It is the same as the below article however it is nice to get published. I would have publish more articles previously however it has been a long and arduous process to get the access and procedures in place. Terri Puckett at IBM was fantastic and didn't give up after we hit many brick walls in the process - thanks Terri. http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=0&q1=1417054&uid=swg21417054 Comments [0] DAOS The module has an invalid magic number Glenn Richardson 8 December 2009 22:14:21 A customer was getting the following error message run the DAOS Estimator V1.5 notes@vlphdapp3:/home/notes> /opt/ibm/par1/lotus/bin/daosest -h Could not load program /opt/ibm/par1/lotus/notes/latest/ibmpow/daosest: Dependent module /opt/ibm/par1/lotus/notes/latest/ibmpow/libnotes_r.a could not be loaded. The module has an invalid magic number. The customer was using the 64bit DAOS Estimator on their 64bit AIX operating system, however Domino was only 32bit. After the 32bit DAOS Estimator V1.5 was down loaded it ran successfully Note: The DAOS Estimator bit version needs to match the Domino version not the operating system.

IM_NO_SETUP=1 This setting stops the user from being prompted for Sametime details during client set-up. IM_ENABLE_SSO=1 This setting passes the Notes credentials through to Sametime so the user doesn't need to enter a password. Comments [0] nlnotes Error when launching nlnotes.exe Glenn Richardson 27 May 2008 12:43:11 When launching nlnotes.exe you receive the following error: IBM Lotus Domino does not have a production license. A Temporary evaluation license has been enrolled for you to use for 60 days. This is a warning only, after clicking OK the client will still load after some more errors pop up. IBM has not recommended accessing the server (if ever) via this method since at least version 6 and it has been strongly advised against for years. Comments [0] Tips Copying Databases Glenn Richardson 26 May 2008 10:25:38 I can't take any credit for this article it has come straight of Bruce Elgort's Blog, www.bruceelgort.com Bruce has lots of great articles up on his Blog and is definitely worth a read. I have put this article up here on my Blog for reference only. Recently I needed to make "copies" of some Lotus Notes databases and didn't want to do it from my Notes client. This would have take hours considering the database was 5gb. I knew that there had to be a way to do this and thanks to the assistance of my friend Thomas Gumz, I was able to issue a command line from the Domino server console and presto, the database was instantly copied. Yes, it's not documented nor supported, but has been around for a long time, at least since V4 according to Thomas. So let's look at what you need to do to enable this feature: The server console commands are turned off by default, you need to first enable them: Set this server notes.ini variable, like so: > set config CLUSTER_ADMIN_ON=1 (even if the server is not a in cluster, doesn't matter). No need to restart the server, it becomes active immediately. This enables this new command: CL COPY sourcedb targetdb Examples for the CL COPY command: > CL copy serverA!!db1.nsf serverB!!db2.nsf This would create a regular non-replica copy of db1.nsf on serverA as db2.nsf on ServerB > CL copy serverA!!db1.nsf serverB!!db2.nsf REPLICA This would create a replica copy of db1.nsf on serverA as db2.nsf on ServerB > CL copy serverA!!db1.nsf serverB!!db2.nsf TEMPLATE This would create a template copy (only design, no data) of db1.nsf on serverA as db2.nsf on ServerB > CL copy db1.nsf db2.nsf This would create a regular non-replica copy of db1.nsf as db2.nsf on the same local server Comments [0] ftp ftp to user directory on Cent OS 5 (Red Hat 5) Glenn Richardson 12 January 2008 00:18:00 To enable ftp to the home directory on Cent OS 5 run the following command "setsebool -P ftp_home_dir=1" Comments [0] iNotes Phrase names using DWA or iNotes Glenn Richardson 4 October 2007 09:07:00 iNotes users do not have the option to set their phrase, but the Domino Administrator can set the default format for them. To accomplish this: 1. Open the Domino Server's Configuration document in the Domino Directory. 2. Go to the MIME > Advanced tab > Advanced Outbound Message Options tab. In the 'RFC822 Phrase Handling' field select: Value - result ============================================== Use DN as phrase - "Super iNotes/Royal" <super_iNotes@acme.com> Use CN as phrase - "Super iNotes" <super_iNotes@acme.com> Comments [0] News Bruce Elgort steps down as front man of OpenNTF Glenn Richardson 31 May 2007 14:33:00 Bruce has worked closely with on OpenNTF since it’s inception. OpenNTF has always been a great place to go for Notes applications and ideas. I have been a regular user of the site for many years and have met Bruce at Lotusphere. I am sure OpenNTF will continue but would just like to pass on my thanks to Bruce for great ideas and resources.
