IBM® Domino 10.0.1 Documentation
Welcome to the IBM® Domino 10.0.1 Administrator Help.
Installing
Use this documentation to install the IBM® Domino® server and subsequently deploy the IBM Notes® client.
Upgrading
Use this documentation to upgrade the existing Domino® server and subsequently upgrade the Notes® client to a new release. You can also upgrade additional clients such as Domino Administrator and Domino Designer clients and additional features and plug-ins such as the embedded IBM® Sametime® client.
Upgrading Notes® clients
You can push an upgrade to Notes® clients using Notes Smart Upgrade or other third party mechanism, Smart Upgrade Run-As wizard (SURUNAS), or Upgrade-by-mail. You can also upgrade Notes clients using the Notes installation executable either silently (command line) or using the installer's graphical user interface. The supplied installation executable is used for an initial install or an upgrade install.
Using Notes® Smart Upgrade
IBM® Notes® Smart Upgrade is a administrative tool for pushing Notes client upgrades to users. Smart Upgrade notifies users to upgrade their Notes clients by a stated date and simplifies the upgrade process by essentially performing the upgrade the task with little or no user intervention.
Understanding the Smart Upgrade timer
This topic explains the behavior of the Smart Upgrade timer.
Specifying an Allclient or Notes-only kit for Smart Upgrade
Smart Upgrade contains the Smart Upgrade kit recognition feature. For Windows™, Smart Upgrade can determine whether to install a Notes® client-only kit or an Allclients kit for each user. The Allclient kit is only available for a single user install, not a multi-user install.

Specifying an Allclient or Notes-only kit for Smart Upgrade

Smart Upgrade contains the Smart Upgrade kit recognition feature. For Windows™, Smart Upgrade can determine whether to install a Notes® client-only kit or an Allclients kit for each user. The Allclient kit is only available for a single user install, not a multi-user install.

The Notes installer sets the value of the InstallType= setting in the NOTES.INI file each time upgrade is performed. Smart Upgrade compares the Install Type value in the Smart Upgrade kit document to the InstallType field in the NOTES.INI file and installs the upgrade kit that matches the Install Type specified in the NOTES.INI file.

Smart Upgrade recognition upgrades one install type, for example, Notes client only to a newer release of the same install type. You cannot use Smart Upgrade to install a Notes client only install and then use it later to perform an All clients install for the same user on the same computer.

The following values can be used with the NOTES.INI setting InstallType=

InstallType=2 -- Allclient install (not available for Linux™ or Mac OS)
InstallType=6 -- Notes client only install
