the Exchange account". On the Apple device, the Exchange account password (used by Traveler) is not always retained after the iOS upgrade. Currently there is no resolution to prevent the user from having to reenter their password (as detailed in the solution listed below). However, the following IBM Feature Request has been opened for further investigation: RSSN-8K2GWU In most of these cases, the problem

After upgrading to Lotus Notes 8.5.1 Client and Template, users’ mail files appear as an Archive

  • 26 Oct, 2010

After further investigation, it was determined that the existence of the "ArchiveDatabase" field, stored in the "Archive Database Profile" was the cause of the issue.  By default, the "ArchiveDatabase" field does not exist in a mail file's "Archive Database Profile", but it does exist in an Archive database. Once this field was removed, the mail file no longer appeared as an archive.  The following LotusScript button code can be used to delete this field: Sub Click(Source As Button)
        Dim s As New NotesSession
        Dim db As Notesdatabase

An issue has been identified that affects Notes Traveler calendar entries on some Apple devices that are upgraded to iOS 8.

  • 19 Sep, 2014

In some cases, after an Apple device is upgraded to iOS 8, some or all of the Calendar entries in the Notes Traveler account no longer appear on the device. It is important to note that although the Calendar entries do not appear on the device, the entries are NOT permanently lost. The missing entries, in fact, still exist in the user's Domino mail file, and they can be resynced to the device via this workaround(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21684863&myns=swglotus&mynp=OCSSYRPW&mync=E)

Best Practices to manage and maintain Domino Attachment and Object Service (DAOS)

  • 03 Sep, 2014

Below are some basic points that one should remember as best practices to manage and maintain DAOS feature in IBM Notes Domino environment.
1. Domino server must be 8.5.x and onwards. All database ODS must be 48 and onwards. 1. Transaction Logging must be enabled on server and it is recommended to keep transaction log directory outside of domino/data folder, in a separate drive. 1. DAOS Directory path should be kept out of Domino/Data directory, in a separate drive. 1. Make sure DAOS Catalog Status always remain in SYNCHRONIZED status. You can monitor DAOS Catalog status using command 'Tell DAOSmgr Status'. As far as DAOS Catalog remains in SYNCHRONIZED status, DAOS functionality will wo

Better way to remove people from type-ahead/recent contacts

  • 01 Feb, 2012

From Notes Tips We've had plenty of tips surrounding Recent Contacts(http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/notestipsblog.nsf/dx/recent-contacts), and it's a highly talked-about area. In Notes 8.5.3, we've continued to improve how you can control Recent Contacts/type-ahead. In the past, we made it easier to remove "incorrect" contacts from type-ahead, by letting you delete a contact from the right-click menu:

Can the time in which a changed Internet password is cached ever be modified

  • 30 Nov, 2011

When AdminP processes a password change in Lotus Notes/Lotus Domino, the old password is cached by the server for two days. What if this cache period is too long or too short ? Can the cache period ever be modified? Yes, the cache period can be modified by setting the following parameter in the server's notes.ini file:
HTTPPwdChangeCacheHours. Use the following format: HTTPPwdChangeCacheHours=x
(where x is the number of hours of caching time for the old password) During the cache period, both old and new passwords are valid, assuming the change has replicated to the server being accessed. In addition, the Security Settings Document --> Password Management --> "Allow users to chang

Choosing a suffix

  • 11 Jun, 2010

Reading something about LDAP  and i found this redbook:  http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/SG244986/wwhelp/wwhimpl/java/html/wwhelp.htm And this definition: When deciding on suffixes, where a suffix is the root DN of a directory tree, it is a good idea to use the same naming structure for LDAP as is used for X.500. Using the X.500 methodology would lead to choosing a suffix like o=ibm,c=us or ou=raleigh,o=ibm. This method will set the root of the directory tree to a specific organization in a specific country or to a specific organization and organizational unit. However, it is not necessary to do this, unless there are plans to participate in an X.500 directory service, since LDAP do

I was "synchronizing" two clustered Domino Servers. I opened a PMR about  the trash folder is different on two replicas.  The answer: When you create a new replica with soft deletions enabled, the soft deletions are not being carried over to the new replica. Notes and Domino are working as designed. An enhancement request to include this functionality has been submitted to Quality Engineering; however, there are no current plans to implement this functionality. Workaround used in one case to synchronize the trash folder. Once that the new replica is being created, if new documents are deleted and sent to the trash folder, these new document do correctly replicate between the replicas and

DAOS, Antivirus & "File is in use by another program"

  • 08 Mar, 2010

From TN1381280 After DAOS has been enabled on a Domino server, if the virus scanner has not been configured properly to avoid .NLO files, "File is in use" errors may occur. The virus scanner should be configured to prevent processing the. NLO files in the DAOS repository.  This can be accomplished either by specifying that the scanner skip files with an .NLO suffix, or by specifying that the DAOS base directory (and all subdirectories) should be skipped by the scans. Instead of scanning the .NLO files directly, the attachments should be scanned via the Domino server by an application, such as an add-in program, that works through the Domino API.

