Configuring
Use this information to configure an IBM® Domino® network, users, servers (including Web servers), directory services, security, messaging, widgets and live text, and server clusters. Also use this information to set up IBM iNotes® on a server using Domino Off-Line Services (DOLS).
Configuring users and servers
Topics in this section describe how to set up users and servers.
Calendars and scheduling
The calendar and scheduling features allow users to check the free time of other users, schedule meetings with them, and reserve resources, such as conference rooms and equipment.
Setting up the Resource Reservations database
The Resource Reservations database is where users schedule and manage meeting resources. Resources may include conference rooms and equipment, such as overhead projectors and video machines. Users can select a particular resource and reserve a time for it, or they can choose a time and let the Resource Reservations database display resources available during that time.
Enabling agents in the Resource Reservations database
The Resource Reservations database requires four agents to be enabled for proper Rooms and Resource functionality.

IBM® Domino 10.0.1 Documentation
Welcome to the IBM® Domino 10.0.1 Administrator Help.
- What's new in IBM® Domino® 10?
  Learn about all of the new features for administrators in IBM® Domino® 10.
- Overview
  Welcome to IBM® Domino® Administrator Help.
- Installing
  Use this documentation to install the IBM® Domino® server and subsequently deploy the IBM Notes® client.
- Planning
  Use this topic as an overview of planning task.
- Configuring
  Use this information to configure an IBM® Domino® network, users, servers (including Web servers), directory services, security, messaging, widgets and live text, and server clusters. Also use this information to set up IBM iNotes® on a server using Domino Off-Line Services (DOLS).
  - Configuring a network
    This section presents the planning concepts and setup procedures necessary for a successful IBM® Domino® deployment over a network. It provides information on network protocols from a Domino perspective but does not attempt to provide general network information.
  - Configuring users and servers
    Topics in this section describe how to set up users and servers.
    - Understanding the Server document
      The Server document is set up when you register a server. It contains many of the settings that define how your server operates.
    - Policies
      Use Domino® policy settings to control how users work with Notes®. A policy is a document that identifies a collection of individual policy settings. Policy settings documents define a set of defaults that apply to the users and groups to which the policy is assigned. You can change policy settings and they will be automatically applied to the assigned users and groups.
    - Defining default settings for Notes® user registration
      Before you register new Notes® users, you can specify default settings that apply to all users. Default settings simplify user registration and ensure user settings consistency. You can define many default settings, such as what mail server users have or what certifier ID to use for user registration. You can also specify a default workstation execution control list (ECL) to protect data from unauthorized workstation access.
    - Managing users
      The Administration Process helps you manage users by automating many of the associated administrative tasks. For example, if you rename a user, the Administration Process automates changing the name throughout databases in the Notes® domain by generating and carrying out a series of requests, which are posted in the Administration Requests database.
    - Using groups
      Groups are lists of users, groups, and servers that have common traits. They are useful for mailing lists and access control lists. Using groups can simplify administration tasks.
    - Replicas
      You can make a database available to users in different locations, on different networks, or in different time zones, by creating replicas of the database.
    - Domain Search
      Notes® client and Web users can use Domain Search to search an entire Domino® domain for database documents, files, and attachments that match a search query.
    - Calendars and scheduling
      The calendar and scheduling features allow users to check the free time of other users, schedule meetings with them, and reserve resources, such as conference rooms and equipment.
      - Setting up scheduling
        How you set up scheduling depends on where users are located -- that is, in the same Domino® domain or in different Domino domains -- and whether users use alternate scheduling applications, such as Lotus Organizer® and IBM® OfficeVision®.
      - Setting up the Resource Reservations database
        The Resource Reservations database is where users schedule and manage meeting resources. Resources may include conference rooms and equipment, such as overhead projectors and video machines. Users can select a particular resource and reserve a time for it, or they can choose a time and let the Resource Reservations database display resources available during that time.
        Enabling agents in the Resource Reservations database
        The Resource Reservations database requires four agents to be enabled for proper Rooms and Resource functionality.
      - Creating Site Profile and Resource documents
        A Site Profile document defines a particular site where a resource exists and associates that site with a Resource Reservations database and the Domino® Directory. A Resource document defines the resource name, type, and availability, and designates who can reserve the resource. You must create at least one Site Profile document before you can create Resource documents.
