Using wildcard syntax remove the files from the expanded update site directory.
Create a new "updateSite.zip" file by zipping the expanded update site directory making sure to
include all subdirectories. You must preserve the existing directory structures.
Note: The resulting .zip file must include "site.xml" at the root of the updateSite.zip and must not
include a directory at the top level.
Copy the deploy\install.xml file to a backup file such as installsave.xml.
Open the deploy\install.xml file with a text or XML editor.
Locate the ID of the feature you removed above by searching for the Feature ID listed below:
Feature name Feature ID
Lotus Symphony Editors -- expressed in the installfeature
statement as id="Editors"
Sametime SametimeUI --expressed in the installfeature
statement as id="SametimeUI"
Composite Application Editor CAE -- expressed in the installfeature
statement as id="CAE”
From the point in the file where the featureID was found, look backward in the file for the start of the
feature definition which starts with "<installfeature ...".
Insert a blank line on the line BEFORE the line that starts with "<installfeature ...".
Type "<!-- <enter>" on the blank line (omit the quotes -- <enter> means press the "Enter" key to
end the line).
Insert a blank line at the end of the feature definition -- on the line AFTER "</installfeature>".
Type "--> <enter>" on the blank line (omit the quotes -- <enter> means press the "enter" key to end
the line).
Save the file.
As of Notes 8.5.1, validate the customized install kit.
For information, see "Validating your customized Notes install kit".
If you are customizing the kit to remove Lotus Symphony, create a transform that turns off the
Editors feature and include that in the Notes install kit.
Perform a test installation to be sure that the kit functions correctly.
