Client upgrades will be hotfix/CCH/FP savvy starting with 8.5.1

Hooray.  No more worries about manually downgrading clients before upgrading.  That is to say, the client installer will is supposed to remove any previous obsolete fix as part of the upgrade process.
Can we have that for Domino now, too?  Pretty please.

Using 'Set Config' to update ini parameters already specified a server's config doc

David Brown |   | Tags:  update set console config configuration ini server | Comments (0)  |  Visits (380)

Here's a slick little console command you can use to quickly force a value change for an ini setting that already exists in a server's config doc.

All threads are not created equal

Thank goodness the days of single threaded Admin client initiated tasks are a long gone relic.  Oy!  Just put a [red] stapler on top of the left mouse button and go to lunch.  ; )
.
This one left me scratching my head, though.
.
This is a set of concurrent requests on 3 separate servers.  No, there's not even a remote chance that each server just happens to have the same number of databases for processing.
.
At any rate... 4633/3671 != 96%
Not on this planet, anyway.

The Mail Quota Indicator doth protest too much, methinks

David Brown |   | Tags:  warning threshold quota thermometer | Comments (1)  |  Visits (420)
 .
If you choose to impose mail database quotas (btw, doing so probably isn't going to solve the issue you are trying to address, imho) AND also utilize the Mail Quota Status thermometer (introduced in 8.0.1), ensure that you also set a warning threshold.  Without a warning threshold set, the database is considered to be at "Warning" level straight out of the gates.  It seems like a couple more lines of lines in the feature code could check if the warning is not set so as to avoid this issue.  Oh well.
.
That little tidbit is mentioned here and still applies as of 8.5 client, template, and server combo.  I'll have fries with that.

A link to Excelling at Notes

David Brown |   | Tags:  export excel hyperlink | Comments (1)  |  Visits (411)
.
I've been an Excel (actually, it was initially Lotus 1-2-3) junkie ever since my first data analyst job.
.
If you happen to be working in Excel with, for instance, exported mail database application server and file path info, here's a way that you use that information to generate a hyperlink that will open the database application in Notes.

The concatenate formula in A2:
  • prepends notes://
  • extracts all text to the left of the first forward slash in cell C2 (now you have the server's common name) and inserts it in the string (in this case, you'll need a way for that name to be resolved in hosts or DNS)
  • inserts a forward slash to indicate the file name is coming next
  • inserts the filename (the value of E2)
  • appends ".nsf" (if .nsf happens to be in all your mail file paths, you can leave that part off.  if you have a mix (some with, some without extensions, use a "text to columns" action to separate the file name from it's extension (specify a period as the delimiter))
.
TIP:  You'll probably want to disable Excel's hyperlink warning message if you are going to be clicking on more than a few links in your spreadsheet.
