Instead, we saw December 17th for the one that expired yesterday, and the other showed January 21.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: verdana;&quot;&gt;The TLS cache should be auto-refreshing when it gets the new certificates, but appeared to not be doing the task.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: verdana;&quot;&gt;We reviewed the basic configuration and tried some test requests, which should have triggered a cache refresh and resolved the issue.

You probably can guess what happened next.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My inbox was very clean. Very few emails came through.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I thought I would whitelist what I needed, like bank mail, and HCL support mail (not so simple, someone at HCL should look into their SMTP issues that have them on a blacklist).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Still not getting lots of mail.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Next, I looked at what else was set in the doc and saw the verify domain lookup option was set, and rightly so as this does a great job.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg68iv0R9uyufZeKK5i1Fu0mf3oJ4FDgm7-6AxWSDlyDHD-9YdqDRlFgPlbnwO1C6SlHvxzbB_MyNQY--ES1Y0JPTZr-Q41NBXKskFCoUQHOhrZ_5s5EGYzS0fbjFFDpEmilNbuGpqFp3RjrlSfkSljLz-HvFCOYl2D2dzbZakw5FINOu0GfjfPhvOLsIvB&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;464&quot; data-original-width=&quot;407&quot; height=&quot;240&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg68iv0R9uyufZeKK5i1Fu0mf3oJ4FDgm7-6AxWSDlyDHD-9YdqDRlFgPlbnwO1C6SlHvxzbB_MyNQY--ES1Y0JPTZr-Q41NBXKskFCoUQHOhrZ_5s5EGYzS0fbjFFDpEmilNbuGpqFp3RjrlSfkSljLz-HvFCOYl2D2dzbZakw5FINOu0GfjfPhvOLsIvB&quot; width=&quot;211&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, I have learned that many organizations don&#39;t have good, clean SMTP/DKIM/SPF entries, and thus, they are getting blocked.&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sadly, I had to revert back to Log and tag to interact with customers and business partners.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Customers of mine with issues were notified, as was HCL, but if you have been playing with SMTP, something else always pops up. It needs babysitting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While my mail is more stable now, I know I lost a few entities that got the denied server message and probably will not resend anything in the future. Which is a problem as some are bills and other items of usefulness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you are a new Domino administrator be careful with how you edit your Configuration document.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2023/10/smtp-blacklisting-whitelisting-and-log.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEieiymIx2aKQGZvbhSEwhTcXrMwvdHg2qe_i8Mo5uBZmzbs5YQMQVKriJOfEeZDwC4En-wFhUDSinh7-aMdXDT4pG81SmlxmuvM1pypX7h4mttjZduPTf0w_4_kG4hr3jjNj_wTjLz-XBfQTbVgw3dkSEdpaqEyRntDg4dSojvidNGJfOElfNd5qNvu48Dv=s72-w259-h141-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-4488583290415006012</guid><pubDate>Tue, 03 Jan 2023 12:56:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2023-01-04T15:03:28.233+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">@abstract</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">column</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">computed</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Domino</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">extracting data</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">rich text field</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">view</category><title>Data Extraction Help for Rich Text Field</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Preamble:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This post is being written more for my long-term memory benefit than for its genius of development.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A customer wanted to export their data from an NSF to import into Salesforce.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They thought they could just export the view.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sure, if the view had all the data, which of course, it did not.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thus how it ends up in my inbox.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Action:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I created a view and proceeded to add a column for each field in their form.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;No problem, done this many times.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When I verified the data before giving it to them, I found it was missing one field.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For unknown reasons, one can not see rich text in a view column even when specifying the field. Oh, and you can&#39;t specify a rich text field, either.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Developer friends are shaking their heads, they understand, but us admins, we figure it should just work, right?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Work Around Solution:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;UPDATED EDIT: &lt;/b&gt;Thomas, in the comments pointed out, rightly so, that &lt;b&gt;&quot;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #20124d; font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Rich Text items can contain not only formatted texts, but tables, images, file attachments and more. But the abstract item will only contain the unformatted text.&quot;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #20124d; font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;, Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;In this case, my client only has some textual notes in the field, but if they had other items, you should seek a proper developers help.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is what I did after mentioning it in the openntf.org Discord chat, where I learned about the @abstract formula.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I used Jake&#39;s blog post, from 2001,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.codestore.net/store.nsf/unid/DFOU-4PRG73?OpenDocument&quot;&gt;http://www.codestore.net/store.nsf/unid/DFOU-4PRG73?OpenDocument&lt;/a&gt;,&amp;nbsp;as the guide. But that was only one part of the story, and I had to fix the code.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span face=&quot;Verdana, &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 14.4px;&quot;&gt;Jake wrote: First thing to do is to create a Computed field, of type Text, and call it something like &quot;Abstract&quot;. The formula for this will be somthing like :&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Verdana, &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14.4px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Formula&quot; face=&quot;Verdana, &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif&quot; style=&quot;background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; font-size: 14.4px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;@If(@IsAvailable(name_of_the_rt_field); @Abstract( [Abbrev]; 200; &quot;&quot;; &quot;name_of_the_rt_field&quot;);&quot;&quot; )&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jake included a * at the end of the formula. My designer client balked at it, so I removed it, and it accepted the code as shown above.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I added a field to the original form, called it Abstract, and set it to type Text and Computed field.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then entered the formula, substituting the name of my Rich text field, where Jake wrote name_of_the_rt_field.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I also changed the 200 to 2,000, so I could get all the text in the field.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Saved it all, refreshed my view, and ..... nothing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;2nd Part Work Around Solution:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Further Googling found that the rich text field would only show up now if it was resaved.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I tested this, and sure enough, I resaved a form and magic, the rich text was shown in my view.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Great, but, I can&#39;t re-edit all 1,500 documents, nor know even if they have anything in the rich text field without opening it, so what do I do?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I asked &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/kalechi&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Bruce Lill&lt;/a&gt; what he uses, and he said to create an agent, with a Forumla and a target set to none.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The formula to include is @Command([ToolsRefreshSelectedDocs])&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And after saving it, selected a few forms and ran the agent, and now the rich text shows up.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And I can give the client their data for importing into Salesforce.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Domino developers have dealt with this for many years and created workarounds for it. Admins have just lived in pure ignorance all this time about this issue.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2023/01/data-extraction-help-for-rich-text-field.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><thr:total>4</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-727374074010800267</guid><pubDate>Fri, 18 Nov 2022 09:00:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2022-11-18T14:11:33.800+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">&quot;keith brooks&quot;</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">#dominoforever</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">#hcl</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">12.0.2.