Administering Volt
The following topics contain information for HCL Domino Volt admins.
- Controlling who creates HCL Volt applications
  To configure who can create and delete applications, you need to modify the Access Control List (ACL) for VoltBuilder.nsf.
- Volt configuration settings
  Volt configuration settings are in VoltConfig.nsf in the volt folder of your Domino data directory (volt/VoltConfig.nsf). Use the Notes client or the Domino Administrator client to modify a configuration setting.
- Core Domino server configuration
  HCL Domino Volt is an add-on to the core HCL Domino server. Volt runs in the context of the Domino web server (HTTP process). Therefore, Volt is affected by the underlying Domino server configuration. This topic covers some of the core configuration settings that may affect Volt.
- Upgrading from prior releases
  Beginning with Volt 1.0.2, all Volt NSF files set the database property Don't Maintain Unread Marks as default, which should improve performance. NSF files created in prior versions of Volt are not changed.
- Adding a custom theme
- Volt Cleanup process
  Volt Cleanup primarily purges orphaned Builder attachments, orphaned application attachments, and old Preview databases. Prior to release 1.0.3, this process was done by the Volt Cleanup Agent.
- Enabling basic authentication for HCL Volt API requests
  If form-based authentication is enabled, you will see an HTML form for authentication instead of a pop-up window. This topic provides instructions on how to disable HTML form-based authentication for the HCL Volt server API URL paths and enable basic authentication.
- Securing your Volt deployment
- HCL Link integration
  HCL Link provides a platform for data and application integration.
  - HCL Link installation and administration
    The following topics describe how to install and configure Link for use with Domino Volt.
    - Windows installation
      The following topics describe how to install HCL Link on Windows.
    - Linux installation
      The following topics describe how to install Link for use with Domino Volt.
    - Configuring Link
      - Defining the Runtime server
      - Defining the Domino Volt project in Link
        A project must be created in Link to hold the connection and action definitions.
    - Defining Link artifacts
      To use Link with Domino Volt, you must define connections to the resources you want to access, and then actions that define an operation that uses a connection.

Defining the Runtime server

About this task

When you define an action in Link, it deploys to the Link runtime server. For this to occur, the deployment function looks at the Link server list to find the "HCH Runtime" server and uses this definition to deploy the action to. This mechanism allows the runtime to be hosted on a different server from the Link user interface.

Note: This procedure is required.

To define the server, complete the following steps:

Procedure

Access the Link server page using this URL: https://<host>/server. If you are not logged in, you will be directed to the login page. After logging in as an administrator, access the URL again.
Click on the + icon to define a server:
Specify the following properties:
- Name - This must be named "HCH Runtime".
- Type - Select Web.
- Base URL - Specify the URL as http://<hostname>:8080/hip-rest. If SSL is configured on the runtime server, change the scheme to http and specify the SSL port.
To ensure the server can be accessed, click Test.
To save the server definition, click Add.
