Most of the run time parameters for the Sms4Domino software are specified in Lotus Notes®
documents in the configuration database. However, when Sms4Domino is started, it must know
where to find the configuration database.
This is achieved by two mandatory notes.ini settings. When Sms4Domino is running as a server
add-in the notes.ini of the server must be modified. When Sms4Domino is running as a stand-alone
program the notes.ini of the Notes client must be modified.
The notes.ini of the Domino server may be modified by editing the file directly . However, it is
recommended to specify the settings in a configuration document in the Domino directory. The
notes.ini of a workstation is edited using a plain text editor like Notepad .
The list of available notes.ini parameters is specified in following table . The parameters are not
case-sensitive. Some of the parameters are mandatory !
Parameter
ParameterParameter
Parameter Purpose
PurposePurpose
Purpose
Sms4DominoConfigDB This parameter specifies the location of the Sms4Domino configuration
database. This database resides in the Domino data directory or one its
subdirectories.
The parameter must be specified as a relative file name. The
parameter is case sensitive on some platforms (e.g. Unix)
Example :
Sms4DominoConfigDB=Sms4Domino\configdb.nsf
Default value: sms4Dcfg.nsf
Sms4DominoServer This parameter specifies the hierarchical name of the Domino server
where the configuration database resides.
In case the parameter is not specified the filter assumes the database
resides on the current server.
Example :
Sms4DominoServer=Acme/SVR/Comp
Validation of the license file is only possible if the configuration
database is located on a Domino server.
Sms4DominoInstanceID Every running Sms4Domino program must be identified by a unique
hierarchical name: the instance ID. This name is used in most of the
configuration documents.
By default - when this parameter is not part of the notes.ini file - the
instance ID is the same as the hierarchical Domino server name that
holds the configuration database.
Example:
Sms4DominoInstanceId=Acme/SVR/Comp
Sms4DominoConsoleWidth
Sms4DominoConsoleHeig
ht
These two parameters are only used when Sms4Domino is running as a
stand-alone program. They define the width and height, expressed in
pixels, of the console used for logging and entering commands.
The open console may be resized by the Windows user. When
Sms4Domino is stopped the current console size is saved into these
two environment variables.
Example :
Sms4DominoConsoleWidth=1000