</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">64-bit client</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Domino</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">HCL Notes</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">installer</category><title>Welcome to 12.0.2, Please Uninstall Your 32-bit Notes Client Edition</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjWgYSP_ADzrYwW_0_U0H4VG-kedieghpvHElssUl8tooFsAvAojQFI47V0X4JxYm6A1cHpA8tSWbrFyov8wZUId7Q6aZKAyaBFRe6qbY77WBDtbSAVC4LehXYCBn3MjcUW2Ovj2H55eSp8QfDGrk1yoAMNoY2UqEYSAfIrtOdEXSDum0Lu6sNEJQ4q9w&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;32 to 64 bit HCL Notes upgrade error&quot; data-original-height=&quot;176&quot; data-original-width=&quot;371&quot; height=&quot;304&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjWgYSP_ADzrYwW_0_U0H4VG-kedieghpvHElssUl8tooFsAvAojQFI47V0X4JxYm6A1cHpA8tSWbrFyov8wZUId7Q6aZKAyaBFRe6qbY77WBDtbSAVC4LehXYCBn3MjcUW2Ovj2H55eSp8QfDGrk1yoAMNoY2UqEYSAfIrtOdEXSDum0Lu6sNEJQ4q9w=w640-h304&quot; title=&quot;32 to 64 bit HCL Notes upgrade error&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I just got back from the HCL Factory Tour in Milan, will post about that next week, but first, I need to explain this.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As you may, or should know, HCL created a 64bit client that is now available as of 12.0.2. Yesterday it appeared on Flexnet.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I asked in Milan what HCL did to help customers upgrade from their 32-bit clients to the 64-bit one because, in the beta, one would get the error message above when trying to run the installer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2 different HCLers told me you could just install one over the other, but it is not recommended.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I pointed out that the beta said one could not, but they insisted.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Well, I am here to point out you can not install over the 32-bit client to reach 64-bit nirvana.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The error still appears.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, off I went to uninstall 12.0.1FP1 32-bit client.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I did this on my personal server, which doubles as my test client, then started the 64-bt install.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One should run the NICE tool, yes there is a new NICE64 tool, and if you wish, restart your PC before running the 64-bit 12.0.2. installer. But I did not.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you have to ask why HCL is doing this, then turn in your IT badge, it has been a long time waiting for this to arrive.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgDgVdPLHNXtqxIpEMLQtJByDi_IwEaMzURnViAmlwZCt4nIc4kdh0PZdX89JvED9Re8KCQeCKLAdCD6W6bkb39DBhJMJykeXY2S3G6UIpwzmL1m2TIp2StE5FNLFCnnn4rMGY8KfxLJlc3G8NCI9BIaeFH8Nxy9HkTTgUh8eIhAKGYytOBGVs_ShibGQ&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Running the HCL Notes 64-bit installer&quot; data-original-height=&quot;396&quot; data-original-width=&quot;510&quot; height=&quot;497&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgDgVdPLHNXtqxIpEMLQtJByDi_IwEaMzURnViAmlwZCt4nIc4kdh0PZdX89JvED9Re8KCQeCKLAdCD6W6bkb39DBhJMJykeXY2S3G6UIpwzmL1m2TIp2StE5FNLFCnnn4rMGY8KfxLJlc3G8NCI9BIaeFH8Nxy9HkTTgUh8eIhAKGYytOBGVs_ShibGQ=w640-h497&quot; title=&quot;Running the HCL Notes 64-bit installer&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now the installer is free to get moving. The entire process, including downloading the code, took under 30 minutes and that was with me trying to install over my 32-bit client, grabbing the screenshots, writing this post in between clicking ok, etc.. Your time should be about 10 minutes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgD1Y_BbrhFywRYsavhJKiTv_4GFpy8QLWzV1LL1CiWLevDz_XaQwNjgXxofAbB3G6H8UbgsyY86qwFMMNfjbjn4yxth-9aX-MPC53W2_2ORNruTq4e59BfPXPnP3kwfo3iGnzeH3oTLnwsk7CuoPmwWNwnE68yshm670XKanhi6A0BUprsCxkTdpwwsg&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Completed HCL Notes 64-bit installer&quot; data-original-height=&quot;394&quot; data-original-width=&quot;516&quot; height=&quot;489&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgD1Y_BbrhFywRYsavhJKiTv_4GFpy8QLWzV1LL1CiWLevDz_XaQwNjgXxofAbB3G6H8UbgsyY86qwFMMNfjbjn4yxth-9aX-MPC53W2_2ORNruTq4e59BfPXPnP3kwfo3iGnzeH3oTLnwsk7CuoPmwWNwnE68yshm670XKanhi6A0BUprsCxkTdpwwsg=w640-h489&quot; title=&quot;Completed HCL Notes 64-bit installer&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the way, the 64-bit client download file is 1GB. Domino is only 800MB, just sayin&#39;. It used to fit on some floppies.&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anyway, the bottom line is if you are doing a client/laptop/OS refresh soon, you need to go to the 64-bit client.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It was implied by HCL, well strongly hinted, that the next version would be the last 32-bit client, so you need to start planning for it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There will no doubt be more posts by people pointing out aspects that still need 32-bit parts like Jesse did here:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://frostillic.us/blog/posts/2022/11/17/notes-domino-12-0-2-fallout&quot;&gt;https://frostillic.us/blog/posts/2022/11/17/notes-domino-12-0-2-fallout&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Other Ambassadors have posted in our private chat about various issues the 64-bit client has with some application items, more info will be coming, no doubt, so developers, your time to test is here.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You may also need to think about which version of Microsoft office you installed and if anything depends on it, so test it, but you should have installed the 64-bit of that as well. This is from a conversation I had with a customer on the way to the train and airport which made me wonder what might happen.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiluNoJ48-d-HT8nfKdqSMJaM6k-K_FIBh0D80aA-bHsayfyj-iUZdwzs7fo-V6ik3BNo9qC5w7LQbJwv8sPfrqo22ZuTfyCxbM6bwurDvngrFlDDxx-KJXYJGisq7Jw508XUoHHgThGmU5GoWVjT9R_hl8SaYQgVcEKXltW1PLqDMmD-dzMZUQddxVgw&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;When complete you should see this in the About Window Box&quot; data-original-height=&quot;376&quot; data-original-width=&quot;537&quot; height=&quot;448&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiluNoJ48-d-HT8nfKdqSMJaM6k-K_FIBh0D80aA-bHsayfyj-iUZdwzs7fo-V6ik3BNo9qC5w7LQbJwv8sPfrqo22ZuTfyCxbM6bwurDvngrFlDDxx-KJXYJGisq7Jw508XUoHHgThGmU5GoWVjT9R_hl8SaYQgVcEKXltW1PLqDMmD-dzMZUQddxVgw=w640-h448&quot; title=&quot;When complete you should see this in the About Window Box&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So caveat emptor and start testing and preparing your plans and progress.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Starts right up, all of the .nsfs I had, and the workspace is there just like before. I did not clean out my notes.ini, but you should or just strip it down to the basics and let it update, but that is for another post.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As always, feel free to reach out for help from me, fellow HCL Ambassadors, your Business Partner, or HCL rep.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Happy Installing! Now on to my server update, Traveler, Nomad, Verse, and &lt;a href=&quot;https://ontimesuite.com/en/domino/downloads/download-freemium&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Ontime Freemium Group Calender&lt;/a&gt; updates(their video here:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxCIEQ5fjOQ&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxCIEQ5fjOQ&lt;/a&gt;). I will post updates once each is done and how long it took to do them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Server Update Info&lt;/b&gt;: Including shutting down Domino, installing the update, restarting the server, and then all the server updates running, the total time was 6 minutes until I could access it from my client. Naturally, in full corporate environments, your timing will vary.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Traveler Update Info&lt;/b&gt;: Traveler 12.0.2. now enforces that you shut down Domino before installing it. So, although the actual time to install Traveler is a minute or 2, the process takes longer due to the shutdown, and then I did a clean reboot as well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;NOMAD Update Info&lt;/b&gt;: Delayed, no 12.0.2 documentation has been indexed yet, so there are no details about it beyond downloading the 1.0.5 code which I got in beta, unzipping it to the domino root folder, and running NOMAD as a server task. Product Management says 1.0.5/12.0.2 version is not up yet on Flexnet. Will update this once available.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Verse Update Info&lt;/b&gt;: Although I thought it would be inside Domino 12.0.2, it seems that is not the case, so it is still a separate update. The current version is 3.0, which you can download from Flexnet. Follow these instructions, &lt;a href=&quot;https://help.hcltechsw.com/verse_onprem/3.0/admin/vop_configuring_server.html&quot;&gt;https://help.hcltechsw.com/verse_onprem/3.0/admin/vop_configuring_server.html&lt;/a&gt;. You&amp;nbsp;should have it up in about 10 minutes if you have all the other parts in place. If not, you may need an hour or so to configure whatever you are missing. URL looks like this example if you need to run in parallel to iNotes:&amp;nbsp;https://keithbrooks.com/verse&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ontime Freemium Group Calendar Info&lt;/b&gt;: It will probably get done over the weekend.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2022/11/welcome-to-1202-please-uninstall-your.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjWgYSP_ADzrYwW_0_U0H4VG-kedieghpvHElssUl8tooFsAvAojQFI47V0X4JxYm6A1cHpA8tSWbrFyov8wZUId7Q6aZKAyaBFRe6qbY77WBDtbSAVC4LehXYCBn3MjcUW2Ovj2H55eSp8QfDGrk1yoAMNoY2UqEYSAfIrtOdEXSDum0Lu6sNEJQ4q9w=s72-w640-h304-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>1</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-4470221388289600551</guid><pubDate>Thu, 10 Nov 2022 08:44:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2022-11-10T10:44:30.444+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">#hcl</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Domino</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">TOTP</category><title>A Domino TOTP PSA</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUShMCkngydDxZEY3bn8gbE8O_BpYT1Aa7bJb-x12pESda5GlCNS6RNGUbXWa-hiImSUuAsaUQK1tfgAQfRVMOYDH_qKbgSmCZRw0wFYwPI0hJQLHxVvyF0tfyOVw2tp5SbHJfuIyUNsT8-8mJeKMmv2qXAxSj06jZD3k8OZYzeVsSx0JkZ4neOOWE9Q/s995/totppsa.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;785&quot; data-original-width=&quot;995&quot; height=&quot;504&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUShMCkngydDxZEY3bn8gbE8O_BpYT1Aa7bJb-x12pESda5GlCNS6RNGUbXWa-hiImSUuAsaUQK1tfgAQfRVMOYDH_qKbgSmCZRw0wFYwPI0hJQLHxVvyF0tfyOVw2tp5SbHJfuIyUNsT8-8mJeKMmv2qXAxSj06jZD3k8OZYzeVsSx0JkZ4neOOWE9Q/w640-h504/totppsa.png&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2022/11/a-domino-totp-psa.