  • 13 Feb, 2012

From the TN 1358548(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21358548). Before implementing DAOS take care of your backup strategy In a standard Notes® database (NSF), the attachments are stored inside the NSF file itself, and the database is self-contained. In order to back up a standard Notes database, only the NSF file itself needs to be backed up. After you introduce DAOS, the NSF files that participate in DAOS contain only references to the NLO files where the attachment content is stored. As a result, backing up the NSF alone is no longer enough. The NLO data needs to be backed up as well.

If a document is deleted and the deletion stub is purged before replication, the other replica copy does not have the information that the document has been deleted and replicates the document just like a new document. 2. A document was modified on one database replica after it was deleted on another replica copy.

Denied access Notes users are still able to access mails through IBM Notes Traveler

  • 27 Aug, 2014

When people leaves the company i always put the user on a deny access group, remove the account and delete the mail database. But if you do not delete the account... Once the user added in Deny access group to Deny Traveler access you need to enable "Enforce server access setting" to Yes in the server document under Ports -> Internet Ports -> Web tab. Follow the below steps to enable the 'Enforce server access setting' to Yes in Server document: 1) Open the Domino Administrator client. 2) Chose the Traveler Server document . 3) Go to Ports -> Internet Ports -> Web tab and set the value for the below field to "YES". Enforce server access setting

Depois do feriado....

  • 15 Jun, 2009

Agora que o feriado já passou vou iniciar mais um período de certificações. Tenho como objetivo renovar as certificações Domino Administrator, Domino Designer e também WebSpehre Portal Administrator. Vou repetir a estratégia de sempre.
A primeira que irei renovar será a Domino Administrator para versão 8. O ambiente que terei de preparar vai ser em uma VM pois meu Note já está com tudo instalado na versão 8.5 e como o objetivo é só a prova mesmo não vale a pena remover tudo.

Diagnostic (debug) NOTES.INI settings for dbdirman can cause DAOS to delete attachments prematurely

  • 02 Nov, 2009

From TN 1385425: Certain diagnostic NOTES.INI settings related to dbdirman can cause an undercount of DAOS references during resync.  Undercounting can lead to premature deletion of attachments from the DAOS repository during prune operations. DAOS resync scans all .NSF files on the Domino server and counts the number of references to each .NLO file in the DAOS repository.  If any of the following NOTES.INI parameters are enabled, dbdirman can provide an incomplete list of .NSF files to the resync process.  If an .NSF file containing DAOS references is not scanned, the reference count for the associated .NLO files will be too low, or zero.  A subsequent prune operation will delete these .N

Disable ’Set default Letterhead’, but previous letterhead is still used

  • 28 Jun, 2011

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

Domino 10 Beta 2 on Docker

Domino 10 beta 2 started last week. I download the files and wish to run it on docker. I follow Tim Clark's blog series(https://tc-soft.com/blog/docker-pt1) about Domino 9.0.1 on Docker. I change a few lines on dockerfile (just change the installation file name). Another difference was the line to start the container.

Domino 8.5 DAOS

  • 04 Mar, 2009

Domino Attachment Object Service (DAOS) é uma nova funcionalidade do Domino.
Basicamente ela remove os anexos de uma aplicação Notes e os coloca no filesystem. Com isto ganhamos em I/O e o tamanho dos bancos de dados realmente caem muito. Sem o DAOS um anexo de 1 MB se enviado para 10 usuários se transforma em 10MB de armazenamento no servidor, com o DAOS somente 1MB e nos bancos de dados fica somente um "ponteiro" para o arquivo no DAOS.
Já consegui reduzir um banco de dados Notes de 1.3 GB para 228 MB usando o DAOS.
A IBM disponibilizou também uma ferramenta para estimar como o DAOS pode economizar espaço nos servidores  Domino DAOS Estimator

Domino 8.5 e SUSE SLES 10 SP2

Neste fim de semana fizemos um upagrade de um Domino 7.0.2 para a versão 8.5. O Linux instalado antes era o SUSE SLES 9 SP3.
O Domino 8.5 não suporta o SUSE 9 então solicitamos o upgrade para versão SUSE SLES 10 SP1, pois já existem 03 servidores em produção com este Linux.
O upgrade do Linux foi realizado, mas a versão instalada foi o SUSE SLES 10 SP2. Aparentemente tudo ok pois os requesitos de sistema(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27013072Linux32bit) não informam nada sobre SP1 ou SP2 para o SUSE.

