Enable\Disable policy regarding Auto Save chats

The ability to automatically save chats on the client does not have a corresponding user interface on the

administrator pages. The default is TRUE meaning, by default, all users who use 7.5 Connect will have

their chats saved automatically.

If the administrator wants to force a value for this attribute on some of the policies they have defined, they

need to follow the below steps:

Example - Auto Save the chat history attribute

Open

stpolicy.nsf

Select the policy document that you want to update

Switch to Edit Mode (double-click on the document form).

Find the "Auto save chat history" attribute (ID = 2004) and update the attribute value.

Update the Selector field value, if required:

- If this is the default policy set, and the administrator wants to override this attribute in all users'

policies, then the value of the "selector" field should be set to 2.

- If this is a specific policy set, and the administrator wants automatically saved chats to inherit the

value of the "Auto Save chat" attribute from the default policy, and to be affected from any change of

the value on the default policy, then the value of the "selector" field should be set to 1.

- The default value of the "selector" field is 0, which means that the value in the policy definition is the

effective value.

Save the document.

Repeat steps 2-6 for all the policy documents that you want to update.

stpolicy.nsf

and restart the ST Policy service.

On i5/OS (iSeries) some DBCS usernames may not log in correctly

Using i5/OS (iSeries), a user with DBCS characters in the user name may not log in correctly.

Workaround

Run the "tell adminp process" command in from the Domino console. Note that some DBCS user names

are still not able to log in after running this command, for example, 󰞻, 󰫘, 󰩔.

Policy Assign Users incorrectly says to select a directory

The Policy Assign Users page incorrectly says to select a directory to add people / groups. The Policy

Assign Users applet searches all directories that are configured for Sametime.

Policy Assign Users pages does not detect Java VM

When accessing the Policy Assign Users page, a supported Java VM is required. The page does not

correctly detect whether a supported JVM is installed.
