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. To download the ID that day, the password must be reset on it. For additional protection, administrators can require authorization for all ID downloads.
- Protection against unauthorized password resets A person requires a Password Reset Certicate issued by a parent certifier of a user ID to reset the password on the ID through the Domino Administratator. A custom password reset application, for example, one that enables users to reset their own passwords, requires a Password Reset Certificate issued to the identity under which the application runs and to each server on which it is deployed.
- Protection against unauthorized access to the vault contents The Notes ID vault server’s ID file is integral to the protection of the vault’s contents. It is extremely important to protect the vault server’s ID file from unauthorized access.
- Protection against unauthorized access to data transmitted over the network All ID vault transactions between clients and servers are encrypted.

When it comes to configuring the Domino Attachment and Object Service (DAOS), you may be asking yourself – and us in turn – what’s the right way to set it up? For example, is there an optimum “Minimum Sizeâ€� setting? Should the repository go under the data directory or on its own drive? What’s the best “Deferred Deletion Intervalâ€� in relation to my backup and restore schedule? This guide, and the documents it references, attempts to answer these questions of individual, site-specific configuration in general terms with guidelines for adapting and modifying them based on measurements made against your particular environment.

How to Enable Windows 7 GodMode
I found this tip at www.sitepoint.com
Here’s a neat Windows 7 trick that’s been doing the rounds on the Internet. It enables “GodMode,� a term devised by the Microsoft development team, which provides a single place to access all Windows settings without needing to browse options and folders in the Control Panel.
To use it:
1. Create a new folder.
2. Rename the folder to
GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
(note that you can change the “GodMode� text, but the following period and code number are essential).
3. The folder icon will change — double click it to show the GodMode window:

Já peguei o arquivo e o curso é introdutório mesmo, para iniciantes, mas não deixa de ser bom.

What are the Lotus Notes/Lotus Domino naming conventions and standards?
|
Name
|
Maximum length
|
Valid character
|
| Organization Certifier Name | 3 to 64 characters (recommended limit is 32 characters if possible) | A – Z, 0 – 9, -. _ ‘ (dash, period, space, underscore, and apostrophe)
See Note below. |
| Organization Unit Certifier Name | 64 characters | A – Z, 0 – 9, -. _ ‘ (dash, period, space, underscore, and apostrophe)
See Note below. |
| Country Code | 0 or 2 characters | A – Z |
| Password: Organization ————-> OU ————————–> Server/User ————–> | 32 characters at least 12 (recommended) to 32 63 characters | A – Z, 0 – 9, & -. _ ‘ (ampersand, dash, period, space, underscore, and apostrophe) |
| Server Name | 59 characters | A – Z, 0 – 9, & – ‘ (ampersand, dash, space, and apostrophe)
Using a space is not recommended but if you use one, enter the Server Name in quotes (“”) when you enter a command set at the server console. Do not use periods (.) or underscores (_) in Domino Server names because of the current BIND server code 8.1.2. DNS standards demoted underscores in host names.* *See Note below. |
| Notes Network Name | 31 characters
Refer to Document #1096391 for additional information. | A – Z, 0 – 9, -, _ (a space is also a valid character) |
| Notes Port Name | 31 characters | A – Z, 0 – 9, -, _ |
| User First Name + User Last Name | Must not be greater than 80 characters | A – Z, 0 – 9, & -. _ ‘ (ampersand, dash, period, space, underscore, and apostrophe) |
| User Middle Initial | 2 characters | A – Z, 0 – 9, & -. _ ‘ (ampersand, dash, period, space, underscore, and apostrophe) |
| Notes Domain Name | 31 characters (minimum of 3) | A – Z, 0 – 9, & – _ ‘ (ampersand, dash, space, underscore, and apostrophe)
Do not use periods (.) in a domain name as they are reserved characters. |
| Server Title | Colon “:”, Cannot be used in a server title. |
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 databases online, and it works great !
No último sábado programamos uma manutenção em um de nossos servidores devido a problemas de performance, claramente I/O.
O diagnóstico preliminar foi o disco muito fragmentado. Inciamos a desfragmentação parando o Domino e usando o programa Defraggler.
O disco estava 98% fragmentado. Após 3 horas de operação o disco ficou com 1% fragmentado, nada mal.
Porém observei que alguns bancos de dados estavam com o ODS na versão 43, resolvi então compactar todas as bases para que ficassem com o ODS 48 (R8).
O comando para converter o ODS é compact -c.
Até aqui tudo normal e funcionando. Só que li um artigo em alguns blogs informando que o compact -c desfragmenta o disco.
Olhei novamente o disco e estava fragmentado novamente 59%. Desta vez o problema era pior pois não tinha mais janela para manutenção.
Encontrei então o projeto DominoDefrag no OpenNtf que resolveu o problema desfragmentando o disco com o Domino ativo.
Look at the figures bellow, DominoDefrag works !
Vejam como realmente o DominoDefrag funciona !

Ontem iniciamos a instalação de um ambiente Lotus Domino 64bits utilizando Windows 2008 64bits. A instalação é tranquila e não foge do normal.
A versão que estamos utilizando é 8.5.1 FP1 pois são servidores novos e fazem parte de um projeto de migração Domino 7 -> 8.5.1.
Ontem foi publicado um TN sobre crashes que acontecem no HTPP justamente com este ambiente.
Yesterday i started a setup of an environment Lotus Domino 64bits over Windows 2008 64bits.
The setup is quiet and not run away from normal Domino setup
IBM published a TN about crashes just with this environment. A hotfix is needed
If you install the traveler 8.5.1.1 you can accept meetings on iPhone
The fix cam be download using this link
New function for Apple Devices (Optional)
The functions listed here were added in Lotus Notes Traveler 8.5.1.1 and are not enabled by default. The Lotus Notes Traveler server administrator must explicitly enable these functions for them to become active. Follow the procedures outlined below to enable.
- Meeting attendee invitation actions for Apple devices.
When this feature is enabled, attendees to meetings will now receive meeting notices on their Apple device and the mobile user will be able to accept, tentatively accept, or decline the meeting invitation. Using the Settings application on the Apple device, the user can enable or disable meeting notice alerts by selecting the Mail, Contacts, Calendars settings and then changing New Invitation Alerts to On or Off.
