Copying Domino data to the Sametime 9.0.1 Community Server

Copy data used by IBM® Domino® data from the IBM Sametime® 8.5.2x Community Server to the Sametime 9.0.1 Community Server.

About this task

At a minimum, you must copy the VPUserInfo.nsf database file, which contains user storage and privacy information, such as contacts lists. You might also have customized templates or other files that you also want to retain in Sametime 9.0.1.

Procedure

  1. On the Sametime 8.5.2x Community Server, locate the VPUserInfo.nsf file in the Domino data directory.

    The location of the Domino data directory depends on the version of Domino installed on the server, and whether it was upgraded for a previous version of Domino.

  2. Copy the VPUserInfo.nsf file.
  3. If you customized data files, templates, or applications (.ntf, .mdm, .scr, .bmp, .mac, .smi, or .tbl files),copy them now.
  4. On every Sametime 9.0.1 Community Server, paste the VPUserInfo.nsf (plus any other files that you want to migrate) into the Domino data directory, overwriting any existing versions of these files.

    Copy the files to every Sametime 9 Community Server. The location of the Domino data directory might be different on the Sametime 9.0.1 Community Server than it was on the Sametime 8.5.2x Community Server.
