How to remove a worker node from Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4 UPI?

28 Jan, 2025

When you delete a node using the CLI, the node object is deleted in Kubernetes, but the pods that exist on the node are not deleted. Any bare pods not backed by a replication controller become inaccessible to OpenShift Container Platform. Pods backed by replication controllers are rescheduled to other available nodes. You must delete local manifest pods. - To delete the node from the UPI installation, the node must be firstly drained and then marked unschedulable prior to deleting(https://access.redhat.com/bounce/?externalURL=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.openshift.com%2Fcontainer-platform%2Flatest%2Fnodes%2Fnodes%2Fnodes-nodes-working.html) it: $ oc adm cordon $ oc adm drain --force --delete-loca

rsync is faster than scp to copy files between machines

31 Dec, 2024

rsync is generally faster than scp for copying files, especially when transferring a large amount of data or syncing directories. Here's why: 1. Incremental Transfers - rsync: Only transfers the parts of files that have changed, rather than the entire file. This makes subsequent transfers much faster. - scp: Always transfers the entire file, even if only a small part of it has changed. 2. Compression - rsync: Supports compression during the transfer (using the -z option), which reduces the amount of data sent over the network. - scp: Also supports compression (using the -C option), but it doesn't have the same efficiency in skipping unchanged data. 3. Resume Support - rsync: Can

CPU Throttling in Kubernetes

28 Nov, 2024

In the context of a Kubernetes cluster, CPU throttling still refers to the process of limiting the amount of CPU time a container or pod can use, but it's slightly different than throttling within an individual CPU or device, as Kubernetes manages resources at the container level. Here’s a breakdown of how CPU throttling works in a Kubernetes environment: 1. CPU Resources in Kubernetes Kubernetes allows you to specify how much CPU a container can request and how much it is allowed to consume. This is done through resource requests and limits: - CPU Request: The minimum CPU resource that the container is guaranteed to have. - CPU Limit: The maximum CPU resource the container can use. Ku

Firewall changes for container image pulls

05 May, 2023

Since June 2022 the Red Hat OpenShift operator index images (redhat/redhat/operator-index) have been served from registry.redhat.io using Quay.io as the backend. OpenShift itself already needs access to the Quay.io registry and CDN hosts as explained in its installation instructions, and so this change required no action from customers at that time. We are extending this to all Red Hat container images. This allows customers to benefit from the high availability of the Quay.io registry while simplifying the way Red Hat delivers container images and paving the way for future enhancements.

OpenShift User is not able to login again after deletion using web console

13 Jan, 2023

If a user has been deleted from the OpenShift web console, they will no longer be able to login. The user's account and associated resources will also be deleted. If the user needs access again, they will have to be re-created in the console. To recreate the user you can use the command : oc create user Use the oc create useridentitymapping command to map the identity to the user. Use the command oc get identities to lis all identities you have configured, an then map the user.
For example:
oc create useridentitymapping homeldap:Y249a2VuaW8sb3U9 kenio

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

Podman Pods are very similar to Kubernetes pods in a way that they can have more than one container. Every Podman pod contains one infra container by default. This container is responsible for associating the names space with the pod and allowing podman to connect the containers to another pod. Create a Pod using Podman The first step is to create a Pod using podman: sudo podman pod create –name For our example we will create a pod with the name wp-pod sudo podman pod create -p 8080:80 --name wp-pod After creating the Pod you can see the infra container using the command: sudo podman pod ps -a --pod Note that host port 8080 has been redirected to port 80 of the pod.

Linux Containers have emerged as a key open source application packaging and delivery technology, combining lightweight application isolation with the flexibility of image-based deployment methods. Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) base images are meant to form the foundation for the container images you build.

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

What is hybrid cloud?

At a high-level, a hybrid cloud is a mixture of private and a public cloud environments that work in tandem to run your workloads and apps. That definition sounds straight-forward, but when you dive in and start to work, you can find hybrid cloud architectures difficult to manage without the right tools. You can watch a video of a real-world example to clearly understand what works well on a public cloud environment and what is best in a private environment.

mkcert: valid HTTPS certificates for localhost

14 Jan, 2019

I found it today when googling for some solution for my mac and it works! The web is moving to HTTPS, preventing network attackers from observing or injecting page contents. But HTTPS needs TLS certificates, and while deployment is increasingly a solved issue thanks to the ACME protocol and Let's Encrypt, development still mostly ends up happening over HTTP because no one can get an universally valid certificate for localhost(https://letsencrypt.org/docs/certificates-for-localhost/). This is a problem because more and more browser features are being made available only to secure origins, and testing with HTTP hides any mixed content issues that can break a production HTTPS website.

