How HP EAs Domino works with your current system and

configuration

• Clustering does not affect EAs Domino.

• Partitioni

ng has no affect on EAs Domino.

• Shared ma il has no effect on EAs Domino.

• A replica of your Domino Directory(ies) is installed on the HP gateway server(s) and is modified

during the DAS process (synchronization of user information with the IAP) . EAs D om ino does not

update the Domino Directory itself.

• Any mail t

emplate that is supplied by Lotus is functional with EAs Domino. Customized mail

templates that add functionality to the standard Lotus mail template can be a problem. Any

customizations that re-save a message or remove or alter data values, data t ypes, or standard

design e

lements are likely to cause problems in Lotus Notes and Domino, and will also cause

problems in EAs Domino.

Pre-installation tasks

Before the HP EAs Dom i no soft ware installation begins, you will work with the HP service representative to:

• Install Windows software on the HP gate way server(s).

• Install Domino server software on the HP gateway servers.

• Install Lotus Notes administrator and designer clients on the gateway servers.

As Domino administrator, you must also do the following:

• Generate a server ID for each gateway server using your company’s certifier.

HP recommends that you create a special organizational unit certifier to generate the ID.

For example: /ou=hparchive/o=acm e where hparchive is the organizational unit within the

organization acme.

If there were two gateway servers, you would need two server IDs. For example:

gateway1/hparchive/acme; gateway2/hparchive/acme.

• Using the same organizational unit certifier, create a gateway administrator ID. For example:

hpadmin/hparchive/acme.

• Set security in the server document for e ach gateway server, in conformance with your

organization’s site standards. This includes ensuring that agent signing IDs (or the gateway

administrator) have appropriate access.

• Perform cross-certification of the gateway server ID(s) with the m ail servers being mined.

• ConfigureDominoWebAccess(iNotes)ifyouplantoimplementtheHPEAsDominoDWA
