Domino installation includes HCL Verse
Verse is now installed by default on Windows, AIX, and Linux (this isn't currently available on IBM i).
If you don't want Verse installed, during the Domino installation process you can select Domino Custom Enterprise Server as the server type, and then uncheck Verse in the list of options.
Be notified of latest product versions
This opt-in feature makes administrators aware of the latest version available for Domino and Domino companion products. when any version 14 or later Domino server starts, it displays a message indicating whether the server is running the latest version of Domino and, if not, what the latest version is.
If enabled, this feature also displays information about the latest available product in the Domino Directory and on the Configuration tab of Domino Administrator.
For more information, see Setting auto-notifications for latest product info.
Install changes to be aware of
Domino install no longer supports the notes.ini in the executable directory on Windows. The installation program now puts the notes.ini in the Data directory, which is the default on partitioned install on Windows and all other platforms. On upgrade of an existing non-partitioned Windows server, install moves the notes.ini from the executable directory to the Data directory.
