MONITORING


Example of creating activity logging records
This example shows the activity logging records that IBM® Lotus® Domino® generates when a user sends mail to another user whose mail database is on a different mail server. In this example, the message goes directly to the recipient's mail server without making any intermediate hops.

Domino generates some of these records, such as IBM® Lotus® Notes® session Checkpoint records and Notes database Checkpoint records, only if the activity occurs after the checkpoint interval has elapsed during the session.
