In the case of a Traveler server being hosted on a VM, there are instances where performance problems or symptoms may arise, but the cause may be due to the VM environment/configuration. How can the VM environment be checked to confirm this?

Create a simple agent in the mail.box to reset the RoutingState field to “” (null) for selected messages. When the RoutingState field is reset, the router will attempt to dispatch the messages.
This table describes additional Tell commands you can use with Agent Manager.
| Command | Result |
| Tell Amgr Cancel | Cancels the scheduled agent that is currently running.
Note Tell Amgr Cancel does not cancel agents executed by other processes, such as HTTP or router; however, you can use the remote debugger to cancel agents executed by any process. If a third-party application hangs and does not return control back to IBM® Lotus® Notes®, the agent cannot be canceled. Specify the agent to be canceled by entering these arguments: “db name” ‘agent name’ Example: Tell Amgr Cancel “DatabaseName.nsf” ‘AgentName’ Note You can use the Tell Amgr Schedule command to determine which agents can be canceled. |
| Tell Amgr Debug | Displays either the current debug settings for the Agent Manager or lets you set new ones. When using this command to set debug values, you can use the same flags used by the Debug_AMgr command in the NOTES.INI file. These settings take effect immediately; you do not need to restart the Agent Manager or the server.
The following are Tell Amgr Debug parameters:
|
| Tell Amgr Run | Runs the agents that you designate with these arguments:”db name” ‘agent name’
Example: Tell Amgr Run “DatabaseName.nsf” ‘AgentName’ |
| Tell Amgr Pause | Pauses scheduling of agents |
| Tell Amgr Quit | Stops the Agent Manager on a server. |
| Tell Amgr Resume | Resumes scheduling of agents. |
| Tell Amgr Schedule | Shows the schedule for all agents scheduled to run for the current day. In addition, the command shows the agent trigger type, the time the agent is scheduled to run, the name of the agent, and the name of the database on which the database runs. Checking the Agent Manager schedule lets you see if an agent is waiting in one of the Agent Manager queues.
Agent Manager queues: E – Agents eligible to run S – Agents scheduled to run V – Event-triggered agents waiting for their events to occur Trigger types: S – Agent is scheduled to run M – Agent is a new mail-triggered agent U – Agent is a new/updated document-triggered agent |
| Tell Amgr Status | This command shows a snapshot of the Agent Manager queues and displays the Agent Manager settings in the Server document. |
We can hide the option “Change Internet Password” only for certain users by applying a policy.
Steps need to be performed are:
1) In Domino Administrator->goto->People &groups->Settings->Add
setting->Security setting
2) Give name to this setting
3) In Password Management tab->Password Management Basics-> “Allow users
to change Internet password over HTTP” ->Select “NO”.
4) Save and close.
5) Goto->Policies->Add Policy->Explicit policy
6) In Setting type->Security->Select the above created security setting.
7) Under Policy Assignment tab->Select the users from Domino directory
for whom you would like to hide the “Change Password” option.
8) Save and close.
9) On server console issue following command:
tell adminp process all
Once the policy gets applied, users will see the screen as below, for whom the option is hidden:
And users for whom the option is not hidden will see the screens as below:

To install WebSphere Portal v8 silently, you are required to provide an xml response file. This can be obtained by using the IBM Installation Manager GUI to record a response file. However if you do not have a GUI environment, this is not a valid option for you and you must manually edit a response file provided on the WebSphere Portal v8 Setup media. Manually editing this xml file can be tedious anrd confusing.
WebSphere Portal V8 projects are starting. And good tips are welcome like this
The default permissions for the IBM Sametime database STLOG.NSF allows anonymous / unauthenticated users to access potentially sensitive information.
Vulnerability Type: Information disclosure
The information bellow is from TN 1613895
| CVE ID: CVE-2012-3331 DESCRIPTION: By default, anonymous / unauthenticated users can access the Sametime Log database (STLOG.NSF). This database provides a variety of potentially sensitive information including canonical usernames, and client IP addresses. For example, from the page http://1.2.3.4/stlog.nsf, select the link Community Server Login and Logout Events by User. Steps to Reproduce Vulnerability: http://1.2.3.4/stlog.nsf Note that access to the server where the Sametime servers are running should be possible only from within the organization. In addition these servers should not be made HTTP accessible to any machine in the organization. |