15 Sep, 2017

An issue was introduced in Domino 9.0.1 FP9 that could result in SMTP mail headers with random characters inserted into From, Sendto, and Copyto fields. This could then result in non-delivery of mail to/from Internet email addresses when using the Domino notes.ini parameter SMTPVerifyAuthenticatedSender =1. Symptoms of the issue include receiving messages containing garbled sender names. Opening the message and replying results in a number of embedded garbled characters in the header. You can observe this by viewing the page source or by simply examining the content when opening an email. Another method is to capture the SMTP outbound message and examine the header.

IBM Traveler 9.0.1.18 enabled by default a feature that allows Traveler to "Run as a User" instead of as a server. This feature resolves several long standing issues with accessing the user's data as the server ID. The last point above may cause sync issues for mobile users. If the access controls are inadvertently set to values that restrict individual users, but do not restrict the Traveler server, then users that could sync when running as the Traveler server ID might not be able to sync when running as their user ID. Note that the Traveler administrator can disable the Run as User feature by setting the notes.ini value NTS\USER\SESSION=false on all Traveler servers and restarting the s

WebSphere Portal V8.5 and Oracle Data Guard

From IBM L3 support: "WebSphere Portal does not explicitly claim support for Oracle Data Guard. It is our understanding that Oracle Data Guard is an extension of the Oracle Database product. We do support the Oracle Database as isted in our "Supported software" documentation. Unless Oracle Data Guard limits functionality or impacts the behavior of the Oracle Database product in an intransparent manner or requires changes to the Portal database object definitions, we do not see a reason why WebSphere Portal would not work in that setup. In other words: If the database system, that is used by the customer, behaves like a regular Oracle Database, it should work. In case an issue is observed, w

Watson Conversation - Gathering information with slots

23 Jun, 2017

Add slots to a dialog node to gather multiple pieces of information from a user within that node. Slots collect information at the users' pace. Details they provide upfront are saved, and the bot asks only for the details they do not. You can think of slots as the chat bot version of a web form in which users must fill out required fields before they can submit the form. Similarly, slots prevent the flow of conversation from moving on to a new subject until the required values are provided.

"Domino applications that are created from system templates that make use of Java applets, such as the Domino Directory (names.nsf), Document Library, Domino Web Server Configuration database and Widget Catalog database, will be impacted by the removal of NPAPI functionality. The Teamroom and Discussion databases created from older (pre-8.5.3) templates will be impacted as well. Additionally, custom Notes applications that are using Java applets also may not work correctly in web browsers due to these changes. It is recommended that you either (1) redesign the portions of the applications that use Java applets to use HTML, or (2) redesign the entire application to leverage XPages design elem

IBM WebSphere Portal 8.5 CF12 removes the Apache Axis library from the classpath

08 Aug, 2016

Due to security vulnerabilities in the Apache Axis V1.x libraries, IBM is removing the Axis JAR file from IBM WebSphere Portal 8.5 effective with Cumulative Fix 12. There is no product code that uses this library, but it has been on the classpath since the initial 8.5.0.0 release. The specific JAR to be removed is "axis.jar." The only exposure here is the chance that custom code, in either a custom theme or a custom portlet, would be using classes from this library. If there is no custom code in your Portal installation that is using these classes, then you will have no problems. If there is custom code in your Portal installation that is using these classes, then you will see ClassNotFound

Visitors would still be able to enable Flash content on a site-by-site basis, but they would have to specifically choose to do so. Chrome would display a prompt offering to enable Flash; if chosen, Chrome would remember to run Flash on that site for all future visits.

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.

Search for big files or what folder is bigger on linux is hard using du. Googling i found a nice toll and what i found was a big surprise.

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

Setup RFC 822 for outbound SMTP on Domino.

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.

The process is not complicated. The key is how to mark or select external users on your ldap. The options are; 1 - Map standard LDAP attribute for external users

Increase the productivity of Notes users with good Spam protection

19 Dec, 2014

Email productivity is a hot topic and several companies will launch new products including IBM with IBM Verse. But do not forget: Good spam protection is a important piece. Several months ago, in our company, i setup Lotus Protector for Mail Security. Before the setup, on mornings, we have a lot of spam and undesired messages do deal with. We loose lots of hours / month just cleaning the inbox. Some important messages was deleted during this clean process. Using traveler on mornings was a nightmare. The life after Protector is very different, there is no inbox cleaning anymore and blocked messages is managed by the users using IBM Notes integrated with Protector !Image:Increase the

Update procedure for IBM Portal Server and WCM v8.0.0.1 will be changing.

