April, 2021 OpenNTF Webinar - Domino Administration Best PracticesHoward Greenberg
While installing a new HCL Domino server is a relatively straight forward task, configuring the server properly requires knowledge. Lacking this knowledge means that several key steps may be missed resulting in a server with potential security and performance issues. Additionally there are several key features that will save you time on administration of the server. Domino server settings also affect the performance and security of custom applications. Even if you are a developer you should be aware of the options available when configuring a server.
Join our incredibly experienced presenters as they share their many years of Domino expertise. They will cover the finer details to correctly setup a Domino server environment that is optimized for performance, security and sustainable administration. Plus use this information presented in this webinar to modify and improve your existing server environment.

Basic Domino Performance Tuning. Ideas how to improve performance, statistics how to get information that we have issues and how to fix them
How to configure IWA / SPNEGO for IBM Domino enabling Windows authenticated users to access Domino web applications without being prompted for further authentication
October OpenNTF Webinar - What we like about Domino/Notes 12, recommended new...Howard Greenberg
In this webinar OpenNTF members will discuss the Domino/Notes 12 features they like and suggest for everyone to check out!
The topics and speakers will be:
Time-based One-time Authentication (TOTP) - Roberto Boccadoro
TOTP allows multi-factor authentication. When users login to a Domino web server they have to provide a time-based one-time use password in addition to their usual name/password. This is done using a third party application like Google Authenticator, Authy or Duo Mobile on their mobile devices/computers.
Domino OSGI Tasklet Service (DOTS) - Serdar Basegmez
Create Domino server tasks using Java OSGI plugins. These can be scheduled and can interface with the server console using TELL commands.
One Touch Setup for Domino - Roberto Boccadoro
In previous versions of HCL Domino, setting up a Domino server involved multiple steps. Starting with Domino 12, you can use one-touch Domino setup to set up a server in just a single step.
Bewährte Praktiken für HCL Notes/Domino-Sicherheit. Teil 2: Der Domino-Serverpanagenda
Aufnahme: http://pan.news/20210420de
Abstract: Server sind das Rückgrat Ihrer IT-Umgebung. Deren Sicherheit ist für jeden IT-Profi von größter Bedeutung. Besonders bei Servern mit Fernzugriff wird dies zu einer heiklen Angelegenheit. Es ist ein schmaler Grat zwischen der komfortablen Nutzung auf der einen Seite und dem Schutz gegen Angreifer auf der anderen Seite.
Zu den Sicherheitsbedenken gehören die mangelnde physische Sicherheit von Geräten, die Verwendung ungesicherter Netzwerke, die ungewollte externe Verfügbarkeit interner Ressourcen und der unbefugte Zugriff aus dem eigenen Unternehmen.
HCL Domino ist eine leistungsfähige und ausgereifte Serverplattform mit einem großen Funktionsumfang. Das macht sie zwar zu einer guten Wahl für viele Anwendungen, bedeutet aber auch, dass es viele potenzielle Möglichkeiten gibt, sich angreifbar zu machen.
In diesem Webinar helfen Ihnen unsere Experten, jeden Aspekt der Absicherung Ihrer Domino-Umgebungen zu betrachten:
• Lernen Sie die Grundlagen der Domino-Server-Sicherheit kennen
• Beheben Sie Probleme mit der Standardkonfiguration und vermeiden Sie häufige Fallstricke
• Sorgen Sie für einen sicheren Zugriff über Notes-Client, HTTP oder SMTP
• Richten Sie eine Datenbank-Zugriffskontrolle für Ihre gesamte Infrastruktur ein
• Schützen Sie Ihre Server vor internen Angriffen
• Vermeiden Sie Schwachstellen, indem Sie Domino-Server und Betriebssystem auf dem neuesten Stand halten
You may be a pro at administering a Domino server, but that doesn't mean you understand everything under the hood. Learn the no-fuss, no-frills, simple explanations of the most common Domino concepts and find out exactly how they work, and how to apply this knowledge to help avoid problems and improve performance. You'll learn how reader fields work, how replication and cluster replication works, mail routing including SMTP, the secrets of ACLs, ID file details, Adminp, busytime, cross-certification, recertifying, Domino domains, transaction logging, view indexes, and more. Learning the entire concept behind the "stuff" that's in Domino will make you a better troubleshooter, a faster problem-solver, and an all-around great admin!
Are your servers running out of disk space? Do you have more than one bit like attachment stored in your databases? Does a standard task like fixup lasts for ages or does your backup still runs during working hours? Do you have quota enabled and your users are asking for more space?
If you can answer one or more of these questions with YES, than this session is for you.
Maximize the disk space savings provided by Domino Attachment and Object Service (DAOS) and ensure that your environment is properly configured for best performance with this feature. Save more space by simply enabling design and document compression. Make sure that your attachments use best compression too. Reduce network bandwidth when replicating databases between servers and increase mail quotas without using more disk space.
Target audience is administrators or decision makers who want to know more about some older but not yet used space savers and especially about DAOS.