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUShMCkngydDxZEY3bn8gbE8O_BpYT1Aa7bJb-x12pESda5GlCNS6RNGUbXWa-hiImSUuAsaUQK1tfgAQfRVMOYDH_qKbgSmCZRw0wFYwPI0hJQLHxVvyF0tfyOVw2tp5SbHJfuIyUNsT8-8mJeKMmv2qXAxSj06jZD3k8OZYzeVsSx0JkZ4neOOWE9Q/s72-w640-h504-c/totppsa.png" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-642676095609069877</guid><pubDate>Thu, 03 Nov 2022 07:28:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2022-11-03T09:28:00.181+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">administrator client</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Domino</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">fti</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">HCL</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">indexing</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">SNTT</category><title>SnTT - Which Database has an FTI?</title><description>&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikn70jUeNYM9CUMhwwDajC1gEr6eHBbKUatySuQzkbPNksJe0gHlhTzNmNp4CSzfaY8HtbEgKnhWSvMyshYeWrQK50bOAFEK060baQ2Q5yv3WnXxVJY_cybsKf821BqIKARCDxftuLz2AbhjEqJ8cRbc57b114LRjMy3hUCGa47P8oZyPAyeiSKkGn1Q/s950/sntThursday.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;299&quot; data-original-width=&quot;950&quot; height=&quot;202&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikn70jUeNYM9CUMhwwDajC1gEr6eHBbKUatySuQzkbPNksJe0gHlhTzNmNp4CSzfaY8HtbEgKnhWSvMyshYeWrQK50bOAFEK060baQ2Q5yv3WnXxVJY_cybsKf821BqIKARCDxftuLz2AbhjEqJ8cRbc57b114LRjMy3hUCGa47P8oZyPAyeiSKkGn1Q/w640-h202/sntThursday.png&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Earlier this year, Martin Vogel and I gave a session at Engage titled &quot;Teaching Young and Old Dogs New&amp;nbsp; Tricks: Notes &amp;amp; Domino Shortcuts You Wish You Knew,&quot; It was a great session with a filled capacity of the room.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But I was neglectful; I had planned to post some essential tips in my blog at the time but did not get to it. I will try to make up for it over the next few weeks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The first one that not everyone may know about is how to find out which databases have a FTI, Full Text Index.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here is the scenario:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You are asked to build new servers for your customer or organization and while looking at the old server, notice some indexing on some databases. This causes you to think, how do I find out which databases have an FTI so they can be rebuilt on the new server?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Good question, right?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will first provide an answer for anyone not on R12 and then post the R12 way.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2 style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;Pre R12 FTI Details for any given Database&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Open the catalog.ntf in the designer client&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Open the Views List&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Edit the Applications\by Server view&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Insert a column where you want it, and name it FT Index&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Change the field for this new column to DbFullTextIndexed&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Set the column to sort both ways&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Save your changes&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Replace the design of your catalog.nsf&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;NOTE&lt;/b&gt;: This presumes all your databases are set to show in the catalog.nsf, so not 100% foolproof&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h2 style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;The R12 way to see FTI Details for all Databases on Your Server&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;div&gt;Open the Administrator client&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Go to the Files tab&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Click on File-Preferences-Administration Preferences&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Select the Files Tab&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Add the FT Index (see screenshot below, FT Index is the last one in the list)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Reorder the column location, or it may end up in the 27th column&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Restart the Administrator client to see the change&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If you need it, you can copy and paste the full view into Excel if that helps you track what you are doing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjcLdCtxUWYvedqKtDEhMUS3C_NxOLQ5VVY7jfuzT0UrPgRzrC5PgCUKCqK0-gdzD4IxPol5Df4anJhl7xcuVI-J8kd5whNeoqc6qOxoe-HhkPeM8Zp8hL6aMQc0JyYTL5yVVYzZFGiF7T9tiCTbkqezr0niUjGyHBgEwKzSOEf77yYy0aPl7078dT5Fg&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;295&quot; data-original-width=&quot;500&quot; height=&quot;378&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjcLdCtxUWYvedqKtDEhMUS3C_NxOLQ5VVY7jfuzT0UrPgRzrC5PgCUKCqK0-gdzD4IxPol5Df4anJhl7xcuVI-J8kd5whNeoqc6qOxoe-HhkPeM8Zp8hL6aMQc0JyYTL5yVVYzZFGiF7T9tiCTbkqezr0niUjGyHBgEwKzSOEf77yYy0aPl7078dT5Fg=w640-h378&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pretty cool if you ask me that this got added in R12.

What if you don&#39;t want Verse to have TOTP, but access to applications, or mail, should have TOTP?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My suggestion from a security perspective is to create a new URL for Verse. It is easier, under R12, for you to create a unique URL for your domain and get a Let&#39;s Encrypt SSL certificate for it for free.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Sidenote: I understand that you could leave it set up as it is above and turn TOTP off for the default website. You may do this because you don&#39;t want to field tons of help desk calls from users who can&#39;t change a URL, but this route would leave your whole server in a less secure mode.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Decide on the new URL, traveler.company.com.Set it up in your internal and outside DNS.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Create the new Internet Site document for the unique domain. It may look something like this:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgQq9EmmEbt4rAL7w4FHQHG5XG2o46KdHr2AI5E3yGMwsc-g95ihx0bydYKwQ3__62vI546nswNGOxjE1lVT7AnNh7nuDmDS6P07nbOcY3bY7xezXo7XCH5HMHLJTEMKgJ9uICtiSXbsMqJxdVKTrNcyt3VmNHy0oCfCdsMbrxbTdFgCrpewCjP83iF7w&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;249&quot; data-original-width=&quot;573&quot; height=&quot;278&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgQq9EmmEbt4rAL7w4FHQHG5XG2o46KdHr2AI5E3yGMwsc-g95ihx0bydYKwQ3__62vI546nswNGOxjE1lVT7AnNh7nuDmDS6P07nbOcY3bY7xezXo7XCH5HMHLJTEMKgJ9uICtiSXbsMqJxdVKTrNcyt3VmNHy0oCfCdsMbrxbTdFgCrpewCjP83iF7w=w640-h278&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhnOwUdq3hzCSoBKtm86E-yKjq-oh6pgjsbW4EA5peGKZ6u7BjESdDcNJCVQ0W0fjNNbG7kAtaQLWHYCdd34RlFZCfg_QhPpWitcExJR5tXsWj6_G7Lyzbr3VGPKB3ugaSUQyTKN89dkVi2iWesse2skT7nc86Ty7yW3usOV8Jxd3IIUyH-Qp6fOklVIA&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;721&quot; data-original-width=&quot;645&quot; height=&quot;640&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhnOwUdq3hzCSoBKtm86E-yKjq-oh6pgjsbW4EA5peGKZ6u7BjESdDcNJCVQ0W0fjNNbG7kAtaQLWHYCdd34RlFZCfg_QhPpWitcExJR5tXsWj6_G7Lyzbr3VGPKB3ugaSUQyTKN89dkVi2iWesse2skT7nc86Ty7yW3usOV8Jxd3IIUyH-Qp6fOklVIA=w573-h640&quot; width=&quot;573&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhSMrHxz5dr3my7U0QyQRgdB1_oe2hAQfkdo5sKwE5udrjNi5eEvamM3OvJe919HqqL6kLFDRb2KktrAx-d0BR49eGnVYD7OoVspfIno29AV1g7U8S74f2t3B6yPYxPtiCNHTZ8dx2zQHR7OUzMS7s7NGYhf75VNY3X-5DvVlSh0IK6QouO7NowMr3Yug&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;387&quot; data-original-width=&quot;487&quot; height=&quot;509&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhSMrHxz5dr3my7U0QyQRgdB1_oe2hAQfkdo5sKwE5udrjNi5eEvamM3OvJe919HqqL6kLFDRb2KktrAx-d0BR49eGnVYD7OoVspfIno29AV1g7U8S74f2t3B6yPYxPtiCNHTZ8dx2zQHR7OUzMS7s7NGYhf75VNY3X-5DvVlSh0IK6QouO7NowMr3Yug=w640-h509&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjcmYErsRRmTbhfkTE6oM492Y5rHoNE2Tqn3I0PWsRyP3Skb76rJ-FdXyjxNxMbHNuSQ7x9R99vb_A_K3H4V6q-ckPABxUu3HLefSlVguQlCGrrGHvpTfh07kV9Q3CXs5Vuh3w9SME2TOqSImHSakNwBByU2DJ-O3xyDhGf48HygwsUhFmb4mLz5g2E_w&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;300&quot; data-original-width=&quot;574&quot; height=&quot;334&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjcmYErsRRmTbhfkTE6oM492Y5rHoNE2Tqn3I0PWsRyP3Skb76rJ-FdXyjxNxMbHNuSQ7x9R99vb_A_K3H4V6q-ckPABxUu3HLefSlVguQlCGrrGHvpTfh07kV9Q3CXs5Vuh3w9SME2TOqSImHSakNwBByU2DJ-O3xyDhGf48HygwsUhFmb4mLz5g2E_w=w640-h334&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Don&#39;t forget to edit your Traveler URL section of the server document to accommodate this change.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhFWURdOdU0k7Pd6X8L0grniZXxI3c4k3uckKwxRak712Z4by66TJgcGw0aCabvtfk4vYuclZD0pJoeHzUUh2lF0u6McozfMCsdXwIyMHBs18B7ExyKJM963rhNIDB8D2AbOx1jMV284Q_R7UQL_NuRowApyrh-YN0ic18dKs7XtuoM3htQzfEI9FNDZw&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;174&quot; data-original-width=&quot;825&quot; height=&quot;134&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhFWURdOdU0k7Pd6X8L0grniZXxI3c4k3uckKwxRak712Z4by66TJgcGw0aCabvtfk4vYuclZD0pJoeHzUUh2lF0u6McozfMCsdXwIyMHBs18B7ExyKJM963rhNIDB8D2AbOx1jMV284Q_R7UQL_NuRowApyrh-YN0ic18dKs7XtuoM3htQzfEI9FNDZw=w640-h134&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And now you can restart HTTP and Traveler, and you should get prompted for TOTP at your domain, but not with Verse once outside DNS changes go into effect.

