Always wanted an easy way to copy/paste selected databases from the admin client’s files tab:
By chance, I tried edit-copy on Notes Admin 851 client and it works (never worked before, I retested in V7, 8 and 85, the Edit-Copy is greyed out). The paste into a spreadsheet works as you would want it to.
I upgraded my 2 Laptops to Notes 8.5.1 today. Both machines already had 8.5.1 BETA CD 8 installed.
Upgrading from 8.5.1 Beta CD8 to 8.5.1 Gold took about 95 minutes on one machine. There was a lot of disk activity during the upgrade process. The progress bar moved slowly but steady.
On the other machine, I decided to uninstall the client prior to upgrading. On this machine, it took only 15 minutes to install the client.
When installing Lotus Notes 8.5.1, I saw this message on the screen.
Anyone knows, what the “com.ibm.lotus.openntf.traffic.feature” does ?
After some trouble with my entitlements, I was finally able to download Notes / Domino 8.5.1.
By default the Telnet client does not come installed on Windows 7. To enable the client, just do the following
1. Click on Start Menu >> Control Panel >> Programs
2. Click on Turn Windows Features On or Off
3. Mark Telnet Client and click OK
I will be on holiday from tuesday until the end of october.
On 21-Oct-2009 I will celebrate my 5oth birthday under the caribbean sun. I’m looking forward relaxing on the beach.
… With Domino 8.5.1, IBM also is making Domino Designer application development software available free of charge. Software developers will be able to download Domino Designer free from IBM’s developerWorks site to build and extend Notes and Domino applications.

Update:
the electronic general availability for Notes/Domino 8.5.1 will be Monday, October 12.
When your DAOS catalog gets out of sync, it has to be resynced again. This has not do be done immediately, because an out of sync catalog only affects the prune process. DAOS will work even with an out of sync catalog.
An earlier entry in the Lotus Notes and Domino Wiki described, how to automatically resync the catalog with DDM. This document has now been removed and replaced by a description of how to do the process using a program document. (DAOS: How To Set Up A Regularly Scheduled Resynchronization).
The most important information in this document is
Note that if a resync operation is performed when the DAOS catalog is already in ‘Synchronized’ state, the operation detect that there is no work to do, and will exit immediately.
This seems to be obvious as there is also a “tell daosmgr resync force” command, which will resync the catalog even if in syncronized state.
But the administration help is not clear enough as far as I’m concerned.
But what is the best time to schedule the program document? You can find out the best time for your environment by using the Log Analysis from the Administration Client.
If you want to be sure that the catalog is synchronized before 02:00 am, you have to find out how long the resync process lasts.
Open the Log Analysis in the Administration Client and search for “DAOSMGR: Resync” ( Match all words ).
You will get a result like
If you want to schedule a daily resync after the prune process, you need to know, how long the prune process runs on the server.
Using Log Analysis and “DAOSMGR: Prune” for the search, you will get this result.
Now you can configure the program document and set the schedule time either 7 hours before or 15 minutes after the daily prune operation.
A few minutes ago, I received an email from Microsoft. Watch the subject 🙂
I’m looking forward to receiving the final one.
