This proposal summarizes the plan to migrate One America's Lotus Notes Domino infrastructure to new servers. Key points:
1. The current Domino servers are running outdated versions on Windows 2003 servers and experiencing performance issues. Migrating to new hardware running 64-bit Windows and Domino will improve performance.
2. A thorough evaluation of the current infrastructure will establish baselines to monitor performance during and after the migration.
3. The migration plan is to back up data, install the new servers, copy data and transaction logs to the new locations, and switch server identities over to the new machines. Careful testing will be done at each step.
4. IBM best practices for Domino
How long does it really take to install and configure IBM Connections - 99% of your time is taken up by waiting for things to install.

Exercise 1.1 Installing the Network Load Balancing Feature
Exercise 1.2 Creating a Windows Server 2012 NLB Cluster
Exercise 1.3 Configuring DNS
The document describes a test conducted by IBM's WAS System Test team to build a large-scale Liberty collective topology of 10,000 collective members running on 225 virtual machines. The test stressed both the system management layer through REST API calls and application workload. No significant tuning was required for Liberty to scale to 10,000 members, though the collective controllers required JVM and OS tuning to handle the large data set. The large-scale collective ran stably for over 7 days while undergoing mixed workloads.

The Pensions Trust - VM Backup Experiencesglbsolutions
VMware Backup Experiences Darren Bull Business Support Manager, The Pensions Trust
The Pensions Trust previously used tape backups and manual server recovery for disaster recovery that took 48 hours. They virtualized servers with VMware which simplified backups and DR. They tried EMC's Mirrorview replication but it fell behind and failed. They implemented DataDomain deduplicated storage for backups and replication which achieved 40x storage savings and offsite replication within 24 hours. For backups they moved from BackupExec to Veeam which reduced backup times from 24 hours to minutes and allowed DR testing recovery in under 6 hours. In conclusion, newer backup software and deduplicated storage provided reliable, efficient backups and disaster recovery meeting their 24 hour

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

HCL Notes and Domino License Cost Reduction in the World of DLAUpanagenda
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
These topics will be covered
- Reducing license cost by finding and fixing misconfigurations and superfluous accounts
- How do CCB and CCX licenses really work?
- Understanding the DLAU tool and how to best utilize it
- Tips for common problem areas, like team mailboxes, functional/test users, etc
- Practical examples and best practices to implement right away
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