20 Nov, 2014

Previously, unless you used special parameters, running IBM Installation Manager to apply a cumulative fix would both update the Portal product files and simultaneously configure the Portal profile. With the new procedure, Installation Manager will now only update the product files, and you will be required to run a pair of separate commands to configure the profile. Before now, the additional commands were required in certain situations; now they will be required in all upgrade cases.

As noted, the WCM best practices are to separate the content from the design.
For example, see the following link: http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/portalwiki.nsf/dx/How\to\separate\WCM\Content\from\Design(http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/portalwiki.nsf/dx/HowtoseparateWCMContentfromDesign) Multiple libraries does not incur additional performance penalties since references are by UUID, which is independent of library.

How to run multiple agents in the same database using a Program document

28 Feb, 2014

The Lotus Domino server is designed to execute agents that exist in the same database sequentially, with only one agent running at a time. The Agent Manager task has a built-in scheduler that, for optimization reasons, runs only scheduled agents that exist in the same database with the same agent start time as sequential. You need to run multiple agents at the same time or outside of the frequency of the Agent Manager's schedule. Create a Program document, and fill out the following fields on the form as shown: Program Name: nserver (or server if not Windows platform) Command Line: -c "tell amgr run ' database.nsf' ' agent'" Substitute your database name and agent name.

Here are some steps that will improve the battery life of your device while using Traveler. Note: The actual path to the setting may be different on your device. 1. Reduce the level of backlight on your device: Start -> Settings -> System -> Backlight 1. Configure your device to go into Sleep mode sooner: Start -> Settings -> System -> Power -> Advanced 1. Remove Traveler popup on new emails to prevent the device's screen from turning on when you receive new emails: Start -> Settings -> Sounds & Notifications -> Notifications -> Event: Lotus Traveler: New data -> Uncheck Display message (Changing sound and vibrate settings in this same location can also help)

Customers generally have the option to license client access to on-premises server products by purchasing per-user or per-device licenses. The two types currently cost the same, but per-user prices will increase 15%, while per-device license prices remain unchanged.

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?

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

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

The only way to stop it is to restart the server.

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

DAOS Backup and Restore

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 NotesÂ® 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.

How to replace a corrupt database replica in a clustered Lotus Domino environment

28 Oct, 2011

From TN 1228354. This is the last option 1. Ensure that the corrupt replica is not in use by any user or server.
On the Domino server hosting the corrupted database, enter the following command: "dbcache flush" (command may require entering two or three time to release the database). 1. Using operating system commands, delete the corrupt replica file. 1. Using the Lotus Notes client, open the "good" replica located on the other clustered server. 1. Create a new replica on the server where the "bad" replica was deleted.

The signer of the agent (the last person to save or enable the agent) must have their mail file located on the same server as where the agent will run. The server determines this by taking the name of the last person to save the agent, performing a person lookup into the Domino Directory and retrieving the Mail Server from that user's Person document.

Why is upgrading the ODS important?

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

Precompile WebSphere Portal 7

03 Mar, 2011

How To Speed Up WebSphere Portal Server 7 After the Initial Installation When any version of WebSphere Portal is first installed, there is always a significant load time for each JSP page. The poor load time is attributed to the fact that each JSP page must be compiled the first time it is accessed. To avoid the delay, execute the precompile-jsp command. 1. Open a command line and navigate to the following directory:

C:IBMWebSpherewp\profilebin 2. Execute the following command (all on one line)

WebSphere Portal can eat your disk space

24 Feb, 2011

When you have a portal for a long time (My case since 6.0.0.1) you apply a list of Fix during the life of your portal.
The directory version grows and you need to clean up to free disk space, I open a PMR and the answer was: "It is critical that the client does not remove the jar files from the
backup folder. This folder is very important if you decide to uninstall
a fix/fixpack or upgrade to a new fixpack. If you install a fix, say
PM0001 and it affects the portal.jar file. What happens is that the
original portal.jar file is stored in the backup folder and the new
portal.jar is deployed.

