Everyone should acquire a Subcapacity license along with any existing Domino Server Licenses which are indexed according to PVU.

And if you upgrade a server, prepare to start reporting how many cores are running Domino.  This might save you a lot of money.

Since the number of Cores is reported in the Server document (and kept up-to-date by the Adminp task) , this easily automated.

Want Domino / Notes Speed? Update the ODS on ALL Notes databases, templates and mail.box files Tue, Apr 10th 2012 8:28a Lars Berntrop-Bos I just enjoyed a wonderful speed up of development work on our Domino 8.5 environment, which runs on IBM i. It was done by upgrading the ODS on ALL databases, templates and mail.box files to the current ODS, 51. Here's how. A short history I've been hounding our sysadmins about lagging ODS versions for over a year, which was given renewed vigor when I got to see LS 2012 BP110 'A Performance Boost for your IBM Lotus Notes Client', by Francie Tanner & Florian Vogler of pa [read] Keywords: domino ibm lotus lotusphere notes notes client ntf ods application development server

Do not delete Perspectives in Domino Designer Wed, Apr 4th 2012 6:50a Lars Berntrop-Bos a word of warning. I found a list of perspectives in the preferences (used the search box, its in General:Perspectives.) in which you can also set the default perspective. Great! I thought. And noticed al these duplicate perspectives with no icon. To wit: multiple instances of Calendar, Mail and ToDo. Then I made the mistake of cleaning them up. And killed my Notes client (hangs in startup sequence) DO NOT DO THIS. I am now reinstalling from scratch... [read] Keywords: domino notes notes client

Serious LotusScript List bug Wed, Feb 29th 2012 2:26a Lars Berntrop-Bos To serious LotusScript programmers, the List construct in combination with custom classes is a daily staple. To find bugs in that is disconcerting... this piece of code, running on Notes 8.5.3, mysteriously adds a previously non-existing listitem attributenlijst(veldSpec.tag) with value "": call maildoc.ReplaceItemValue(veldSpec.veldnaam, attributenlijst(veldSpec.tag)) veldSpec.veldnaam is a nonempty string, veldSpec.tag is a nonempty string, attributenlijst is a List As String befor [read] Keywords: lotusscript notes bug

Re: Tuning 8.x.x standard client Tue, Nov 10th 2009 2:50p Lars Berntrop-Bos a couple of remarks:It works for other RCP apps like the Sametime client too. You should not allocate too much memory to the JVM. More than 1700 and things get flaky. I stick to 1024. Other people have warned that this must not exceed physical RAM. And you need to have ample RAM. The odd thing is Notes will crash if you set the heap too high, but if you do have ample RAM the heap is mostly in VM, not in real memory...

Tuning 8.x.x standard client Sat, Nov 7th 2009 4:24p Lars Berntrop-Bos Here's how to tune your Eclipse based 8.x.x client, also known as the standard client. As of October 12th, 2009, you want to use version 8.5.1 as it contains a lot of optimizations. And the Domino Designer upgrades to Java and LotusScript editing are really, really, really nice. For a great speed boost starting up the client and running Designer, use a trick Andrew Pollack described, and Jerome Carter substantiated. You should edit the jvm.properties file, just search the notes directory fo [read] Keywords: domino lotusscript notes application applications archive eclipse java properties