3. Part I: Mainserver Replacement –
Analysis
Apple OSX Server Roles:
File server
ACL (Access Control List) and POSIX
permissions management
User Management
DHCP Server
DNS Server
Network Composition Problems
Mostly Windows Clients, some
other
Permission Issues Due to POSIX /
ACL permissions conflicting
4. Part I: Mainserver Replacement –
Operating System Choice
Decided to begin testing using FreeBSD
Cost associated with Windows was too great
Test “Server” Hardware
Virtual Machine on VMWare
Processor : i5 4th generation
RAM : 16GB DDR3 @ 1600MHz
Hard Drives : 2 x 1TB HDDs for filesystem testing, 2 x 240GB SSD for OS
OS : VMWare
5. Part I: Mainserver Replacement –
FreeBSD - Challenges
Challenges with FreeBSD
Learning curve
Provisioning an Active Directory with Samba using ZFS as the root filesystem
did not work
Bug in latest version of Samba prevented provisioning an Active Directory at all,
after fixing ZFS as root error
No GUI for administrative tasks / lack of GUI availability
Webmin not quite good enough
8. Part I: Mainserver Replacement – FreeBSD
(ZFS) – Configuration: Webmin
Webmin
A web based GUI for server administration
No Active Directory management modules, but did not matter
Domain Naming conventions
“.com” requires resolution from internet
“.private” a standard for local Active Directory
11. Part I: Mainserver Replacement –
FreeBSD (ZFS) – Configuration: Samba
Samba
Active Directory Domain Controller
Error: Samba setup claims ZFS does not support ACL permissions by default
Error: could not join computers to new domain
.com was not resolvable, but .private was (external vs. internal resolve)
Fixes
Decided to install and setup Windows Server 2016 server as ADDC
It was after this I discovered domain naming issues
Reinstalled FreeBSD using UFS as root filesystem
14. Part I: Mainserver Replacement – FreeBSD
(UFS) – Configuration: Samba
Samba
Active Directory Domain Controller – necessary to add “acls” option to boot
partition
Latest version in FreeBSD pkg and ports (Samba44) had segmentation fault
error during setup. Samba43 also had errors
Used Samba42
19. Part I: Mainserver Replacement –
FreeBSD (UFS) – Final Thoughts
Ease of Installation / Setup
Documentation makes new setup easy
Administration
DHCP – slightly more involved
AD Users and Groups – much easier than Apple Server
Share management – easier than Apple Server
Additional Management – global policies
i.e. turning off autoplay
Cost
Free – only hardware and time cost
20. Part II: Server Replacement -
Background
Requirements
Server3 and Server4, the new servers, were meant to replace two existing servers,
Server1 and Server2
Server Roles:
Server1:
Active Directory Domain Controller
DHCP Server
DNS Server
Windream Server
WINS Server
Primary Backup Server
Server2:
Active Directory Domain Controller
File Server / Secondary Backup Server
21. Part II: Server Replacement – Server4
Setup Procedure
Server4 first
Only serves as Domain Controller
Pre-Installation Configuration
Two RAID1 Volumes:
Volume0 – 2 x 120GB SSDs
Volume1 – 2 x 4TB HDDs
Installation Media Issue
ISO > 4.7GB – could not fit on standard DVD.
Solution – use bootable USB drive instead
Image.wim file > 4GB – could not fit of FAT32 partition
Solution – Use DISM command-line to split into multiple .swm files
22. Part II: Server Replacement – Server4 –
Setup
Windows Server 2012 R2 Setup
Change name to Server4
Configure Static IP Address settings
Domain Controller Issues
Could not promote to ADDC; Domain / Forest functional level too low
23. Part II: Server Replacement – Server4 –
Setup (2)
Domain / Forest Functional Level
Originally, domain created by Windows Server 2000 servers
Server1 and Server2 (Windows 2003 Servers) added later
Domain / Forest functional level never raised, Windows Server 2012 requires Domain
/ Forest Functional level >= Windows Server 2003
Solution – increase domain / forest functional level, then verify and test
24. Part II: Server Replacement – Server3 –
Initial Setup
Server3 Initial Setup

Windream
Windream - a Document Management System
Used for Advanced file auditing
Essentially a file system on an SQL Database
As of 3/31/2017
Windream database ~6GB; Windream file store ~300GB
Validation required
Contracted with Biomedian to help with installation / setup
Windream setup tasks:
Migrate existing “Windream” database from Server1 (SQL 2000) to Server3 (SQL 2014) (my
task)
Copy file store from Server1 to Server3 (my task)
Install Windream 4.5 (Server1 current version), upgrade to Windream 5.5, upgrade to
Windream 6.5 (Biomedian with my help)
Verify data integrity (Windream only)
30. Part II: Server Replacement – Server3 –
Windream (2)
Complications
Cannot directly backup database from SQL 2000 and restore in SQL 2014
Need intermediate step, SQL 2008
File store copy and verification
Copy ~300GB, verify with binary comparison (takes a LONG time, copy takes ~20
hours)
Current Status
File store copied, database migrated
Windream 6.5 installed and working on Server3
Windream 4.5 installation, upgrade to Windream 5.5, and upgrade to Windream 6.5
had no major issues – tested 4/3/2017
31. Part II: Server Replacement – Final
Thoughts
Lessons Learned
The most important lesson I learned during this project was to test everything you
can as early as you can. Server3’s setup had went perfectly well until I tried installing
SQL Server 2014, which ended up causing me to reinstall Server3. I had waited a few
days before attempting to install SQL Server, because I didn’t think it would be
important until closer to the cutover day for Windream. Had I waited to install SQL
Server until later, I may have not had enough time before the Windream cutover day
to reinstall Server3.
Experience
Overall, the greatest benefit of this project was gaining experience in setting up
servers for production use. It is one thing to set up a virtual server and mess around
with it, but it is a whole different beast when setting up servers for a production
environment.
32. Project Summary
Server3 and Server4 have been running for two weeks with no issues after
replacing Server1 and Server2. Users of the network have not reported any
problems with Windream or any other functionalities on the network.
Overall, this project has GREATLY increased my understanding of business
networking, server installation and setup, both in Windows and
Linux/FreeBSD. I also learned valuable communication skills through
working with Biomedion.
