PTF Matrix In order to install Domino Server R5 on AIX , certain program temporary fixes ( PTFs ) are required or specific authorized program analysis reports (APAR s) shou ld be read . The following table lists the patch requirements: 4.3.3.50 Maintenance level 8 (APAR IY10778) and microcode MM1032 required to enable HM T IY11972 Prevents a proble[...]

Performance Guidelines Disclaimer: Performance of applications can only be made in a general sense. Specific characteristics of application implementation on specific hardware will yield different performance characteristics. Performance tools for measurement and tuning exist in most instances and should be used. The Domino Server Family has had su[...]

Other Workload Factors Other factors that can impact the actual load that a given user community places on a Domino server include: Ÿ The extra overhead associated with a significant number of dial-up connections, such as mobile employees getting E-mail or suppliers accessing a supply chain automation application. Ÿ The extent to which applicatio[...]

Distribute I/O Across Physical Disks Our experience has shown that physical and logical disk structures are our customers' least understood system resource, and the one most often undersized . The best way to boost performance on many Domino servers is to distribute I/O across separate physical disk subsystems. Ideally, you want to put the fol[...]

Ÿ For partitioned systems, you will need to ensure the NSF Buffer Pool is properly set since Domino cannot automatically determine the memory that’s actually available to it across multiple partitions. This can be accomplished by placing the following variable in the notes.ini file: PercentAvailSysResources= nn (where nn is 100 / number of parti[...]

additional users probably won't be equivalent to the resources required for an equal number of your current users. For example, per-user memory requirements decrease as the number of users increases, because fixed memory overhead is divided across more users. Consider Clustering Clustering is the premier feature of the Domino Enterprise Server[...]

Sizing Guide lines Disclaimer: System sizing for applications can only be described from a general perspective . Definitive characteristics of application implementation and behavior on specific hardware will yield different sizing requirements. Use syste m sizing tools when available for your specific environment. Domino on AIX: S everal factors s[...]

Installation requires training and performance tuning. This section discusses items that are important to the installation pr[...]

Network: Ÿ Network equipment (hubs, switches, routers, firewalls) Ÿ Network diagram Ÿ WAN diagram Ÿ Bandwidth capacity Next , you will probably want to conduct a detailed inventory of the server equipment and all related equipment. The list below contains some items that you should include in your inventory. Since every environment is different[...]

connectivity maps, and a list of possible errors that they or end users may encounter during the installation project and how to resolve them. After an initial course, it is highly reco mmended that each administrator and support staff member receive full training on Domino R5. They shou ld learn how to use the end user interface, administrator int[...]

5. Document Experiences, Problems, and Solutions From the Pilot Project The most impor tant item of the pilo t project is the documentation of the administrator’s and end users’ feedback. It is vital that feedback be gathered from the very beginning all the way through the end of the pilot project. Feedback should be shared by conducting meetin[...]

Ÿ Document issues encountered and their solutions Ÿ Coordinate communication, including project databases, meetings, and conference calls Set responsibilities and designate who performs which functions and at wh at times. Ensure that there is a contact person for each role and responsibility -- this person should be one of the members of the inst[...]

Installation Steps Before install ing a Lotus Domino R5 Server , cert ain software, hardware and system requirements must be met and the AIX environment must be prepared . Step by step instructions are provided here to assist in the correct installation of the Lotus Domino Server software. If you want to see these instructions with screen shots, pl[...]

These daemons must be stopped in order to free up certain network ports that the Domino Server will need. In order to check to see if you have any of these daemons running, use the command ps -ef | grep <daemon name> . If the daemons are not running, then please skip to step 6. The easiest daemon to stop is sendmail . Although the Domino R5 i[...]
