    - Preparing for installing and setting up Domino® servers
      Installing an HCL Domino® server is the first part of deploying a server. The second part is using the Domino server setup program to configure the server.
      - Entering system commands
        Some of the procedures that follow include instructions for entering commands at the system command prompt.
      - Domino on Docker
        HCL Domino® 11.0.1 includes a Docker-compatible Red Hat Universal Base Image (UBI) of Domino that is part of your entitlement and available for download through the HCL Licensing Portal. HCL Domino 11.0.1 is pre-installed on this image, allowing you to deploy Domino servers as containers with just a few commands.
      - Domino® server installation
        The first step in deploying a Domino® server is installation, or copying the program files to the system's local drive.
      - Disabling concurrent I/O and direct I/O on Domino® servers on AIX®
        Concurrent I/O (CIO) and Direct I/O (DIO) are not supported with Domino® servers. CIO is a file system feature introduced in IBM® AIX® 5.2.0.10, also known as maintenance level 01, in the Enhanced Journaling File system (JFS2). This feature improves performance for relational databases.
      - Domino® server setup program
        The Domino® server setup program guides you through the choices you make to configure a Domino server. Setting up the first Domino server in a domain establishes a framework that consists of the Domino Directory, ID files, and documents. When you set up additional servers, you build upon this framework.
      - Domino® On-Disk Structure
        In this release, Domino® supports file format, on-disk structure (ODS) 53.
      - Using the Domino® server setup program
        The following procedures describe the ways you can use the server setup program.
        Indic language support in the Domino® server setup program
        You can change both the font and the alphabet that displays when you enter text in a field on a server setup program screen.
        Using automatic Domino® server setup on UNIX™
        Automatic server setup is a UNIX™ feature for single local Domino® servers. When automatic server setup is used for new server installations, server setup runs automatically after the server installation is complete. For server upgrades, the server is restarted automatically after the installation is complete.
        Using the Domino® server setup program locally
        After installing the Domino® server program files on a server, you can run the Domino server setup program locally by starting the server. The server setup program guides you through the setup process.
        Using the Domino® server setup program remotely
        After you install the program files for a Domino® server on a system, you can use either a client system or another Domino server to run the server setup program remotely. Running the server setup program from a Windows™ client is easier if the client has Domino Administrator installed -- to run the program from a client without Domino Administrator, you need the Java™ runtime environment plus some files from the program directory of an installed Domino server.
        Creating a server setup profile
        A server setup profile is a file that you use to quickly configure servers.
        Using a server setup profile
        You can use a server setup profile to set up a Domino server. You can use the profile from the server you are setting up or from a client system.
        Using Domino® silent server setup with a profile
        You can use a server setup profile to set up a Domino server silently without viewing the setup screens. You can do a silent setup at the server you are setting up or from a client system.
      - Understanding the Domino® server certification log
        The Domino® certification log records server certification and ID information.
      - Domino® server registration
        Before you install and set up additional servers, you must register them. In effect, registering a server adds the server to the system. The server registration process creates a Server document for the server in the Domino® Directory and creates a server ID. After registering and installing a server, you use the server setup program to obtain a copy of the Domino Directory for the new server and to set up the server to run particular services and tasks -- for example, the HTTP service, the Mail Router, and so on.
      - Optional tasks to perform after Domino® server setup
        You can perform addition tasks after server startup.
      - Starting and shutting down the Domino® server
        Start the Domino® server at the server console.
      - Starting Domino® as an application or a Windows™ service
        If you have installed Domino® as a Windows™ service, when you start the Domino server, you are prompted to specify whether to start Domino as an application or a Windows service.
      - Using instant messaging in the Domino® Directory
        The Domino® Directory is enabled for instant messaging, meaning that you can conduct an online chat directly from the Domino Directory.
      - Running the Domino-Portal integration wizard
        Use the Domino-Portal integration (DPI) wizard to configure an IBM® WebSphere® Portal server to work with your Domino-based infrastructure.
    - Uninstalling a Domino® server
      While it is not necessary to uninstall a Domino® server prior to upgrading to a new Domino release, you may want to uninstall a server.
  - Installing and upgrading Notes® clients
  - Upgrading
    Use this documentation to upgrade the existing Domino® server and subsequently upgrade the Notes® client to a new release. You can also upgrade additional clients such as Domino Administrator and Domino Designer clients and additional features and plug-ins such as the embedded HCL Sametime® client.

Using the Domino® server setup program locally

After installing the Domino® server program files on a server, you can run the Domino® server setup program locally by starting the server. The server setup program guides you through the setup process.

Note: During server setup, you can use an existing certifier ID instead of creating a new one. The certifier ID that you specify cannot have multiple passwords assigned to it. Attempting to use a certifier ID with multiple passwords generates an error message and causes server setup to halt.
