Editor's Notes
- Domino Policies – FAQ http://www-10.lotus.com/ ldd / dominowiki . nsf / dx /domino-policies- faq Infocenter: Policies http:// publib .boulder. ibm .com/ infocenter / domhelp /v8r0/index. jsp ?topic=/com. ibm .help.domino.admin85.doc/H_USING_POLICIES_881_OVER.html Publish Widgets/Live Text, disclaimers, notes.ini variables, Notes UI, etc.
- Infocenter: Policies http:// publib .boulder. ibm .com/ infocenter / domhelp /v8r0/index. jsp ?topic=/com. ibm .help.domino.admin85.doc/H_USING_POLICIES_881_OVER.html Activities -- Use activities policy settings to define a user's activities server and assigned port, and whether the user names, passwords, and activities data are to be encrypted with SSL. Archive -- Use archive policy settings to control mail archiving. Archive settings control where archiving is performed and specify archive criteria. Note In previous releases, the Archive policy settings document was named the Mail archive policy settings document. Desktop -- Use desktop policy settings to update the user's desktop environment and to assign the settings that are applied only once, during user setup. You can use the desktop policy settings document to establish desktop policy settings and setup policy settings. Desktop policy settings control the user's workspace and are enforced the first time a user logs in to Notes and runs setup. After the initial setup, you can use them to update the user's desktop settings. These settings control availability of functions such as Widgets and Live Text, the composite applications editor, calendar and scheduling, and many others. Mail -- Use mail policy settings to set and enforce client settings and preferences for mail and for Calendaring and Scheduling. Lotus Traveler -- Use the Lotus Traveler policy settings document to define preferences for synchronizing Lotus Domino users' mail database data with their mobile handheld devices. You can synchronize Email, Calendar, To-Do, Address Book and Journal data. Lotus Symphony -- Use the Symphony (previously named Productivity Tools) policy settings document to define whether users can use IBM ® Lotus ® Symphony ™ editors and to designate which files and templates they can use. Registration -- If a policy including registration policy settings is in place before you register Notes users, these settings set default user registration values including user password, Internet address format, Domino roaming user designation, and mail. Roaming -- Use the Roaming policy settings document to configure file server roaming for registered Notes standard configuration users. Security -- Use security settings to set up administration ECLs and define password-management options, including the synchronization of Internet and Notes passwords. Setup -- All of the settings available in the setup policy settings document are now also included in the desktop policy settings document. We strongly suggest you use the new, updated desktop policy settings document to define both your desktop policy settings and your setup policy settings. If a policy including setup policy settings is in place before you set up a new Notes client, these settings are used during the initial Notes client setup to populate the user's Location document. Setup settings include Internet browser and proxy settings, applet security settings, and desktop and user preferences.
- Comparing transaction logging styles There are three logging styles to choose from -- circular, linear, and archived. The logging style you choose is also dependent on your disk size and backup strategy. With circular logging, Domino reuses a fixed amount of disk space (up to 4GB) for transaction logs. After the disk space is used up, Domino starts overwriting old transactions, starting with the oldest. When the space fills up, perform a backup on the databases. You may need to do daily backups to capture database changes before they are overwritten, depending on the server activity level. Use circular logging if the size of the log needed between full database backup intervals is less than 4GB. Linear logging is like circular logging, except it allows more than 4GB. Use linear logging if the size of the log needed between full database backup intervals is greater than 4GB, and you are not using archive media. Archived logging creates log files as needed. It simplifies backup and restoration, and provides online and partial backups. The log files are not overwritten until you archive them. With archived logging, you must have a backup utility to back up the filled log extents so that they are ready if needed. If you do not have a backup utility, the server continues to create log extents, fills up the disk space, and then panics. http:// publib .boulder. ibm .com/ infocenter / domhelp /v8r0/index. jsp ?topic=/com. ibm .help.domino.admin85.doc/H_SETTING_UP_TRANSACTION_LOGGING_5997.html

Configuration settings are flagged when their values are known to cause problems based on prior customer experience. Out-of-range and unexpected values are reported so that undefined behavior can be prevented. Suggested adjustments help you achieve known server performance improvements.
