Re: Help - Where to find someone who can do remote support for Notes / Domino??

There's also a subdirectory called IBM_TECHNICAL_SUPPORT. The various
console*.log files may give you a clue on what's wrong. If it's
complaining about some Domino database or another being corrupted let us
know. There are ways of running offline compact/fixup/updall to address
those issues.
WRKDOMSVR
12=Work object links
...NOTES/DATA/IBM_TECHNICAL_SUPPORT
5=Display
There's also a domino400 list at this site. But it has been way too quiet.

Ok, I was kind of busy this weekend.
Domino can sometimes leave things called "semaphores" and "shared memory
segments" hanging around. If you have the library DLTDOMSMEM you can try
two commands:
Command Library Text
DLTDOMSEM DLTDOMSMEM Delete Domino semaphore
DLTDOMSMEM DLTDOMSMEM Delete Domino shared memory
You can google search for this library if you do not have it.
In the Domino server document, on the Basics tab, Automatic Server
Recovery section there is a Maximum Fault Limits, like 3 faults in 5
minutes. After that you'll get the message you are seeing.
An IPL does a fine job of clearing out semaphores and shared memory
segments.
The old Navigator used to have a gui for seeing semaphores and shared
memory segments but IBM determined that real programmers, at least those
who deal with such things, do not suffer GUI readily. I used to know how
to dump these using qsHell commands...

I have a client who is a long time IBM-Midrange user.



They have gone the entire path from S/36 to AS/400 to Iseries and now to
Ibmi



They have also decided to run every single thing on their own server that
sits nicely in a rack.



That includes running their own email server using Notes/Domino despite
the
fact that they only have about a dozen users.



My task is mainly to support their ERP package and I know basically
nothing
about the Notes/Domino environment.



Normally that is fine too but whenever there is a problem it is just a
load
of problems to find any help at all.



Today the notes server refuses to start ("STRDOMSVR"). Found something on
DSPDOMSVR which says ("too many crashes"). Do not know what to do next.



I have heard that there are highly skilled consultants that take on
Notes/Domino support but have to start looking for them.



Any ideas??