Enter in your username, password, and MFA Token via your authenticator&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #4a5c65; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Step 4: Click the Login button.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Naturally, you can add whatever text you wish and probably add a popup help window, among other things, but I am just a simple admin.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Don&#39;t forget to save your changes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While still in this form, if you go to the list of objects below the window and look for the &quot;Window Title&quot; object, you can edit the text there, as I have, so it says &quot;The CompanyName MFA Login Page.&quot; And don&#39;t forget to save your changes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I like to minimize helpdesk calls, so I want people to realize it is a legitimate site. I know, hokey, but something is better than nothing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The hard part, and I don&#39;t suggest you do this unless you really want to do it, is to edit the MFA Setup page.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You see, it is not a page, or a form, or a view. It is a small java file.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You would have to unarc/zip it or whatever you do to java files, edit it, recompile it, and put it back on your server.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And if you do a server update, it will wipe it out.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And you would have to do it all over again. You might be able to copy the file, but if HCL makes any changes, you are screwed, so I have decided not to mess with it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The .ntf would also get overwritten on an update, so why do it there?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To me, it is easier to replicate and maintain a local copy of the .ntf than to do it for the java part, but again, YMMV.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My personal server page looks like this now:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjv1yeoawbww32agbYv509503I0GRECcxR2XDc0Bfe7zYtO3tdcAK-owotI08ad5PCrh_sM1wDVfgMJehChqz6womMIokKHOTlPlgztFNBVq0Wg4LAvZr0f3Z0wdQgfnSXGs73HvZLOJBJR8Ll1YmzX23BFiqm8oRqtNBcPhzipSZuLufiqw2gKFMz2Wg&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;528&quot; data-original-width=&quot;1161&quot; height=&quot;183&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjv1yeoawbww32agbYv509503I0GRECcxR2XDc0Bfe7zYtO3tdcAK-owotI08ad5PCrh_sM1wDVfgMJehChqz6womMIokKHOTlPlgztFNBVq0Wg4LAvZr0f3Z0wdQgfnSXGs73HvZLOJBJR8Ll1YmzX23BFiqm8oRqtNBcPhzipSZuLufiqw2gKFMz2Wg=w400-h183&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you previously had a custom login form and now want to add TOTP, I strongly suggest you copy your custom form into the $$LoginUserFormMFA and sort it out from there.&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are too many parts to TOTP and the domcfg database that will make it hard to do it in reverse,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am sure my developer friends may make fun of me, but this was the easier(less time involved) of the 2 ways we tried to do it to bring it up and make it work. Again YMMV.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I did not touch on the use of the notes redirector, but that is how we are using it, and of course, if you need to edit the iNotes Redirector, I wrote a few posts about it many years ago, you can click on that section from the top of my blog or use this link:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blog.vanessabrooks.com/p/inotes-redirector.html&quot;&gt;https://blog.vanessabrooks.com/p/inotes-redirector.html&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2022/10/customizing-totp-login-form-and-mfa.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEguT7mWF6yuBAB6-AJ3o2En7_Uo4sCyu1JGswJCb4RU576p2cWfnRzKWq2zRSWO7Gq0rSbALZuN0MQEqi3Z-AvVZtS7dQlZsyThjXsiA2e-VfmC-cEaffCEFcGFKEAw6Bz0qoOJoCvvmA7-Y5c57gn_rjxijhWgrQiohJVW_eQRx1I_TWP_KI6ZddyIaQ=s72-w640-h370-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-7966545972457710618</guid><pubDate>Fri, 21 Oct 2022 10:53:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2022-10-26T20:28:04.838+03:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">&quot;keith brooks&quot;</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">#collabsphere</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Domino</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">HCL</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">TOTP</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">traveler</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">verse</category><title>To TOTP, or NOT To TOTP, Traveler/Verse users, THAT is THE Question</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot;

It will update your old Domino applications appearance and give it a modern look in minutes! Totally cool!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Project Keep is back&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;R13.0 is a 2024 thing, with 12.02 being out by Q4-22 and 12.03(or maybe 13 if they change their mind) in 2023.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The designer client is getting redone(no idea what that means) for the 2023 time frame,&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;When I asked about the admin client, it was missing from Barry Rosen&#39;s slide. I got some interesting answers, so something is brewing, but no date is planned, so think R13. For that keeping score, Tim Clark is PM for Admin client.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;12.02 I think they said they will have Busytime lookups for O365 invitees, maybe 12.03, either way, this is great and needed by everyone.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;More DKIM and SPF, and DMARC parts are coming soon.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Verse 3.0 is out soon(June). Less iNotes more purposeful built things in it. Read the Read me file as Agnes said, Beta for Verse means something is included but not default turned on. So check it out and RTFM.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;HCL VOLT MX GO was announced to help customers connect more parts of their world to Domino and vice versa. Jason Gary did a pitch about the name at Engage. If you remember the 90s/00s when we had Domino Go Server and similar things, you get what this is about.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Verse mobile is the Traveler client. Confusing? Yes, is it going to be changed? No.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;In my session, half the room was already on R12, and I would think many of the customers that attended were as well.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sametime 12 is available. It only runs in a container.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;HCL is pushing out ALL the 3 tiers of languages on the GA dates, unlike IBM, which made everyone wat 30/60/90 days.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Certifications and HCL Training are coming back, Luis Guirigay&#39;s slides should be reviewed for more details. Engage will be posting the slide decks shortly.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Talk about having a by default ODS update built into the client when you install it.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The ability to swap who is sending the email is getting enhanced further.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Just a reminder, 12.01 had a names.nsf template update you want to use, especially if you are working on a TOTP plan.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Nomad will not require Safelinx any longer, thanks to the dev team that said &quot;we can do this&quot; and they did!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Chocolate is good, free chocolate is better, but free beer is the best.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I went into the event relatively neutral but left very upbeat and impressed by HCL and what they are saying and showing. While I may disagree with the dev first mentality, I am, after all, a long-time (29 years?!) messaging and an admin person.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you do not go to these types of events, where everyone from Richard Jefts down to the sales and tech staff is accessible, you are missing out on having yourself heard.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My time with Richard, was really insightful. Then again, so were my discussions with Barry, Andrew, Scott, Michael, Luis, and many more people, even the great Gareth Cook of the iNotes Redirector fame.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thank you to Theo and Hilde for once again putting on a great event and making everyone feel comfortable and happy to be part of the extended Yellowverse family.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lastly,&amp;nbsp; I want to thank Martin Vogel for presenting with me. It was his first time presenting at Engage and his first time presenting in English. He nailed it. I will be posting our tips over the next few weeks because Slideshare no longer works the way it used to, and some of the tips should be searchable and not hidden in a presentation.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2022/05/engage-recap.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-6663067535200990444</guid><pubDate>Thu, 16 Dec 2021 19:53:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2021-12-16T21:56:09.265+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">#domino4ever</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">#HCLAmbassador</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">keith brooks</category><title>Crazy 2021 Ending, The Streak Continues as an HCL Ambassador</title><description>&lt;p&gt;The last 2 years have been brutal in many ways, and honestly, after my efforts with &lt;a class=&quot;css-4rbku5 css-18t94o4 css-901oao css-16my406 r-1cvl2hr r-1loqt21 r-poiln3 r-b88u0q r-bcqeeo r-1ny4l3l r-1ddef8g r-tjvw6i r-qvutc0&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; href=&quot;https://twitter.com/hashtag/HCLAmbassadorTips?src=hashtag_click&quot; role=&quot;link&quot; style=&quot;background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.03); border: 0px solid black; box-sizing: border-box; color: #1d9bf0; cursor: pointer; display: inline; font-family: TwitterChirp, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, &amp;quot;Segoe UI&amp;quot;, Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: inherit; list-style: none; margin: 0px; min-width: 0px; outline-style: none; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: 1px; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;#HCLAmbassadorTips&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;in 2020, 2021 for me was relatively quiet.