Welcome to the HCL Domino® 14.5 documentation.
Learn about all of the new features for administrators in HCL Domino® 14.5.
Welcome to HCL Domino® Administrator Help.
Use this documentation to install theHCL Domino® server and subsequently deploy theHCL Notes®client.
Use this topic as an overview of planning task.
This section presents the planning concepts and setup procedures necessary for a successfulHCL Domino® deployment over a network. It provides information on network protocols from a Domino perspective but does not attempt to provide general network information.
The Server document is set up when you register a server. It contains many of the settings that define how your server operates.
Use Domino® policy settings to control how users work with Notes®. A policy is a document that identifies a collection of individual policy settings. Policy settings documents define a set of defaults that apply to the users and groups to which the policy is assigned. You can change policy settings and they will be automatically applied to the assigned users and groups.
Domino 14.5 adds support for running an AI inference engine in the Domino backend.
Before you register new Notes® users, you can specify default settings that apply to all users. Default settings simplify user registration and ensure user settings consistency. You can define many default settings, such as what mail server users have or what certifier ID to use for user registration. You can also specify a default workstation execution control list (ECL) to protect data from unauthorized workstation access.
Groups are lists of users, groups, and servers that have common traits. They are useful for mailing lists and access control lists. Using groups can simplify administration tasks.
You can make a database available to users in different locations, on different networks, or in different time zones, by creating replicas of the database.
The calendar and scheduling features allow users to check the free time of other users, schedule meetings with them, and reserve resources, such as conference rooms and equipment.
The Domino and Notes notes.ini files contain the settings required for the server and client to operate correctly. If you modify or add settings in a notes.ini file, do so cautiously and never edit the file directly with a text editor.
The Domino® Directory, which some previous releases referred to as the Public Address Book or Name and Address Book, is a database that Domino creates automatically on every server. The Domino Directory is a directory of information about users, servers, and groups, as well as custom entries you may add. Registering users and servers in a domain automatically creates corresponding Person documents and Server documents in the Domino Directory for the domain. These documents contain detailed information about each user and server.
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a standard Internet protocol for searching and managing entries in a directory, where an entry has one or more attributes associated with a distinguished name. A distinguished name -- for example,cn=Phyllis Spera,ou=Sales,ou=East,o=Renovations -- is a name that identifies an entry within a directory tree.
cn=Phyllis Spera,ou=Sales,ou=East,o=Renovations
A directory entry contains information about a particular entity, or object -- for example, a person or a group -- and is associated with a distinguished name. An LDAP schema is a set of rules that define what can be stored as entries in an LDAP directory. Each LDAP directory has a default schema, which organizations can customize, or "extend," by adding elements to it. The elements of a schema are attributes, syntaxes, and object classes. LDAP directory servers provide the ability to enforce the schema to ensure that directory changes made using LDAP operations conform to it.
Domino® and Notes® provide a command-line search utility,LDAPSEARCH.EXE, that you use to search entries in any LDAP directory. The ldapsearch utility connects to a directory server and returns results that match search criteria you specify. It is available on Domino server and Notes client platforms.
Directory assistance allows a server to look up information in a directory other than a local primary Domino® Directory (NAMES.NSF).
Directory Sync allows you to sync people and group data from an external LDAP directory into the Domino® directory. Currently data from Active Directory can be synced.
A directory catalog is an optional directory database that typically contains information aggregated from multiple Domino® directories. Clients and servers can use a directory catalog to look up mail addresses and other information about the people, groups, mail-in databases, and resources throughout an organization, regardless of the number of Domino domains and Domino Directories the organization uses.
An extended access control list (ACL) is an optional directory access-control feature available for a directory created from thePUBNAMES.NTF template -- a Domino® Directory or an extended directory catalog. An extended ACL is tied to the database ACL, and you access it through the Access Control List dialog box using a Notes® or Domino Administrator client.
This section provides an overview of messaging and describes how to set up mail routing, how to set up and customize mail servers, and how to track mail.
HCL Verse providesHCL Notes® users with browser-based access toNotes mail and toNotes calendar and scheduling features. Administrators specify mail policy and security policy settings as well asnotes.ini file settings to complete the full implementation of HCL Verse.
This section describes how to set up theHCL Domino® Web server, and the Domino Web Navigator.
Setting up a cluster includes the tasks of creating and verifying that it is working correctly, and then setting up user access, mail, replications, size quotas, directory assistance, roaming, web navigation, and use of a private LAN in the cluster.
Widgets and Live Text enables end users to see and act on Live Text in supported documents, includingHCL Notes® mail, using XML extensions (widgets) created specifically for their use.
Notes® client and Web users can use Domain Search to search an entire Domino® domain for database documents, files, and attachments that match a search query.
This section describes security features, including execution control lists, IDs, and TLS.
This documentation provides information about the administration tools for HCL Domino.
Use this information to improveHCL Domino® server,Domino Web server, and messaging performance through the use of resource balancing and activity trends, advanced database properties, cluster statistics, and the Server Health Monitor.