Domino console em Windows 2003

Administrar servidores remotamente é o cotidiano de todos os administradores que eu conheço. Uma configuração no RDC (Remote Desktop Client) que eu utilizei por muito tempo me permitia "ver" a console do Domino quando este está em servidores Windows iniciado como serviço. Fiz upgrade do meu Windows XP para SP3 e este recurso parou de funcionar.
A chave que eu utilizava antes era /console agora tem de ser /admin. Veja o TN1209819(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=463&context=SSKTMJ&dcÛ520&dcÛ560&uid=swg21209819&loc=enUS&cs=UTF-8&lang=en&rss=ct463lotus) da IBM que explica isto.

Domino e DNS MX Bug

Semana passada um cliente reportou um problema curioso: Os usuários não conseguiam enviar email para um determinado domínio.
O servidor Domino estava informando que não conseguia se conectar a um servidor e realizando testes realmente não conseguiamos acesso a esta máquina. Ligamos para o administrador do servidor dominio.com e ele informou que havia trocado o mx do seu domínio devido a um problema mas que já havia retornado ao ip original. Só que o domino mantinha a tentativa de mandar para o ip antigo.
Pesquisando um pouco vimos que se reiniciar-mos o router o problema é resolvido, na verdade resolve mandar os correios pois o domino tem um bug que guarda em cache um endere

Hoje novamente o desafio é descobrir porquê dois servidores Domino 8.5 estão corrompendo bancos de dados. Os servidores estão em cluster e aleatóriamente estão corrompendo bancos de dados. Abrimos um suporte na IBM para ajudar a investigar o caso. Algumas hipóteses foram levantadas pelo suporte e uma delas foi sobre fragmentação de disco.
Em servidores Windows isto sempre foi problema devido ao sistema de arquivos NSF e uma desfragmentação de vez em quando é sempre boa.

I'm working on projects that involve many technologies and frameworks. Particularly in one of our projects the IceGuard(http://www.iceguard.com.br) many things have been used such as Flutter for mobile application, Node-Red for  integrations,  IBM Cloud and IBM Watson IoT services. We have reached a point where an asset management application such as sensors and gateways is required. The application has the requirements: 1 - Run OffLine and Web 2 - Data replication 3 - Authentication and  Data security 4 - Integration with other applications. 5 - Implement a simple flow of approval.

High CPU usage when Disk Queue is very high. (Domino + Windows)

  • 15 Jul, 2015

A customer has one Domino cluster with 2 members on a virtualized environment (VMWare). it is not a big environment (1600 users) but after 3 months working well some thing happened and the system does not work well. During a period of 4 hours (9 am to 13 pm) the CPU of one cluster member goes to 100% and the cluster does not send users to the another member. I check everything possible (this server has 800 GB of mailboxes) and run some administrative commands.  I raise a PMR and sent NSD's. IBM told me  that the windows kernel is consuming a lot of CPU and Domino was not the cause, but this machine only run Domino. We talk a lot about the problem an after some verification at the windows

How to avoid performance issues related to mass email delivery in Lotus Domino

From TN 1271709
Do not send mass mail from a production mail server.
Avoid sending mass email. If mass email must be sent, do not send those mass mail messages from a production mail server but an administration server or another dedicated Domino server which is not directly servicing end users.  Distributing this workload will prevent end users from experiencing performance issues related to address expansion during phase one of the message delivery process. This dedicated Domino server should be configured to hold messages for transfer outside of peak system usage. Reduce the number of threads for transfer and delivery in the Domino router

How to programmatically delete a particular email in all mail files

  • 09 Apr, 2016

This can be done using an agent that is run by an ID that has access and delete rights to all the mail files on the server. The email will have the same Universal ID(UNID) in all of the mail files. This will allow you to get a handle on that particular email. The example code below gets a handle to the People view of the server's name and address book. From the person document, it obtains the mail file for the user and then opens the mail file, locates the email and removes it. The first step is to locate the UNID.