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But HCL has deemed me worthy of continuing as an HCL Ambassador, now going on 9 years in a row, including the prior years as an IBM Champion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Maybe I did something right for my clients, or I did something wrong, and no one complained. Yeah, I did blow some stuff up by accident at a client, but not like what I did in my first real IT gig.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Maybe my sessions at the various events in 2021 were so awesome they had to make me an ambassador again. Then again, I doubt the 10-50 of you that showed up are on the voting committee. The rest of you that did not appear, that&#39;s ok, I was zoomed out already in 2020. Beers for all of us at Engage, I hope.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The long tail of those sessions, however, is massive.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And that is what HCL expects from its Ambassadors. To provide content, help, support others and find ways to assist the community and worldwide customer base.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some of my slides posted this year have over 500 views. I wish I knew why so I could repeat it again in 2022.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Likewise, some blog posts about the topics I presented this past year are over 3,000 hits which for my blog, given how often I write these days, is pretty impressive.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So what will I do in 2022?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have no idea. My post from last year did not promise much in 2021 because I really was worn out from the 366 tips I posted.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But, for those who want to understand this Ambassador thing better, I point you to my post last year around this time of the year for how you can join in the fun.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2020/12/what-does-it-mean-to-be-hcl-ambassador.html&quot;&gt;https://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2020/12/what-does-it-mean-to-be-hcl-ambassador.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I told my oldest daughter that I may start a TikTok Tips thing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She is still laughing hours later.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I had some other ideas but nothing concrete enough to commit to writing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Until then, congratulations to all of the HCL Ambassadors wherever you are in the world, and I hope to see you in 2022 someplace, some time.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2021/12/crazy-2021-ending-streak-continues-as.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-6749278967245483809</guid><pubDate>Wed, 20 Oct 2021 18:00:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2021-12-16T12:22:29.362+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">collabsphere</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">hcl ambassador</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">keith brooks</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">mfa</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">r12</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">TOTP</category><title>My Collabsphere Session on TOTP/MFA and HCL Domino R12</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Great to be speaking again at Collabsphere.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This was the first of my 2 sessions, feel free to download it and ask any questions about it.&lt;/p&gt;

Set up the ID Vault, and when people log in to their Notes client, their ID files get sent to the ID Vault. Newly registered people are also automatically added to the ID Vault.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But what do you do about people who solely use webmail/iNotes?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How do you get their IDs into the ID Vault?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This, I thought, would be an easy thing, but it turned out to be way more effort than first thought.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One option, I thought, would be to select the user in the Directory with the names.nsf open, right-click on their person document, and select upload ID to the ID Vault. A similar Action from the top menu bar option can be found in the Admin client when the Directory is not open.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Not so fast.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;First, the option and action did not appear. Second, even if they did appear, we had 2 problems: where were these people&#39;s ID files and the better issue was who had the passwords?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You see, when you upload the ID files to the ID Vault, Domino asks for the password for the file being uploaded, and if it does not match, you are out of luck.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We could not resolve the 2nd problem. More on that in a minute.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The first problem, I reached out to HCL Support to find out what happened to the action/agents.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Turns out they were in the template but not in the database.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After reviewing it with HCL, we found the customer had edited the People view of the Directory and set it to not update with changes from future templates.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Changed that setting in Designer, the properties of the view, and then ran a replace design on the Directory, restarted the server, and now it worked and showed the action/agent items.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now, back to the ID problem.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How does one register new users without wiping out all their details in their existing person document in the most optimal way?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I figured I needed to look at registering people with a text file and how to do it so as not to change their existing internet password or wipe out their mail file.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;11 years ago, I wrote this post,&lt;a href=&quot;https://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2010/06/id-registration-via-text-file.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt; https://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2010/06/id-registration-via-text-file.html&lt;/a&gt;, waiting for the moment it would be helpful again.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Well, that day has come. However, to be fair, I have used it a few times over the years.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I also was searching for how do you create a user but not create a mail file. This I did not get an answer to in my searches or when asking some people, so I decided I just had to work around the issue. If anyone knows, please let me know in the comments, and I will edit this post accordingly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Using the spreadsheet I had created back in 2010, I started working out what the syntax should look like to get this completed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After a few tests, ok, maybe a few more tests, I realized I needed to maintain the file names but change the file directory. That way, dummy mail files would be created, which could be deleted, saving their existing mail files. However, the person document would now show the wrong location for the person&#39;s mail. Hang on, we will fix that soon too.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These people needed ID files in the ID Vault but would never use them otherwise. The ID files require a password, but we do not want it to synch with their internet password because that would overwrite their existing one. Domino has a way to help us do this too, the explanation is below.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What does this spreadsheet look like before you copy the text to a .txt file? I figured I only needed to use a few fields, and this is what I used just 6 fields:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;LAST&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; FIRST&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; PASSWORD&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; FILE DIRECTORY&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;FILENAME&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; EMAIL&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now the fun part is you need a semi-colon (;) after any entry you want to enter, so my text file for registration ended up looking like 250 of these(see the 11-year-old blog post for details what goes in what order if you need more fields):&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Brooks;Keith;;;PASSWORD;;;;mail2;kbrooks.nsf;;;;;;keith@b2bwhisperer.com;&lt;/p&gt;But you need one more essential thing before starting the registering process for everyone.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If you click on options from the Registration window menu,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgtruU69F8UFclemL67K_IXaE4CTdgA8QeKd-QEZG3cGwRoYpayq15iOccl45CwnsoyQOq8QX6FZ3Eq6bZPycUk4UPIjtMh3nHb6Id9sK0BA9fHJQdXPkuh299hzl55iEsqhM5ACAPYO_W/&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;52&quot; data-original-width=&quot;404&quot; height=&quot;82&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgtruU69F8UFclemL67K_IXaE4CTdgA8QeKd-QEZG3cGwRoYpayq15iOccl45CwnsoyQOq8QX6FZ3Eq6bZPycUk4UPIjtMh3nHb6Id9sK0BA9fHJQdXPkuh299hzl55iEsqhM5ACAPYO_W/w640-h82/image.png&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;you will want to check the line that says &quot;Allow Registration of previously registered people&quot; and check the &quot;Don&#39;t prompt for a duplicate person&quot; option and select the most important option, &quot;Update the existing address book entry.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYjoGjEaHflEdksu86BwKF13Z8qYB_eXxpU58CiZqRBhxDF46mPiW4s0Ck_vfmVR41OWaLunaw7JU3p4Hp4OKnoMy1ESQdXfen28pjqS6yiQRcD0xcsCHLl2hGjkEKHIbFSnCCGcuQvFN3/&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;190&quot; data-original-width=&quot;308&quot; height=&quot;246&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYjoGjEaHflEdksu86BwKF13Z8qYB_eXxpU58CiZqRBhxDF46mPiW4s0Ck_vfmVR41OWaLunaw7JU3p4Hp4OKnoMy1ESQdXfen28pjqS6yiQRcD0xcsCHLl2hGjkEKHIbFSnCCGcuQvFN3/w400-h246/image.png&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When you use these settings, Domino will not stop for every duplicate user and just change precisely what we tell it to change in the person document.