Creating a Name Change task
Create a name change task on the IBM® Sametime® Community server.
Before you begin
About this task
A name change task is not actually a scheduled program; its timestamp merely indicates when the task was created and not when it will be run. The list of tasks is ignored until you run the stnamechange.cmd program, which then operates on all of the tasks in the list, using the .CSV files specified in the Name Change page.
Follow these steps to create a name change task.
Procedure
Results
After you have completed these steps on one Sametime Community server, it is necessary to repeat this process on other servers in distributed environment.
When you are finished configuring the task, name changes are saved to the stnamechange.nsf file. For a clustered environment, create this task on one server per cluster. All other servers receive the changes through the cluster replication process.
Domino® picks up all valid name change tasks in the stnamechange.nsf file. You choose the servers or cluster on which the name change task runs on a regular basis using general scheduling tools. The application does not run by default; you must run the task manually.
Remove all irrelevant CSV tasks from stnamechange.nsf before running the stnamechange.cmd program. This ensures that only tasks you want to run are included when you run the program. To delete a name change task, on the Name Change page, select the task, and then click Delete. If any name changes are entered incorrectly, you can import a new CSV file.