      - Editing and deleting Resource documents
        After you create a Resource document, the information that you can change includes the Availability Settings, Description, Capacity, Online resource data, Other Comments, and Ownership Options fields. To change any other information about the resource, you must delete the Resource document and then create a new one containing the new information.
      - Setting user access rights to edit and delete reservations
        Reservations that are created manually or with Calendaring and Scheduling can be edited by Notes® client users or Web browser users who have the necessary access in the database ACL of the Resource Reservations database.
      - Managing automatic notices to owners of rooms or resources
        The owner of a room/resource document receives a variety of notices by default, some of them repeated many times until action is taken. As the Domino® administrator, you can help control the number of additional notices (the first such notice is always sent) in the Owner options section of the Resource document.
      - Creating Holiday documents
        Holiday documents provide a way for your organization to have a centrally managed collection of documents that contain information on scheduled holidays and events. Users select the type of Holiday documents to import and add the information to their personal calendars.
      - Collecting detailed information from user calendars
        You can make detail information from users' calendars available to other users. When you set up this feature, you specify which calendar details are made available for viewing by other users.
      - Improving interoperability for users of calendars in email applications other than Notes®
        Compatibility mode, client detection, and domain mapping are features that can significantly improve interoperability between users of Notes® calendars and users of other calendars in your organization. Compatibility mode ensures against data loss in repeating meetings for users of non-Notes email applications who exchange invitations with Notes users. Client detection and domain mapping allow the Domino® administrator, through the mail policy, to associate email applications with domains in the organization and specify interoperability of calendar features for the applications.
      - Importing and exporting calendars from iCalendar
        You can import and export iCalendar-based calendars to and from Notes®. iCalendar is an Internet standard that allows calendars created in different calendar products to be imported into, and then viewed and managed in other calendar products that use the iCalendar standard. The iCalendar standard also allows for the sending and receiving of meeting requests and other tasks over email.
      - Designating the Out of Office service type
        Specify an Out of Office service type according to whether a server cluster is comprised of Domino® 8 servers, pre-Domino 8 servers, or a combination of both. There are two Out of Office service types, Service and Agent. Use the Out of Office Service for clusters comprised of Domino 8 servers; use the Out of Office Agent for clusters that contain any pre-Domino 8 servers.
    - Configuring Widgets and Live Text
      Widgets and Live Text enables end users to see and act on Live Text in supported documents, including IBM® Notes® mail, using XML extensions (widgets) created specifically for their use.
  - Editing the NOTES.INI file
    You should rarely, if ever, need to modify a server's or client's NOTES.INI file. The NOTES.INI file contains many settings that Domino® and Notes® rely on to work properly. An accidental or incorrect change may cause Domino or Notes to run unpredictably. Therefore, you should edit the NOTES.INI file only if special circumstances occur or if IBM® Support Services recommends that you do so.
  - Configuring directory services
    This section describes how to plan, set up, and use IBM® Domino® directory services.
  - Configuring messaging
    This section provides an overview of messaging and describes how to set up mail routing, how to set up and customize mail servers, and how to track mail.
  - Configuring iNotes®
    IBM® iNotes® (previously IBM Domino® Web Access) provides IBM Notes® users with browser-based access to Notes mail and to Notes calendar and scheduling features. Administrators specify mail policy and security policy settings as well as notes.ini file settings to complete the full implementation of IBM iNotes.
  - Configuring Web servers
    This section describes how to set up the IBM® Domino® Web server, the Domino Web Navigator, and other Web servers such as IBM HTTP.
  - Setting up a cluster
    Setting up a cluster includes the tasks of creating and verifying that it is working correctly, and then setting up user access, mail, replications, size quotas, directory assistance, roaming, web navigation, and use of a private LAN in the cluster.
- Securing
  This section describes IBM® Domino® security features, including execution control lists, IDs, and SSL.
- Administering
  This documentation provides information about the administration tools for managing and monitoring IBM Domino® servers and databases.
- Tuning
  Use this information to improve IBM® Domino® server, Domino Web server, and messaging performance through the use of resource balancing and activity trends, Server.Load commands, advanced database properties, cluster statistics, and the Server Health Monitor.
- Troubleshooting
  This section describes how to find and solve problems with IBM® Domino® server and Administrator client.