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In the registration form, you should make sure your ID Vault policy is set up for everyone.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;As discussed earlier, we don&#39;t want to overwrite any existing Internet passwords; thus, you need to click on Password Options and uncheck &quot;Set Internet Password&quot;; otherwise, you will write over their current Internet password. HINT: Back up your Names.nsf before doing this, so if you do screw it up, you can get it all back quickly.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In the Mail tab of registration, you set the mail template to use and leave the mail file name field with just the directory name. The .txt file handles this.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Set the expiration date you want to use for everyone you are creating on the ID Info tab.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now you import your .txt file, and Domino will tell you upfront if any of them have syntax issues.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Domino will then let you know if any person had issues or how many were completed when you run it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Please test with 2-3 people first, make sure all fields and entries look right, and the mail file gets created where you specified.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So how do we change the mail file locations, which now were mail2 instead of mail for 250 people out of 500?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A few months back, I started adding scripts to Openntf.org under the snippets&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://openntf.org/XSnippets.nsf&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Admin Scripts area&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;to help other admins and for just this purpose.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I took one of the scripts, adapted it for the Mail File location field, and then selected the users to run it on, and in seconds they were all back to normal.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I posted that new script as well in case anyone will need to do this at the openntf site.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Afterward, we had a few issues like:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Some people we were told were solely web users were not. This meant they lost their ID certificate and could not log in. Easy enough to fix by copying the new certificate into their person document and replacing the old one.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;A few people in our spreadsheet had mistyped an email or mail file name and a few similar names and file names that got by us in editing. Easily fixed, we had a backup to verify what they should have in their fields.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And there you have it, I know it sounds like a lot, but really, it is not that big of a deal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2021/10/sntt-totp-needs-id-file-in-id-vault-to.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgnbz2L2Ba3gBcjcSPfu7YISA5qLQtrM4fNl8_mTDykv4RKDU2Ytk26xrkivLUdJwuq4Iw4hsbPEBflQbcc4XjWBxMcl2RrTg1x9dEAn37VATq7ov6ifCfQajqQawTPz87XXgm8zK1iIAk/s72-w640-h202-c/sntTuesday.png" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-8166802526885489379</guid><pubDate>Thu, 07 Oct 2021 22:14:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2021-10-20T14:15:01.386+03:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">#domino</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">#HCLAmbassador</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">#keithbrooks</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">#sntt</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">convert</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">mail template</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">users</category><title>SnTT - Changing Some, But Not All, User&#39;s Mail Templates</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDmADHFQ7QnTPTWdluvqfKRuLZVo0eh4lrb1QMBnRydEqPUmARiTG1rDibSyoRCNJKEWLbPlX0iaKdU5r78uCYL58TpZLQd9YFHXICRJaUu4C5dkrEV3AelzeforMpWbUd3HGC-oveyHYT/s950/sntThursday.png&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;299&quot; data-original-width=&quot;950&quot; height=&quot;126&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDmADHFQ7QnTPTWdluvqfKRuLZVo0eh4lrb1QMBnRydEqPUmARiTG1rDibSyoRCNJKEWLbPlX0iaKdU5r78uCYL58TpZLQd9YFHXICRJaUu4C5dkrEV3AelzeforMpWbUd3HGC-oveyHYT/w400-h126/sntThursday.png&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know how to convert one person, you know how to convert a folder or a directory...But do you know how to convert just some people&#39;s templates in your company?&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Well, here is my story, how I changed 250 out of 450 people&#39;s templates.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Feel free to do this another way, but this worked and worked well, once I figured out the syntax and other item details missing from the &lt;a href=&quot;https://help.hcltechsw.com/domino/12.0.0/admin/upgr_upgradingmailfileswiththemailconversionutility_t.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;official documentation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My hope is you, and future me will be able to benefit from this in the future.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the original R12 Detail:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;table class=&quot;- topic/table table frame-all&quot; style=&quot;background-color: white; border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid; color: #212529; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 1em 1em 1rem; width: 603.328px;&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody class=&quot;- topic/tbody tbody&quot; style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot;&gt;&lt;tr class=&quot;- topic/row rowsep-1&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom: 1px solid; box-sizing: border-box;&quot;&gt;&lt;th class=&quot;- topic/entry entry align-left colsep-1 rowsep-1&quot; id=&quot;H_UPGRADING_USERS_MAIL_FILES_9315_STEPS_MIDTOPIC_5652710429243602__entry__9&quot; scope=&quot;row&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-color: inherit; border-right-style: solid; border-right-width: 1px; border-top-style: solid; border-top-width: 1px; box-sizing: border-box; padding: 0.75rem; text-align: left; vertical-align: top;&quot;&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;- topic/p p&quot; style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;Upgrade all mail databases listed in a text file&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/th&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;- topic/entry entry align-left colsep-1 rowsep-1&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-color: inherit; border-right-style: solid; border-right-width: 1px; border-top-style: solid; border-top-width: 1px; box-sizing: border-box; padding: 0.75rem; vertical-align: top;&quot;&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;- topic/p p&quot; style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 0px;&quot;&gt;You can create a text file listing databases you want to upgrade and use it with the mail conversion utility to upgrade only those databases.

More from me about TOTP at Collabsphere.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Back to your data, I suggest copying columns A and B for the moment into a new tab of your spreadsheet, so as not to mess with the data in case you need it again.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now you can remove the people you don&#39;t need to fix so the list is just people you need to convert their templates.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Next, add a column in front of the filename column which was column B.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the first cell of the new column put in the mail folder name, commonly would look like this: mail\&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Copy that the length of your list.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now in Column D at the first cell, use the =CONCATENATE(B1,C1)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;and you will now have a visual entry similar to this:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;mail\abbott.nsf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;mail\costello.nsf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;mail\groot.nsf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Copy the D1 cell the length of your list.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now select all the concatenated cells and copy them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Open notepad or a text editor and paste them in there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Save the file and give it a simple name, like templates.txt and save it to your server.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now you are ready for the magic!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;NOTE: TEST with 2 names and see if they run, if not, you have a typo in the command or a syntax one in the .txt file, or an incorrect directory name problem. Domino is pretty good here to tell you why it failed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You need to stop the router to prevent any inbound mail issues/corruption.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Server console Type: Tell Router Quit&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Next, at the Server Console type (make sure you use the old template name NOT filename followed by the .ntf name for the one you require):&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;load convert -f -u e:\up\mailtest.txt stdr10mail mailX.ntf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-u will update the folders the user has created.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-f reads the names to update from the text file.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The server should start processing everyone.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cool, right?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;UPDATE:&amp;nbsp;Upgrade all previous users&#39; mail designs listed in maillist.txt to Notes mail design if there is no mail template specified.

