To install and configure Domino®, you must sign on to the system with a user profile that has the required authorities. To install the Domino® software, your user profile must have the following special authorities:

  • All object access (*ALLOBJ)
  • Security administration (*SECADM)

To configure a Domino® server, your user profile must have the following special authorities:

Checking your user profile using commands

About this task

The system security officer has the required authorities to install and configure Domino®. If you are not the security officer, use the Display User Profile (DSPUSRPRF) command to determine if your user profile has the required authorities.

If your user profile does not have the required authorities, ask the security officer to either do the installation and configuration or to add the required authorities to your user profile.

To check your user profile, follow these steps:

Procedure

  1. At any command prompt, type the following command and then press Enter:
    DSPUSRPRF user-id

    where user-id is the name of your user profile.

  2. Press the PAGE DOWN key and locate the special authority field to display the special authorities for the user profile.

    If your user profile does not have the required authorities, ask the security officer to either do the installation and configuration or to add the required authorities to your user profile.

Installing the Domino® server on IBM® i and configuring the server after install

About this task

There are several ways you can begin the installation of the Domino® software. Each way provides a slightly different experience, but all accomplish the same tasks. You can install the Domino® software using any of the following methods:

  • Run the OS400Install.exe file. This method allows the product media to be located in either the workstation or the optical drive of the IBM® i system.
  • Use RSTLICPGM commands to install each option from saved files.

After you complete the installation, you can configure a new Domino® server by launching the Domino® Server Setup wizard (domwzd.bat) on a workstation that has Microsoft™ Windows™ installed or use the CFGDOMSVR command on the IBM® i system. To upgrade a Domino® server to the new release, use the UPDDOMSVR command.

Enabling Tika for full-text searching of attachments on IBM i

About this task

In HCL Domino for IBM i, if you want to include attachments in the full-text index, you must complete the following steps.

Procedure

  1. To run the TikaServerAddin server task, do either of the following steps:
    • Run this command:
      load runjava TikaServerAddin
    • Run the task automatically when you start Domino by adding the following to the ServerTasks line in the notes.ini:

      SERVERTASKS=Replica,Router,Update,AMgr,Adminp,Sched,CalConn,RnRMgr,HTTP,IMAP,LDAP,POP3,runjava TikaServerAddin

      Note: If you already use runjava for another Java class, like ISpy, the SERVERTASKS line would change to this:

      SERVERTASKS=Replica,Router,Update,AMgr,Adminp,Sched,CalConn,RnRMgr,HTTP,IMAP,LDAP,POP3,runjava ISpy, runjava TikaServerAddin

  2. Rebuild the full-text index, which will index attachments as well.
