There are a number of disadvantages to using local replica-based mail. The primary disadvantage is the complexity of the process. This complexity takes several forms. Additional configuration is required on the Lotus Notes client. By default, local replicas of mail files are not created when configuring a Notes client. As a result, deploying a Notes client with a replica takes longer than when setting it up to access mail only from a server. If an existing user is configured to access locally based mail replicas, the initial replication of the mail file may take a significant amount of time, depending upon the amount of mail and the speed of the network. In addition, administrators need to configure Location documents in the personal address book to optimally support using local mail replicas.
Using local replica-based mail is only supported by the Lotus Notes client. Replication is a Notes and Domino feature and is not supported by other mail clients. Users who work with server-based mail can take advantage of alternative methods to access their mail, such as using Domino Web Access through a Web browser. These alternative methods cannot be used to access a local mail replica.
Users require more training to use local replica-based mail. Most users are familiar with the model of working with mail from the server and do not have an inherent grasp of what it means to replicate. Additional training is required to ensure that users can work with mail in a local replica-based mail configuration, otherwise more support calls will be generated by users who do not understand why they are not receiving new mail. The increase in support calls is more apparent in organizations that deploy server-based mail first, and then later switch to local mail replicas, as opposed to organizations that initially deploy local mail replicas from the start.
When problems arise with a user accessing local mail replicas, additional troubleshooting must be performed by help desk staff. For example, an administrator troubleshooting a problem with a user who is not receiving mail must first verify that mail was received on the server, and then must check that it was replicated successfully. The additional troubleshooting increases the time it takes to close a help desk case.
Because there are now at least two replicas of the mail file, both replicas must be administered. Most of the time, little or no maintenance is performed on local mail replicas because users do not know how to do so. Therefore, tasks such as compact, updall, and fixup are rarely performed on local mail replicas. The lack of preventive maintenance can occasionally result in more incidents of database corruption in local mail replicas. Although data is rarely lost in this situation, the resolution may require a new replica of the mail file to be pulled from the server, which may take a substantial amount of time.
Using local mail replicas requires more workstation resources. Depending on the policies of the organization, users may have very large mail files, and the PC needs the disk storage to handle it. Organizations with workstation hardware that is three or four years old may not have the disk space to accommodate large mail replicas. This concern does not normally exist in organizations with newer workstation hardware.
Users who replicate mail and other corporate data to a workstation run the risk of data being stolen. This problem is a chief concern associated with users who have laptops. When a copy of the data resides on the workstation, if the workstation is compromised, then the data is at risk. The risk of stolen corporate data can be mitigated by encrypting local replicas with varying degrees of encryption. The encryption is tied to the Notes ID file and therefore, is reasonably secure unless the thief knows the password. The weakness in the encryption protection is the user. If the user has an easily guessed password, then encryption may not be foolproof. Also, using encryption is dependant on the user choosing to encrypt the mail and other databases.
When using local replica-based mail, there may be a delay in receiving and sending new mail. This situation is definitely true for users who work primarily offline. This time lag is due to the fact that mail needs to be replicated locally before it is read. This condition can be impacted by the length of time between scheduled replications, or if the Notes client is configured to only perform replication manually. When mail is composed offline, it is not actually sent through the Domino server until the next replication because no network connection exists. As a result, even though the mail may appear to have been sent hours before, the recipient will not receive it until the next time the sender replicates with the server.
The delay is minimized for users who work in a local replica with a connection back to the Domino server. The Notes client will poll the server for new mail, and if it encounters some before the next scheduled replication interval, it will initiate a replication session to pull down the mail before the scheduled replication commences. Although users working in a local replica will still experience some lag while data is transferred from the server, it is offset by the mail polling intervals configurable in the Notes client.
Although users with locally based replicas can still access their mail using other methods, such as Domino Web Access, they may find that the information in the server-based replica is not current. For example, users who work in a local replica may find that their unread marks have not synchronized between the local and server replicas. This problem can be resolved by the option to replicate unread marks introduced in Lotus Notes and Domino 6.0.3 and 6.5.2.
Users may also find that information is not the same between local and server replicas. Two common scenarios where differences may occur are when the user works extensively offline and does not replicate the changes back to the server and if the user configured replication formulas. An example of replication formulas could occur in an organization with a 30-day mail retention policy on the Domino server. A user in this organization may have configured replication so that deletions in the server copy of the mail are not replicated to the local replica. In this case, the local replica of the mail will contain many more messages than the server copy, a condition that may cause confusion for the user and additional help desk calls.
Database links, view links, and doclinks may not work properly when using a local mail replica. For example, suppose you receive a doclink in an email message that has been replicated from the server. If you go offline and click the doclink, an error message is displayed. This error may create the impression that there is a problem with the link. In reality, the error occurs because you are offline and therefore, do not have access to the server. Additional help desk calls may be generated as a result. This situation is only a problem for users who work primarily offline. Users who use a local mail replica and have a persistent connection to the server will usually not encounter this issue.
Finally, when working offline with local mail replicas, the scheduling of conference rooms and resources is not available. You can reserve rooms and resources from the Notes calendar via free time lookups of the server busytime.nsf database (called clubusy.nsf in a Domino cluster environment). Information on a user?s own schedule is accessible when offline, but information of the availability of rooms and resources requires a connection to the server. This limitation also extends to looking up free time information for other employees in the organization, unless the user has added other users to the local Free Time database.
The last item has been solved in Release 7.0.2 !!!

