What to do after installing Notes 8.0.2...
Lotus Nut    

This actually applies to all Standard versions of Notes and, really, any other Eclipse-based app that has tons of files installed.

Get Defraggler. Now.

Then use it to defrag your Notes folder. After uninstalling an 8.5 Beta and installing 8.0.2 Gold, there were over 2,000 fragmented files in my Notes path! If you want to scrounge every bit of performance out of Notes, you should defrag the folder. Sure, Notes 8.0.2 will load faster without doing this, but fragmentation is a performance killer - especially on slower laptop drives. Defraggler, and some other tools I&os;m sure, provide the ability to do this. You can defrag single or multiple files (ahem, VM images) or highlight the path the file is in and defrag all files in that path. This gives you a rather quick defrag without having to wait for the entire drive to be defragged.

Easy Way To Manage ACL or Advanced Properties For a Folder (SNTT)
Wed, Jan 27th 2010 10:58a   Chris Whisonant
One of the nice tricks with the Domino Administrator Client Files tab is the ability to update ACLs and properties for all databases in a folder and sub-folders. To do this, just right-click the folder and choose from the list of available options.

ikeyman Not Allowing 2048 bit keysize
Wed, Jan 27th 2010 10:58a   Chris Whisonant
Earlier today I was renewing the SSL certificate for BleedYellows IHS server. But I ran into a slight issue in that the IBM SSL Key Management utility (ikeyman) was only giving me the choice of 512 or 1024 bit key length. But now, 2 years later (wow, time flies!), GoDaddy requires 2048 or 4096 bit requests and does not accept a 1024 bit request. This is good to know, for sure!

How To Speed Up Your Domino Server And Reduce Corruption

 This is definitely an age-old recommendation, but it is something that most customers have problems with. OS-level Antivirus. IBM has finally published a technote (1417504) a href=http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21417504Recommendations for exclusions when running Operation (sic) System Antivirus/a. This will definitely be handy to be able to show a customer direct instructions from IBM and not quot;justquot; recommendations from a third party (who sees this all the time). img [read] Keywords: domino ibm lotus notes application bleedyellow bleedyellow.com database desktop security server

Don't forget to update transaction logging format in 8.5
Fri, Sep 25th 2009 12:00p   Chris Whisonant
For Domino 8.5 + there is a new notes.ini setting to create i/o optimized transaction logs for platforms with a block size different than the default 512 bytes. The notes.ini variable is: Create_R85_Log=1. With notes.ini variables, also make sure you're using the Configuration Document to set these instead of directly in the notes.ini.

Having told you where to get Domino Fixlists.. can someone now explain DB2 Fix Packs to me?
Tue, Sep 1st 2009 3:53p   Chris Whisonant
I was working on an ODBC/DECS/DB2 integration and was Googling for an error. Turns out I got a big chuckle at this technote. Question After upgrading your server to DB2 UDB Version 8.1 FixPak 10 (also known as Version 8.2 FixPak 3), you will encounter... I think that's all you need to read. Does anything stand out to you?? So are DB2 8.1 FP10 and DB2 8.2 FP3 the same release?? That's hilarious! And I thought there was confusion sometimes with Domino...

How Do I Find Info On Notes and Domino Fixpacks?
Tue, Sep 1st 2009 10:40a   Chris Whisonant
After the release of Notes and Domino 8.5 Fixpack 1, there has been some concern expressed over customers and partners not being able to see the fixes at the devWorks fixlist site. If you go there currently, you can see the following releases listed: Notice that there are not any SPR's listed as fixed for 8.0.2 FP1, 8.0.2 FP2, 8.0.2 IFR1, 8.5 FP1, or 8.5 IFR1. But there is a way to see what you need for your upgrade planning. You need to navigate to a somewhat hidden "notices" view at this UR [read] Keywords: document domino ibm ldd lotus notes notes client bleedyellow bleedyellow.com
