The Repair Calendar feature fixes issues with repeating calendar entries. This functionality only works if the user is running an 8.5 Notes client and the user’s mail database is based on the mail85.ntf template from Notes 8.5.

What is the Repair Calendar feature?

The Repair Calendar feature has been provided to help customers fix issues they encounter with repeating calendar entries such as meetings.

Specifically, this feature in Notes 8.5 fixes issues where duplicate repeating calendar entries exist in the mail file.

Please note that this functionality works only if the user is running an 8.5 Notes client AND the user’s mail database is based on the mail85.ntf template from Notes 8.5.

The paper describes the steps and best practices for migrating an existing standalone WebSphere Portal 6.0 environment to a standalone WebSphere Portal V7 and should be followed by the majority of customers, even those in a Web Content Management environment.

The foundation for this document is the initial release of the V7 Information Center with additional information based on the outcome and experiences of our pre-release testing. With this document, we provide a more comprehensive guide and highlight some of the common pitfalls and mistakes when migrating.

Found it today on TN 1487071 but IBM doen´t tell the size of the very large attachment. I think to avoid this problem on the mail servers is to setup the max message size.

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 cluster mate at a time while user’s fail over.  While the server is down look in the DAOS directory for large attachments created at the time the issue began.  These can be removed.

Users who have the attachment and attempt to open it will produce messages on the console

The database Pathname.nsf attempted to access a missing file: Pathname.nlo: File does not exist

After the attachment has been removed from all servers the link can be removed from the mailfiles with the command fixup Path/name.nsf -J -D can remove the now bad links.

The DAOS catalog will need to be resynchronized after this, it is best to do so when the server  is less busy/

Portal search engine fails to crawl same content that may reside in different site areas of the same library

By default the crawler considers the content to be same and will only crawl the content item once even if it resides under different site areas. To resolve this issue simply add search service property CHECK_DUPLICATES = false and create new search collection