VMware optimize Linux guest operating systems
Tue, Dec 9th 2008 3:21a John Willemse
Linux guest operating systems are greatly affected by the System clock of the kernel. Linux 2.6 defaults to a 1000Hz clock tick rate, and that will put a strain on the virtual environment, and can cause problems with system time keeping. Linux 2.4 does not have this problem as the clock runs at 100Hz. If running Linux 2.6 based virtual machines, re-compile the kernel to run at 100Hz, or use one of the newer kernels (2.6.22+) which use the No HZ dynamic clock. Centos offers community

During the installation of Windows Home Server (WHS) on VMware Server 2.0 the hard disk was not recognized.
VMware suggests by default that you create SCSI hard drives when you create a new VM based on the Win2003 profile.
Turns out that WHS will not recognize these drives:
You will have to shutdown the VM, remove and optionally delete the original SCSI disk, and create new IDE drive.
Remember to make it bigger than 65GB, and now installation should run smoothly.

Disadvantages of local replica-based mail
Sat, Oct 4th 2008 3:30p John Willemse
There are a number of disadvantages to using local replica-based mail. The primary disadvantage is the complexity of the process. This complexity takes several forms. Additional configuration is required on the Lotus Notes client. By default, local replicas of mail files are not created when configuring a Notes client. As a result, deploying a Notes client with a replica takes longer than when setting it up to access mail only from a server. If an existing user is configured to access locally ba [read] Keywords: domino

Cleanup Lotus Notes Resource Reservations database
Tue, Sep 30th 2008 3:51p John Willemse
Once a month, you must clean out "old" reservations from the Resource Reservation database in Lotus Domino. This causes e-mail notifications to be sent to the owners of past reservations. Is there any way to prevent these e-mails?. In one particular case, the purge agent was disabled. See Fig 1: Purge Documents Agent
Once the purge agent is enabled, there is no need to manually clean the database on a regular basis and no notification e-mails will be sent.
To enable the purge agent:

Separate thread to do full text indexing
Sat, Sep 13th 2008 7:50a John Willemse
Update_Fulltext_Thread=1
Full-text indexing operations occurring on the Domino server can cause performance degradation. By default, the full-text indexing function is performed by the update threads that are responsible for updating views. This can quickly translate into a bottleneck for update processing on the Domino server.
Setting the Update_Fulltext_Thread parameter to 1 allows use of a separate thread to do full text indexing so that long full text indexes don't delay view updates. [read] Keywords: admin

Defining the number of databases cached simultaneously
If your server has sufficient memory, you can improve the performance of the server by increasing the number of databases that Lotus Domino can cache in memory at one time. To do so, use the NSF_DbCache_Maxentries statement in the NOTES.INI file. The default value is 25 or the NSF_Buffer_Pool_Size divided by 300 KB, whichever value is greater.
