Domino server

Lotus Domino 6.5 improvements include new platform support, serviceability

enhancements, performance improvements, and single sign-on changes.

New platform support

Domino 6.5 support the Linux on zSeries (S390) and Windows Server 2003 platforms. In
addition, Domino 6.5 support for the Mozilla 1.3.1 browser on Linux makes it possible
for complete deployment of your messaging system on Linux.

Serviceability enhancements

Lotus Domino 6.5 improves serviceability with the following enhancements:

• Unified Fault Recovery/Cleanup Scripts interface

From a Server document, you can enable and disable NSD to collect diagnostic
data, Server restarts, and specific Cleanup Scripts.
• Free-running Memcheck to validate in-memory data structures
Memcheck can now lock memory pools when executed, so no additional errors
are reported during memory validation.
• Timestamps in SEMDEBUG.TXT
Semaphore management adds timestamps to SEMDEBUG.TXT to compare time-
outs with events in the server log.
• Log Name/ThreadID of HTTP Agent at Runtime
• Collection/recording of basic system and server data at startup
Now you can collect system and server data at startup to check for server or client
changes.

Performance improvements

Domino 6.5 offers improved performance with the following enhancements:

• New Server.Load workloads

Server.Load for Domino 6.5 includes exposed D6 workloads for Domino Web
Access, Mail, and IMAP. In addition, there is a Sun enhancement for Server.Load.
• Platform statistics for Linux
You can view, control reporting, collect, and perform other statistics-related tasks
for both the Linux and Linux on zSeries platforms just as you would for other
Domino server platforms.
• Replicate unread marks
Advanced database properties let you replicate unread marks in certain databases,
such as mail files. You can choose one of three unread mark options for
replication: Never replicate unread marks, replicate unread marks among
clustered servers only, or replicate unread marks for all servers on which there are
replicas. For more unread mark enhancements, see the section Notes client.
 Figure 1. Database Properties box - Unread Mark Options

Single sign-on enhancements

Note these two single sign-on (SSO) changes in Domino 6.5:

• The Domino 6.5 Web Server caches Internet password changes for single sign-on
users.
• In addition to the SSO fixed expiration timeout, you can configure an SSO idle
timeout to prompt users again to enter their password.

Domino for iSeries

Domino 6.5 for iSeries supports multiple versions of Domino on one partitioned machine,
so you can install Domino 6.5 on one partition and an earlier version of Domino on
another partition.

Domino for z/OS

Domino 6.5 for z/OS exploits hardware cryptography to reduce CPU rates when using
SSL, particularly with Domino Web Access.

Time to
upgrade

If you've
been thinking
about
upgrading,
we hope that
this article
has given you
a few good
reasons to
migrate to
Notes/Domin
o 6.5. If
you're
looking for
upgrade
information,
make sure to
check the
Domino
Administrato
r help. An
entire section
is devoted to
upgrading
Domino
servers,
Notes clients,
applications,
and mail
files,
including
Domino Web
Access
clients. Also,
you may
want to refer
to the IBM
Redbook,
Upgrading to
Lotus Notes
and Domino
6, which
should have
information
applicable to
Notes/Domin
o 6.5.