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

How to reduce the number of .nlo files in the DAOS directory

From TN 1449358 1. Increase the "Minimum size of object before Domino will store in DAOS" setting to the newly desired value in the server document. Note: Do not use special characters such as commas or periods when entering the minimum size. 1. Restart the Domino server to enable the new minimum size. 1.

For example, the logging events User created and User deleted are grouped together and can therefore only be switched on or off together. The log file contains one audit log message per line. All log messages start with a timestamp, followed by the optional transaction ID, the message code and the event message. Each event message contains the following: - The user ID of the user who has performed the action which triggered the audit event - Additional information about the event itself.

Web SSO unexpectedly stops working between WebSphere 6.1 and Domino based applications

07 Jul, 2010

Lotus Domino has been configured for Web Single Sign-On (SSO) with WebSphere Portal or WebSphere Application Server. SSO works correctly for several weeks, but unexpectedly Domino is no longer able to decode the LTPA token from WebSphere. To avoid problems: Disable automatic LTPA key generation on all servers of the single sign-on domain using the following steps: 1. Log on to the WebSphere Application Server administrative console.
2. Navigate to Security > Secure administration, applications, and infrastructure.
3. Click Authentication mechanisms and expiration.

Be careful with Windows 2008 64-bit, ODBC and Domino 8.5.1 32 bits

20 Jun, 2010

Last saturday i upgraded one Domino Server with a lot of enterprise applications from 7.0.3 to 8.5.1 FP3 IF1,. The server is very critical for my client business.
Everthing works fine until we start to test several applications. We detect a problem with ODBC connections to MS SQLServer databases (DB2 works fine).
Domino can't "see" the DSN's and we can see a lot of connections erros, after some hours of investigation we found the problem.
The Domino server isn't the 64 version but we are using Windows 2008 64.

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

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.

How does the notes.ini file parameter ’server_session_timeout’ affect server performance

05 Jan, 2010

The parameter, server\session\timeout, defines how the server will manage idle client sessions. Client sessions represent memory consumption on a Domino server and Domino has a finite amount of memory available for session management.

Notes does not have the feature to deny Return Receipt. If you don't like it you can disable it on the server In the Configuration Settings > MIME tab > Conversion Options tab > General tab, set "Return receipts" as Enabled or Disabled to affect how return receipts go to and from the Internet.

Cluster and Soft Deletions

10 Dec, 2009

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

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

Instalando Notes no Windows Vista

O Windows Vista Ã© realmente uma caixinha de surpresas e todo dia aparece um probleminha quando temos o Notes instalado neste sistema operacional.
Algumas coisas simples que estou fazendo para melhorar a estabilidade das estaÃ§Ãµes que usam vista:

Domino e DNS MX Bug

10 Aug, 2009

Semana passada um cliente reportou um problema curioso: Os usuÃ¡rios nÃ£o conseguiam enviar email para um determinado domÃnio.
O servidor Domino estava informando que nÃ£o conseguia se conectar a um servidor e realizando testes realmente nÃ£o conseguiamos acesso a esta mÃ¡quina. Ligamos para o administrador do servidor dominio.com e ele informou que havia trocado o mx do seu domÃnio devido a um problema mas que jÃ¡ havia retornado ao ip original. SÃ³ que o domino mantinha a tentativa de mandar para o ip antigo.
Pesquisando um pouco vimos que se reiniciar-mos o router o problema Ã© resolvido, na verdade resolve mandar os correios pois o domino tem um bug que guarda em cache um endere

Reduzindo o Log do Domino

04 Aug, 2009

O tamanho do log de um servidor pode crescer muito dependendo do processamento que a mÃ¡quina tem. Logs de roteamento, sessÃµes e outros eventos.
O log muito grande pode impactar a performance e tambÃ©m ficar difÃcil de fazer anÃ¡lise. O TN 1366598(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21366598) mostra como filtrar um tipo de evento mas podemos usar o mesmo processo para filtrar diversos eventos. Em um servidor que estou trabalhando eram gerados 4 documendos de log por segundo.
Depois de configurar alguns filtros agora temos um documento de log a cada 10s.