It seems you can download multiple files, but you can only upload 1 file at a time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Okay, a bit tedious. I had about 40 files, but if I needed to edit the notes.ini or to change the SSL keys(if you are not using LE4D) and did not have access at the time, this does the trick.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Follow the instructions for it, copy it to the server, sign it, assign an ACL and then start browsing the server files.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Created a folder under domino\data\domino\html and then moved all the files.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Edit the Internet Site Document, so it knows which directory to read from and which HTML file to use as the primary page and restart HTTP, and it works.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If you know of anything similar and is available, free or for a fee, include it in the comments or message me to include the other options for everyone.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The best part is I get to cancel a meeting for later today that was about access.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2021/04/sntt-when-you-need-os-acces-but-dont.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgnbz2L2Ba3gBcjcSPfu7YISA5qLQtrM4fNl8_mTDykv4RKDU2Ytk26xrkivLUdJwuq4Iw4hsbPEBflQbcc4XjWBxMcl2RrTg1x9dEAn37VATq7ov6ifCfQajqQawTPz87XXgm8zK1iIAk/s72-w640-h202-c/sntTuesday.png" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-3856877414771256804</guid><pubDate>Tue, 16 Mar 2021 11:15:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2021-03-16T13:15:54.564+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">admin</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">dashbaord</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">HCL Domino</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">keith brooks</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">monitoring</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">tasks</category><title>SnTT - Adding a 3rd party Task to the Domino Admin Client Monitoring Dashboard</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgnbz2L2Ba3gBcjcSPfu7YISA5qLQtrM4fNl8_mTDykv4RKDU2Ytk26xrkivLUdJwuq4Iw4hsbPEBflQbcc4XjWBxMcl2RrTg1x9dEAn37VATq7ov6ifCfQajqQawTPz87XXgm8zK1iIAk/s950/sntTuesday.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;299&quot; data-original-width=&quot;950&quot; height=&quot;202&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgnbz2L2Ba3gBcjcSPfu7YISA5qLQtrM4fNl8_mTDykv4RKDU2Ytk26xrkivLUdJwuq4Iw4hsbPEBflQbcc4XjWBxMcl2RrTg1x9dEAn37VATq7ov6ifCfQajqQawTPz87XXgm8zK1iIAk/w640-h202/sntTuesday.png&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This has bugged me for a while.

He gets all the credit, but we all get the benefit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Turns out you want to enter the details as shown::&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_3b8UASniqVMJLHlv_ma_3LTB0E9EYUa5-xKGhw2BRBhCs993VaOiAEDXDxVrpjnqxxfk4j3TmRkbSf2S3T6BP35ie1-YNEOGi5iKnIwKNTcg8xcT-Hmx0PHeyjftVEUgCiusmkf4Bmi_/&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-original-height=&quot;212&quot; data-original-width=&quot;374&quot; height=&quot;226&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_3b8UASniqVMJLHlv_ma_3LTB0E9EYUa5-xKGhw2BRBhCs993VaOiAEDXDxVrpjnqxxfk4j3TmRkbSf2S3T6BP35ie1-YNEOGi5iKnIwKNTcg8xcT-Hmx0PHeyjftVEUgCiusmkf4Bmi_/w400-h226/image.png&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;Maybe if the app/task has switches built-in, you can use them, like q, -q but in this case, we didn&#39;t have these options.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;Not everything in life has to be so difficult, nor requires a large blog post.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2021/02/sntt-how-to-stop-domino-taskapp-using.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGMIBzKwWP-oWSOQmVZafhp_kzGgBD_Ra3MH03v0T82RpCCnzwWZm1YQC_TNTgRTMfSlUPjt3uNgW22m7btjEDp89_06fzewTJcdcrG7QcD7G5c3dFbtGPU3S-LOYZhCBaYQj2KXu2nXIa/s72-w640-h202-c/sntThursday.png" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-6671278151169667234</guid><pubDate>Tue, 19 Jan 2021 11:31:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2021-01-19T13:31:00.474+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">admin</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">admin scripts</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">administator</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">HCL</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">hcl ambassadro</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">keith brooks</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">lotuscript</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">openntf</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">snippet</category><title>SnTT - Hear Ye, Hear Ye, Something new at Openntf for ADMINS</title><description>&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihWHNwHbIjZqRHmojDC2cQ_DQguppPkd6rXkT8OeOpiOA9xVUuBQfy8_POWhnt2g8xMj7jyPVBOEs5AAjZAaU1cE16iczD-cSxyzf7urrffoExv7pkgy5Xn6YRmKkYs8gwEP8bRievggV3/s950/sntTuesday.png&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Show n Tell Tuesday&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; data-original-height=&quot;299&quot; data-original-width=&quot;950&quot; height=&quot;202&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihWHNwHbIjZqRHmojDC2cQ_DQguppPkd6rXkT8OeOpiOA9xVUuBQfy8_POWhnt2g8xMj7jyPVBOEs5AAjZAaU1cE16iczD-cSxyzf7urrffoExv7pkgy5Xn6YRmKkYs8gwEP8bRievggV3/w640-h202/sntTuesday.png&quot; title=&quot;Show n Tell Tuesday&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;That&#39;s right, I resurrected Show n Tell Tuesday for this post because I can, it&#39;s my blog, and why wait for Thursday anyway?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A few months ago, my friend &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.cvom/MassimoDecimo59&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Roberto &lt;/a&gt;had the luck to join the &lt;a href=&quot;https://openntf.org/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Openntf &lt;/a&gt;Board.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you don&#39;t know what &lt;a href=&quot;https://openntf.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Openntf &lt;/a&gt;is, click on the link and check it out. NOW!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The TL;DR is Openntf is THE place to go when you need a template for an HCL Domino or Notes application to help your company. It is also where you can go for tutorials on various development topics and all kinds of developer code snippets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Admittedly, few admins ever add to the site, because, well, historically there is not much for admins there and often what we see/know is proprietary to our clients and companies. This has been my perspective for many years. However, a new world, a new time, and progress is being made, thanks to Roberto.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Openntf was not ignorant of the issue, many of my friends and fellow IBM Champions, and HCL Ambassadors, have worked hard over the years to make Openntf as useful as it is today by their incremental changes and awesome templates and code bits, even if I don&#39;t understand all of them.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We have come a long way.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Maybe we just got older and complained more, maybe they finally realized without Admins there is no server running, or maybe we do bring some benefit.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After all, as we rise like an HCL Phoenix from the ashes of the IBM years we are seeing new people ask questions and post requests, young and old, and they need guidance from us old, er, wizened people.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Roberto asked many of us what we would like to see as Admins in Openntf and I said I would like to see Lotusscripts, Formulas, and other code bits that help make our lives better, easier, and faster.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was worried that as some of us move along or retire or cross the Golden Firewall, we will lose knowledge and that would be pretty sad, given how many years of managing Notes and Domino networks we represent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am sure other admins also gave him input and I hope they will look into it further after reading this post or you reach out to Roberto with more ideas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In December I was asked to test something on the Openntf website and that is what this news is about.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;NEWS! NEWS! NEWS!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In addition to the existing benefits of the Openntf site, there is now a dedicated section for snippets of code, which is what EVERY admin needs. Here is a link to it:&lt;a href=&quot;https://openntf.org/XSnippets.nsf/home.xsp&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;https://openntf.org/XSnippets.nsf/home.xsp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now when you add a code snippet, the option to select the Language for it can be called &quot;Admin Scripts&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is a tag field so you can put whatever else you need in it to help your fellow admins find it when they need it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have posted 3 snippets which I use frequently, no doubt most of you will recognize the need for these as well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;Create a Forwarding Address in a Person Doc based on Email Address&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;Looking up and Converting a List of Notes Names into their Email Address&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Converting Regular Common Name Lists into Notes Hierarchical Names&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;div&gt;The first one is a simple script to grab an existing email and edit it for another field. Helpful when updating domains or in merger situations. Edit it, select all, done.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The second one is really good for your AAs or Marketing people who need to extract email addresses of employees or clients, and upload those into bulk email sending services like MailChimp or into Salesforce. I have set those users up so they never bother me again. Okay, I lose some billing time but honestly, who wants to look up a few hundred or thousand people&#39;s emails anyway? This takes seconds to do it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The third, a similar request to the second one, is because I was receiving very long lists of names to create ACL groups and mail groups. Names should be listed properly in these groups and this script helps you out. Again, in seconds.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Could these snippets be coded better?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Could they be used differently?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Will I be adding more over time?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Can any Admin, or Developer, use them?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Should you use these?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The answer to all these questions is YES!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I tried to explain the code and how to use it, so if I need to edit it or you have problems let me know and I will try to help you best I can.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Looking forward to seeing more snippets up there and that we can say 2021 is the year of the Admin.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Have things you need or like to see, let me know, I might have them and get them posted.