AS/400 IBM Network Station: Techniques for Deployment in a WAN
Before you run the Configure Domino Server (CFGDOMSVR) command,
decide what to use for these key characteristics. These characteristics are
discussed here briefly. For more information, see
Planning the Domino
System.
8.4.1.1 Server Name
To avoid additional TCP/IP configuration, use the TCP/IP host name of your
AS/400, as the Domino server name.
Each Domino server has a unique name that is maintained in its own ID file.
Domino creates the server ID automatically during the server setup
processing.
8.4.1.2 Data Directory
The data directory contains files used by the Domino server and users of the
server. On a PC-based platform, the data directory typically has the directory
path:
x:\notes\data
The x is the drive letter. On the AS/400 system, the files are stored in the
integrated file system, which supports a directory structure similar to DOS or
Windows. To make the path easy to remember, specify a similar directory
path on the AS/400 system. For example:
/notes/data
Notice that a forward slash (/) is used to specify a path in the AS/400
integrated file system.
Each server must have its own data directory. Therefore, if you set up more
than one Domino server (partitioned servers) on your AS/400 system, use a
unique directory path for the second and subsequent servers. For example:
/servername/notes/data
The servername is the name of the second or subsequent Domino server.
If you use an existing directory as the data directory, make sure that you set
up the necessary authorities to the directory. The QNOTES user profile
must have *RWX data authority as well as *OBJEXIST and *OBJMGT object
authority to the directory. The owner of the data directory and subdirectories
must have *OBJEXIST and *OBJMGT authority to the directory.