Traveler is a core component of most companies’ mail infrastructure but its maintenance and security goes far beyond Domino server management. In this session we’ll look at a Traveler environment from daily tasks to enforcing TLS and starting with understanding how Traveler behaves. We’ll review both standalone and high availability configurations and discuss common problems, as well how best to plan and design a secure and stable infrastructure.

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?
Globus Connect Server Deep Dive - GlobusWorld 2024Globus

Enhancing Research Orchestration Capabilities at ORNL.pdfGlobus
Cross-facility research orchestration comes with ever-changing constraints regarding the availability and suitability of various compute and data resources. In short, a flexible data and processing fabric is needed to enable the dynamic redirection of data and compute tasks throughout the lifecycle of an experiment. In this talk, we illustrate how we easily leveraged Globus services to instrument the ACE research testbed at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility with flexible data and task orchestration capabilities.
Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
JASMIN is the UK’s high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERC’s long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.

Gamify Your Mind; The Secret Sauce to Delivering Success, Continuously Improv...Shahin Sheidaei
Games are powerful teaching tools, fostering hands-on engagement and fun. But they require careful consideration to succeed. Join me to explore factors in running and selecting games, ensuring they serve as effective teaching tools. Learn to maintain focus on learning objectives while playing, and how to measure the ROI of gaming in education. Discover strategies for pitching gaming to leadership. This session offers insights, tips, and examples for coaches, team leads, and enterprise leaders seeking to teach from simple to complex concepts.
In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

3. Choose Upgrade/Deployment Tool
• I personally wouldn’t suggest to use “Notes Smart Upgrade”
• “AUT – Notes Auto Update” is not available for this upgrade path
− Only IBM Notes 10.0.1 or later clients on Windows can be upgraded
− See here for more details:
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSKTMJ_10.0.1/admin/inst_aut_overview.html
• Third-Party-Solution for Notes → Yes – but no advertising here!
• Third-Party-Solutions for Windows, like SCCM or others

4. Create Upgrade Package
• No need to make changes to MSI package(s)
− Scripts can help here
− Differentiation between package and configuration (notes.ini, ConfigFile, etc.)
− That will help you a lot when it comes to package changes, new versions and testing
• Always include an Uninstall part in your package
− In-place upgrades are not recommended
− You can use the package also in cases of a new installation or re-install
47. #dominoforever

4. Create Upgrade Package (2)
• Installation order
a) Uninstall current version
▪ Using NICE (Notes Install Cleanup Executable)
https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21459714
b) Run local cleanup
▪ Remove old Program- and SharedData- Directory
c) Install IBM Notes 10.0.1
d) Adding French and Japanese (Multilingual User Interface = MUI)
e) Install SwiftFile 4.2.1

• Additional Information
− For an installation on Citrix, please check out this slideshare:
https://www.slideshare.net/christophadler50/panagenda-webinar-virtual-faster-better-how-to-virtualize-ibm-notesv10
− If you need/want to switch from Single to MultiUser installation
▪ Check out the MUMA Tool (Multi-User Migration Assistant) – must be done before Upgrade
to Notes 10.0.1:
https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21459627
▪ A specific Third-Party solution can help here during Upgrade process – also if you want to
migrate the DataDir from NetworkDrive to default local
52. #dominoforever

5. Define post Upgrade actions
• notes.ini changes for existing configurations (via MarvelClient Essentials or Policy)
− Remove CREATE_R85_DATABASES=1
− Remove CREATE_R9_DATABASES=1
− Add CREATE_R10_DATABASES=1
− Add NSF_UpdateODS=1
− Add V10_WORKSPACE_BACKGROUND_MODE=1 → see next slide

