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.
  - Integrating Link with HCL Volt

Troubleshooting HCL Link integration

If your Link catalogs are not appearing within Volt, try the following procedures:

Verify that you have all three Volt Config settings (hclLinkIntegrationEnabled, hclLinkIntegrationServerURL, hclLinkIntegrationServiceCredentialAlias).
Verify that the username and password in your credential alias is correct.
You may need to install the trusted root certificate for the SSL cert that was used to secure your Link server.

Try starting Domino using the console (instead of windows service), or increasing the log level, so that you can see the start-up messages like:

Running scheduled task for detecting HCL Link service description changes...

Refreshing list of Link Catalogs...

Token request response code: 200

Registering Link Catalog (id= 60a445a68f331f240bfea025, name=Excel)

Finished scheduled task for detecting HCL Link service description changes...

Set the trace string (com.ibm.form.nitro.service.*=finest), reproduce the behavior, and then check the trace log.
Make sure Link is not running as a Windows service. It is recommended to start and stop the server using the provided scripts in the DesignServer directory. Try restarting Link using the scripts.

Note: You must run the commands from a command window running as administrator.
If the catalogs are still not appearing, contact Support.