How to stop Daos when it is stuck on a very large attachment

Problem If serveral very large attachments are sent to DAOS enabled databases the daosfication process can use so much server resources as to be a risk to server function.  The only way to stop it is to restart the server.
Content
Since the Daos process is event driven stopping the event in process will be sufficent, it will not attempt to daosify the attachment again.  However there is no task that can be brought down to stop DAOS, the server must be brought down.  If the server is clustered this can be done one c

On April IBM stop the updates for IBM Knowledge Base  (lotuskb.nsf). I use this database on a daily basis. But now the beloved database was not updated anymore. The new way to work is Google or IBM Support Portal
I like  the database.
I need offline access, some customers doesn't allow aliens laptops on their networks. I build a java project to update the legacy lotuskb.nsf. 1 - I get the URLs of the support feeds
2 - Read the feeds and extract the URL's to technotes
3 - Parse the html of the technotes and store them into the lotuskb.nsf. I use several packages like JSOUP and JERICHO to parse and render the html. It is not perfect but i got the documents again on the lotu

IBM Domino Web Server Cross-site Scripting Vulnerability

  • 18 Jun, 2015

IBM Domino Web server configured for Webmail is vulnerable to cross-site scripting, caused by improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a specially-crafted URL to execute script in a victim's Web browser within the security context of the hosting Web site, once the URL is clicked. An attacker could use this vulnerability to steal the victim's cookie-based authentication credentials. Note that Domino servers configured for iNotes are not vulnerable to this attack. See this link(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21959908&myns=swglotus&mynp=OCSSKTMJ&mync=E&cmsp=swglotus--OCSSKTMJ--E) for details and how to fix it

IBM Lotus Quickr Best Practices in Numbers

  • 18 Oct, 2012

What are IBM Lotus Quickr Limits?
Below are the known best practices for IBM Lotus Quickr server in numbers:
- Files limit size to upload?
Theoretically there is no limit but we recommend not uploading files greater than 1GB. Unlimited upload size is set by setting Maximum size of request content to 0 in the HTTP tab of the Server document. - Room limit size?
This is dictated by the maximum database size in Domino, which is 64GB. However, we don't recommend DBS greater than 15 GB as this is when corruption or other errors begin to occur. - Folder limit size?
Again, this must remain with the 64 GB limit of the database. - How many level of sub-folder can we use?

An ID vault provides several layers of security. - Protection against the use of an unauthorized vault A user ID can be uploaded to a vault only if a parent certifier of the user ID has issued a Vault Trust Certificate to the vault. This prevents a rogue administrator from creating an unauthorized vault and uploading ID files into it. - Protection against unauthorized downloads of IDs ID downloads from a vault are password-protected. If ten incorrect consecutive passwords are specified during one day in an attempt to download an ID file from a vault to a client, downloads are disabled for that ID for the day.

Limits of RunOnServer agent feature

  • 27 Aug, 2012

From LotusKB. The LotusScript RunOnServer method allows an agent called from a Notes client to run on the Domino server rather than on the client. Running on the client is the default behavior when running an agent from the Notes client. Running on the client results in isolation of the agent. As each client has its own memory, the agent run by one user does not interact with the memory of any other user. If an agent were scheduled rather than invoked by the client, each agent run would have its own memory environment in the AMGR task running on Domino. To run concurrently scheduled agents requires running multiple AMgr tasks, each with its own memory. The RunOnServer method forces the age

Lotus Notes Traveler customers are NOT recommended to upgrade to Domino 8.5.2.3

  • 01 Aug, 2011

Lotus Notes Traveler customers are NOT recommended to upgrade to Domino 8.5.2.3 and later releases until they have applied APAR LO62635 to the Traveler server. Domino server 8.5.2.3 (Fix Pack 3) changed one of the API calls that Lotus Traveler server uses.  Running Domino 8.5.2.3 and Lotus Traveler 8.5.2.x without LO62635 can cause a server crash scenario.  Once LO62635 is installed on the server, the Domino server can be at any 8.5.2.\  level. WORKAROUND: Until the Traveler APAR LO62635 fix is available, Administrators may uninstall Domino Server Fix Pack 3 and install Fix Pack 2 instead. The information above is from TN 1507380