IBM Notes 10.x – Workspace
• This will be controlled by a notes.ini parameter:
− V10_WORKSPACE_BACKGROUND_MODE=0 → default (blue)
− V10_WORKSPACE_BACKGROUND_MODE=1 → classic (grey lines)
− V10_WORKSPACE_BACKGROUND_MODE=2 → customized
• If you choose for “2”, make sure you have an image resource in your local bookmark.nsf
named “$WorkspaceImage”

6. Test, pilot, production
• Test
− Try to use virtual machines with snapshots
− Use images, which are very close to your production configuration
▪ Desktops vs. Laptops vs. VDI
▪ ActiveDirectoy → GPOs (Group Policy Objects)
▪ No local Admin rights
▪ Enabled UAC (User Account Control)
▪ Installed AV (Anti-Virus) Software
▪ …

6. Test, pilot, production (2)
• Pilot
− Choose the members of the pilot group wisely and let them know
− 20 – 50 users from different departments and with different requirements on IBM Notes
− …
• Production Deployment
− Inform your ServiceDesk and your users before you push the button
− Balance your deployment by upgrading e. g. 100-500 users at the same time – no more
− …

ODS53 – Update your existing Databases
• ODS53 needs to be enabled (new default is ODS52) using notes.ini parameter
− CREATE_R10_DATABASES=1
• Update – Client:
− Use notes.ini parameter NSF_UpdateODS=1 for a one-time upgrade of most local
databases
▪ NOTE: USE WITH EXTREME CARE IF YOUR DATA DIRECTORIES ARE ON A NETWORK DRIVE!
▪ NOTE: End users can't access databases during compact OR databases will be ignored if in use
• Update – Server:
− DBMT –ods –ct 4
▪ NOTE: Some databases with internally hard coded older ODS might still need
compact -upgrade
60. #dominoforever

ODS53 – Proceed with caution
• Running with mixed release levels?
− Notes 10.x client can work with ODS53 and earlier
− Notes 9.x and earlier client can open ODS53 database IF:
− 64 GB or less
− Folder limit within R9 limits
− Notes 9 client can work with documents IF:
− Summary data within 32k limit
− Field names within 23k limit

Preventing Updates to ServerTasksAt
Tired of losing your ServerTasksAt customizations when upgrading?
SetupLeaveServerTasks to the rescue
– Add SetupLeaveServerTasks=1 to server’s notes.ini
– Disables automatic updating of the ServerTasks= and ServerTasksAtXX= lines during a
Domino Server upgrade

Java Tricks
If get Java errors when doing an installation
– Trying to patch the Java error can be daunting
– Install the full product (always includes Java)
• Applies to Domino, Notes, Traveler
Want to switch to 64-bit JVM on IBM i?
– New in 10.0.1, can use CFGDOMSVR or CHGDOMSVR to change/set
JVM version
– Prior releases, set JAVA_HOME variable
• JAVA_HOME=/QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/JavaVM/jdk80/64bit
– Careful, it IS case sensitive!!

Preventing Design Ping-Pong
Replicating templates between servers
– Most templates share same replica ID across servers
– Latest design gets replicated
– Stops ping-pong chain of events
Limiting Design task execution
– Runs by default at 1:00 AM along with Catalog task
• ServerTasksAt1=Catalog, Design
– Remove ‘Design’ from this variable
• set config ServerTasksAt1=Catalog
• Or edit notes.ini file directly
– Until all servers are at same code level
67. #dominoforever

Delaying Upgrading Directory
If choose to not upgrade directory during installation set notes.ini
– SERVER_UPGRADE_NO_DIRECTORY_REDESIGN=0
Set variable and restart server BEFORE upgrading Domino level

Don’t forget to upgrade your local IBM Notes Client databases to
latest ODS53
ODS = On Disk Structure
• ODS 16 = Notes 2
• ODS 17 = Notes 3
• ODS 20 = Notes 4
• ODS 41 = Notes 5
• ODS 43 = Notes 6 & 7
• ODS 48 = Notes 8
• ODS 51 = Notes 8.5 & 9
• ODS 52 = Notes 9.0.1
• ODS 53 = Notes 10
The difference between ODS 43 and 53 = up to 80% LESS FILE I/O
This helps with ANY client AND server hardware
