NETWORK CONFIGURATION
Database corruption
If the network connection fails while the Domino server is writing to a database on the file server or shared NAS server, the database can become corrupted. In addition, the interdependence of the file sharing protocols -- Server Message Block (SMB), Common Internet File System (CIFS), and Network File System (NFS) -- and the remote file system can affect the Domino server's performance. Domino sometimes needs to open large numbers of remote files, and low latency for read/write operations to these files is desirable.
To avoid these problems on Domino servers, consider doing one or more of the following:
When "Encrypt network data" is enabled, all Domino server and Notes workstation traffic is encrypted. However, the file I/O between the Domino server and the file server or shared NAS server is not encrypted, leaving it vulnerable to access by unauthorized users.