Managing corruption recovery during the business day

  • 10 May, 2011

FromTN 1193738 To avoid possible server hangs or crashes, it is recommended that Fixup be performed outside business hours to avoid impacting users. However, if Fixup must be run during business hours, which is often the case, follow the steps below to minimize the impact: 1.  Load the Fixup database.nsf -C -O against the file. \ -C will only verify the integrity of the database and report errors to the log (database is not modified). \ -O runs on an open database otherwise open databases will be skipped. Note:
If you run Fixup on open databases, Fixup takes the databases offline to perform the fixup.
This is the default if you run Fixup and specify a database name. Without thi

Migrating messages from Domino to Google using IMAP

  • 20 Feb, 2022

It's only for messages. No calendar migration Imapsync command is a tool allowing incremental and recursive imap transfers from one mailbox to another. If you don't understand the previous sentence, it's normal, it's pedantic computer-oriented jargon. All folders are transferred, recursively, meaning the whole folder hierarchy is taken, all messages in them, and all message flags (\Seen\Answered \Flagged etc.) are synced too. Imapsync reduces the amount of data transferred by not transferring a given message if it already resides on the destination side. Messages that are on the destination side but not on the source side stay as they are. Get the tool here  https://github.com/imapsyn

Native failover support for scheduled agents in Domino

  • 24 Nov, 2011

There is no native failover support for scheduled agents in Domino. I know this issue i think since i start to work as a Domino Administrator 12 years ago. From TN 109833034 This issue has been reported to Lotus Quality Engineering in the form of an enhancement request; however, there are currently no plans to address it. Basically, scheduled agents run only on the server on which they are scheduled to run.  If Server A is clustered with Server B and Server A goes down, any scheduled agents on Server A are not going to run on Server B, even though they are clustered. One way around this is to code the agents so that they poll the other server for availability.  If the server is available

Review process to save disk space on Domino

  • 27 Jun, 2011

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 : !Image:Review process to save disk space on Domino(http://platao.plansis.com.br/blogkenio.nsf/dx/27062011141306KCAN7S.htm/

Roteamento SMTP - Domino &amp; Outros

Route messages to Smart Host

  • 01 Dec, 2015

A smart host is a directory server to which SMTP-routed messages are sent when the message recipient cannot be found in the IBM® Lotus® Domino® Directory or other secondary directories configured on the server. Typically, a smart host is used in organizations that employ multiple mail systems within a single Internet domain. Users on these systems may not be in the Domino Directory. For example, if some users are on a UNIX® sendmail system but their inbound messages are routed through the Domino mail system, you can set up a smart host to ensure proper address resolution. Last week i need to setup a kind of odd routing.  I need to relay messages sent to Domino users to an Smart Host.  This

Acesso ao correio particular usando o Notes não é muito comum mas pode ser necessário. A configuração é simples, basta criar uma conta POP3 e SMTP e pronto. Mas e se você desejar que o correio recebido do seu email particular seja colocado em uma pasta? Regras?
Regras não funcionam em replicas locais. A solução encontrada foi até simples: Faça um encaminhamento da mensagem no seu email particular para seu endereço no Domino e crie uma regra para mover as mensagens do email particular para a pasta desejada Access to private mail using Notes is not very common but may be necessary. Setup is simple, just create a POP3 and SMTP and ready. But what if you want the incoming mail

Rules tab does not display on Server Configuration document

When using the Domino Administrator client, the Rules tab does not display when you select Messaging Settings on the Configuration tab.  You may also notice that after a Configuration document is edited from the Domino Administrator client, the Rules tab no longer appears when the document is viewed from the Notes client. Cause The issue occurs because the " ActForm" field is present in the configuration document. Resolution To resolve the issue, delete the ActForm field from the Configuration document. There are two approaches to accomplish this: Approach 1: Create a Formula agent, designed to act on selected documents, to delete the field ActForm: Steps to create the agent: 1. Sta

Scheduled agent stops executing if Compact is already running on the database

  • 17 Sep, 2012

You have a scheduled agent that runs at a set frequency (such as 30 minutes). This schedule agent runs correctly most of the time. If, however, the agent attempts to execute (per its schedule) while Compact is running on the same database, the agent stops running. The agent is also removed from the scheduled queue. (The scheduled agent queue is an internal queue that keeps track of which agents need to run.) The agent is not returned to the queue until Agent Manager refreshes the Cache. By default, the Cache is refreshed at 12 a.m. Starting with Domino 8.5.2 Fix Pack 3 and 8.5.3, you can use the following parameter to force agent retry despite the Compact: DEBUG\AMGR\ENABLE\RETRY\ON\COMPAC