Domino & Linux + fragmentaÃ§Ã£o de disco

Hoje novamente o desafio Ã© descobrir porquÃª dois servidores Domino 8.5 estÃ£o corrompendo bancos de dados. Os servidores estÃ£o em cluster e aleatÃ³riamente estÃ£o corrompendo bancos de dados. Abrimos um suporte na IBM para ajudar a investigar o caso. Algumas hipÃ³teses foram levantadas pelo suporte e uma delas foi sobre fragmentaÃ§Ã£o de disco.
Em servidores Windows isto sempre foi problema devido ao sistema de arquivos NSF e uma desfragmentaÃ§Ã£o de vez em quando Ã© sempre boa.

Recentemente tenho enfrentado alguns problemas com recepÃ§Ã£o de correio de outras empresas. As causas sÃ£o diversas desde correio com endereÃ§o errado, hosts encontrados em black lists e problemas de DNS.

O servidor Domino nÃ£o possui a funcionalidade de resposta automÃ¡tica quando um usuÃ¡rio recebe correio.

Integrando Sametime e iNotes

15 May, 2009

Esta semana concluÃ o processo de integrar o Sametime 8.0.2 com o iNotes 8.5.

O TN 1319618(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=899&uid=swg21319618) Ã© um destes tipos de documento, ajudou muito.
Estamos com um problema de expansÃ£o de grupos no cliente Sametime do iNotes e um PMR jÃ¡ foi aberto. Acho que Ã© um bug mas como a integraÃ§Ã£o de produtos sempre tem umas "pegadinhas" vamos ver o resultado. Obs: Grupos aninhados nÃ£o sÃ£o suportados no cliente iNotes

Instalando iNotes Activex com Group Policies

13 May, 2009

Em ambientes nÃ£o muito controlados nÃ£o existem problemas para os usuÃ¡rios instalarem o Activex do iNotes. Mas em ambientes corporativos, onde a seguranÃ§a das estaÃ§Ãµes Ã© controlada e o acesso dos usuÃ¡rios Ã© cada vez mais restrito, instalar controles Activex Ã© um problema. NÃ£o existe ainda um instalador para o Activex do iNotes, ou seja nÃ£o podemos distribuir como um software a ser instalado na mÃ¡quina. Para contornar o problema o TN 1278484(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=0&uid=swg21272484) explica como permitir que os usuÃ¡rios podem instalar o Activex sem terem direito Power Users (requerido para instalar o Activex).

Domino console em Windows 2003

12 May, 2009

Administrar servidores remotamente Ã© o cotidiano de todos os administradores que eu conheÃ§o. Uma configuraÃ§Ã£o no RDC (Remote Desktop Client) que eu utilizei por muito tempo me permitia "ver" a console do Domino quando este estÃ¡ em servidores Windows iniciado como serviÃ§o. 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.

GeraÃ§Ã£o de URL’s no Portal

11 May, 2009

Um desafio que enfrentamos no desenvolvimento de Portais (considerando aqui Portal = WebSphere Portal) Ã© a geraÃ§Ã£o de URL's para passar parÃ¢metros ou mesmo para criar links amigÃ¡veis, jÃ¡ que as pÃ¡ginas do portal nÃ£o sÃ£o geradas de forma amigÃ¡vel. Este problema advÃ©m, na minha opiniÃ£o, de como as coisas sÃ£o feitas no mundo das aplicaÃ§Ãµes web tradicionais (tradicional = sem portal) onde Ã© simples endereÃ§ar, atravÃ©s de URL, um servlet ou chamar um componente e passar os parÃ¢metros requeridos e obter o resultado.
O que ocorre Ã© que em um portal nÃ£o sÃ£o geradas URL's para Portlets e sim para PÃ�GINAS (API IBM ou JSR168). Existem algumas recursos para contornar este probl

Hora de renovar certificaÃ§Ãµes

10 Aug, 2008

Esta semana estaou iniciando a renovaÃ§Ã£o de algumas certificaÃ§Ãµes. Volto agora a dar um pouco mais de atenÃ§Ã£o para o "mundo" do Lotus Notes & Domino. Tenho como objetivo renovar as certificaÃ§Ãµes para o produto atÃ© a versÃ£o 8. A medida que for levantando material vou publicar aqui.
A estratÃ©gia vai ser a que sempre usei: 1 - Instalar o Servidor e o Cliente nas Ãºltimas versÃµes disponÃveis
2 - Uma boa olhada no help principalmente na parte: What is New
3 - Adquirir o simulado para a prova Pretendo renovar cada certificaÃ§Ã£o gastando no mÃ¡ximo 20 horas de estudo para cada prova, tenho de fazer 4 para renovar atÃ© Domino & Notes 8
