After this is applied, aAttachments will use the older DHTML user interface, but will work.

Scheduled agent stops executing if Compact is already running on the database
Mon, Sep 17th 2012 7:11a Kenio Carvalho You have a scheduled agent that runs at a set frequency (such as 30 minutes). This schedule agent runs correctly most of the time. If, however, the agent attempts to execute (per its schedule) while Compact is running on the same database, the agent stops running. The agent is also removed from the scheduled queue. (The scheduled agent queue is an internal queue that keeps track of which agents need to run.) The agent is not returned to the queue until Agent Manager refreshes the Cache.

Limits of RunOnServer agent feature
Mon, Aug 27th 2012 6:11a Kenio Carvalho 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 i [read] Keywords: agent