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;favoriteIconContainer&quot; style=&quot;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; float: right; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-decoration-color: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;&quot;&gt;&lt;div id=&quot;view:_id1:_id3:OneUIMainAreaCallback:_id6:favPanel&quot; style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;favoriteIconContainer&quot; style=&quot;background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; float: right; font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;&quot;&gt;&lt;div id=&quot;view:_id1:_id3:OneUIMainAreaCallback:_id6:favPanel&quot; style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;favoriteIconContainer&quot; style=&quot;background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; float: right; font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;&quot;&gt;&lt;div id=&quot;view:_id1:_id3:OneUIMainAreaCallback:_id6:favPanel&quot; style=&quot;box-sizing: border-box;&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2021/01/sntt-hear-ye-hear-ye-something-new-at.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihWHNwHbIjZqRHmojDC2cQ_DQguppPkd6rXkT8OeOpiOA9xVUuBQfy8_POWhnt2g8xMj7jyPVBOEs5AAjZAaU1cE16iczD-cSxyzf7urrffoExv7pkgy5Xn6YRmKkYs8gwEP8bRievggV3/s72-w640-h202-c/sntTuesday.png" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>2</thr:total><georss:featurename>Rehovot, Israel</georss:featurename><georss:point>31.892773 34.811272</georss:point><georss:box>3.5825391638211528 -0.34497799999999756 60.203006836178844 69.967522</georss:box></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-2034508543958748753</guid><pubDate>Wed, 06 Jan 2021 02:12:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2021-01-06T04:12:31.028+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">data</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">employees</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">hr</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">metric</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">saas</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">usage</category><title>Metrics and Data when Viewed by Admins vs Management vs Users</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;I get it, but not sure if I like it, or if users should see it, or if I should let management use it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We have reached the era of metrics and data that can be measured.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But should it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;No question most systems have had usage reporting, patterns, logs, pretty but usually ugly data to make sense of for your boss.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In Twitter with Rachel Happe(https://twitter.com/rhappe) from The Community Roundtable asked:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  6. &lt;blockquote class=&quot;twitter-tweet&quot;&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot;&gt;IT friends - if I wanted to calculate the ratio of aggregate hours of meetings to total work time (and potentially segment by mngr/exec) could you get that from your calendar software?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(you might have to pull all events with a room or link since people block their calendars)&lt;/p&gt;— Rachel Happe (@rhappe) &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/rhappe/status/1346175751243128837?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&quot;&gt;January 4, 2021&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;script async=&quot;&quot; charset=&quot;utf-8&quot; src=&quot;https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;p&gt;Prompted some discussion and some replies from various people.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She found an answer for Microsoft Analytics from Alan Lepofsky:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;twitter-tweet&quot;&gt;&lt;p dir=&quot;ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot;&gt;If you use Microsoft look at Workplace Analytics (for admins) or MyAnalytics (for users) &lt;a href=&quot;https://t.co/h8JhHQ8VyC&quot;&gt;https://t.co/h8JhHQ8VyC&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://t.co/LiHY04NZQc&quot;&gt;https://t.co/LiHY04NZQc&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Alan Lepofsky 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 ✡️ (@alanlepo) &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/alanlepo/status/1346211667697414144?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&quot;&gt;January 4, 2021&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;script async=&quot;&quot; charset=&quot;utf-8&quot; src=&quot;https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;p&gt;And then Rachel asked about the admin side.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Over my 30 years in IT I have been asked to provide metrics, sometimes network items, sometimes user usage. Naturally, as a good employee or consultant, I gave customers what they asked for and automated some of them and others needed some manual efforts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Should software of course provide this information because it helps IT plan the future, and also be proactive in `their support efforts.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What I found is many people are ignorant of the data available.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It seems even more people are ignorant of understanding their own data.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Does management really care about the usage internally? Yes, because in some cases they can shut off a service no longer used. Alternatively, they may need to up their licensing or merge some solutions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But users, do users care what they do or how they do it, or when they do it? I am not s sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I know what I do, I think most people if pushed would also know what their habits are but does it imply you are a good employee or not? Does it mean you are goofing off or being more productive?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When I am managing clients or teams I have scheduled one day a week for most of my meetings. I reasoned I&#39;d rather &quot;waste&quot; one day instead of multiple days on meetings.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This usually has worked for me and my teams because 4 days a week we could work unimpeded.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Meetings don&#39;t last 30 or 60 minutes, the time before and after is lost, sometimes as much as 15 minutes or more on both ends before you get back in your groove.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;SaaS apps live on the usage data, they want people using their apps and do anything they can to have people using them, but is it a false metric?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am in my email all day long, it stays open, so is 8 hours of email, coupled with my network/vpn login time and then my individual application usage(some Saas, some network) to get to some crazy idea I work 20+ hours a day.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Who wants their company to view them in this way?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;No employees.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But management has nothing else to work with usually.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yes, revenue and sales, ok, that is the only given.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Back-office people, not much to show for their effort. You ran a campaign? You built a server? You rolled out an update? Nice work but quantifying it properly, not so simple, ROI vagueness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What if all your meetings and online time were tracked to show your actual working time was minimal?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How would you fight it?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;HR gets involved and guess who is on the chopping board?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;People are working from home and the last thing they want is to be picked on for their work effort which they are doing the best they can with what is going on.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hopefully, this is not going to affect you or your company but it is in the shadows, today. Soon it may be upfront and then it will get interesting with how employees push back or beat the system.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When I worked on Wall Street in the early 90s, we had a database someone wrote to track time. Nothing unusual about that, but the coder was not so advanced and could only set up increments of 15 minutes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of the IT guys I knew got yelled at but the boss because it turned out he billed for 30 hours in a day.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Twice.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It turns out he was delivering things to users, a mouse, a keyboard, software(they used to come in packages and everyone had a license and we had to leave them with the user) and so in theory if you spent 30 seconds dropping off a box or 5 minutes pugging in a mouse, you still billed 15 minutes per person because you could not select less time, because each delivery was billed back to the person and their business line expense code.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Data doesn&#39;t lie.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He got paid but was told to never do it again.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Next time, he took 3 days off instead because he billed his 40 hours in 2 days and just adjusted the dates.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Not the best employee, but this is where interpreting the data is so important to change systems and metrics as the system is running.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Maybe in time the metrics and data will be edited to be more useful but right now it is still hard to get good data and you should be aware of how to handle this discussion when you get into it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And the discussion is coming to a cubicle or zoom call soon.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.vanessabrooks.com/2021/01/metrics-and-data-when-viewed-by-admins.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Keith Brooks)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total><georss:featurename>Boca Raton, FL, USA</georss:featurename><georss:point>26.3683064 -80.1289321</georss:point><georss:box>-1.9419274361788439 -115.2851821 54.678540236178847 -44.9726821</georss:box></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994561579739999989.post-8313085055817089183</guid><pubDate>Thu, 31 Dec 2020 20:30:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2020-12-31T22:30:03.584+02:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">#2021plans</category><title>So, How Do I top 2020 in 2021?</title><description>Well, now what do I do?&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;366 #HCLAmbasaadorTips later, I need a new plan for 2021.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The daily thing is hard, especially when you have a day job, and this is your extra effort time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It also infringed on my guitar playing sometimes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I thought about a weekly or even biweekly course on Troubleshooting the HCL collab stack but realized that might take way more effort than I can give it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Speaking with a few people, suggestions came up around podcasting, video blogging, and 1-minute videos, but nothing felt right.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I may go back to old school blog posts, maybe revamp the FudBuster Friday posts or maybe just spend my time on CI, competitive intelligence, which I enjoy, but I need to find the right nuance.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After 20 years, the problem is that it is hard to do something new, unique, or even worthwhile in this space.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Knowing we will not likely be seeing each other in person again this year does not help.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Someone the other day, I think jokingly, asked for more wallpapers and screen savers.