Securing SMTP sessions using the STARTTLS extension

  • 15 May, 2020

Just setup this on a customer today. Befor this setup you need to install a certificate on your server. SMTP sessions conducted over a standard TCP/IP channel are vulnerable to eavesdropping because the unencoded transmission can be easily intercepted. To protect SMTP communications, servers can use transport-layer security (TLS), more commonly known as SSL encryption, to provide privacy and authentication. Some servers support SSL for SMTP communications by sending and receiving SMTP traffic through the SSL port (port 465 by default) only. However, because this requires that both the sending and receiving servers support SMTP over SSL, this solution isn't always practical. To provide SSL

You can have Domino add a phrase to the sender's address on outbound SMTP mail and specify the name component to use as the address phrase. By default, addresses do not include phrases. If you choose not to support phrase-style addresses, you can specify that Domino remove any user-added phrases in the recipient fields of outbound messages. You configure this address format using the "RFC822 phrase handling" field in the Configuration Settings document, under the MIME - Advanced - Advanced Outbound Message Options tab.

Templates not compacting if wildcards are used in command

  • 23 Feb, 2011

You can use a compact command successfully with wildcards or without specifying databases on all databases in the Data folder and sub-folders but you can't do this for templates. This prevents templates being compacted every time you issue a generic compact command. You can also run a batch command if multiple templates must be compacted. Another workaround is to create a notepad document which lists all of the templates listed one template name per line as shown below: !Image:Templates not compacting if wildcards are used in command(http://platao.plansis.com.br/blogkenio.nsf/dx/templatescompact.htm/content/M2?OpenElement) This notepad document would need to be saved as file type ' All Fi

  • 19 Oct, 2011

I search for information about upgrading ODS to a new version to support a Domino migration  and justify the upgrade of the ODS. The summary is bellow. On-Disk Structure (ODS) Every major release of Notes/Domino (e.g., versions 2, 3, 4, 5, 6/7 ,8 and 8.5 ) has included significant architectural changes to the database structure, also known as the On-Disk Structure (ODS). These architectural changes enables the Notes and Domino development team to improve performance and scalability in each release. Upgrading the databases provides a lot of benefits, with very low risk, so this has always been an important early step in any Notes and Domino upgrade plan. The ODS version for each major rel

Windows Disk Fragmentation

  • 17 Feb, 2010

Last Saturday i scheduled an maintenance for one of the our Domino Server. The server performance was not great and the problem was related to I/O.
Using Defraggler the analysis show us that the disk was 98% fragmented. After 3 hours, with Domino out of service, the disk was defragmented and the analysis show us 1% fragmented.
So i see a lot of databases with ODS 43, very old, and then i start a compact -c for all databases.
I ran Defraggler again and the analysis show than 58% of fragmentation, compact -c fragments databases. Today at OpenNtf there is an article about DominoDefrag, the solution to my problem, i don't have the maintenance  window.
DominoDefrag can defrag t d

Wokspace x Desktop policy

  • 22 Sep, 2009

Um problema comum é como adicionar aplciações ao workspace de uma instalação nova do Notes. Via política conseguimos adicionar bookmarks (8.x).
A alternativa que imaginei foi enviar ao usuário um correio com um botão com um código. É simples e funciona. @Command( \AddDatabase\ ; server : database ; bookmark ) Parameters:
\ server: The name of the server where the database is.
\ database: The path and file name of the database.
\ bookmark (this parameter is new with Release 5):
Text ("0" or "1"). Optional. Specify "1" to bring up the Add Bookmark dialog box where you can select or create a folder in which the bookmark should be placed. If you specify "0" or omit

Writing status bar history to a log file

  • 05 May, 2016

You can use the NOTES.INI setting LOGSTATUSBAR=1 to enable logging of status bar messages to the local log file, LOG.NSF. To view the logged messages, open the file, LOG.NSF, and then click the Miscellaneous Events view. Status bar messages are appended with "Status Msg." To write the status bar messages to an external file, use the NOTES.INI setting Debug\Outfile= with the NOTES.INI setting LOGSTATUSBAR=1. For example: LOGSTATUSBAR=1 DebugOutfile=c:\temp\StatusBarLogging.txt

You need to start using REST

  • 20 Dec, 2011

With the launch of Domino Upgrade Pack 1(http://www-01.ibm.com/software/lotus/notesanddomino/nd85-UpgradePack853-1.html) Domino Designers need to know how to use REST and JSON. I found a good tutorial(http://rest.elkstein.org/2008/02/what-is-rest.html) about REST. It is a starting point.
