Creating an ID vault
The ID Vault tool enables you to perform all of the steps necessary to make a vault operational. However you can choose to perform some of the required steps at a later time using another tool.
About this task
A vault database is created in the \IBM_ID_VAULT directory in the IBM® Domino® server data directory. Creating a vault requires administrator and Create databases and templates access to the server on which you create it, and Editor access to the Domino Directory.
When you create a vault, an associated vault document is also created in the
view of the Domino Directory. The document shows the vault name, description, vault administrators, and vault servers (servers with replicas). Note that you can add vault servers using the tool after the vault is created.Note: The
vault document and other vault-related documents in the Domino Directory
are created and modified on the Domino Directory administration server.
If you create an ID vault on a different server, those documents are
not added to it until they have replicated from the Domino Directory
administration server.
