Specifying database and server locations for resource balancing
Use the Server Profile Options dialog box to specify which databases and servers will be searched for activity data, and whether to use cached data. Because Activity Trends data changes only on a daily basis, caching data is highly recommended to increase system performance by avoiding a read across a potentially slow network. The first time a server's data is read, the data is cached and remains available. For example, if you read and then delete a server's activity data and later add the same server, the in-memory data is used.

You can open the Server Profile Options dialog box from the Activity Trends menu or by clicking the Server Profile Options button.

To specify locations

1. From the IBM® Lotus® Domino® Administrator, click the Server - Performance tab.

2. Select the Activity Trends - Resource Balancing view.

3. Choose Resource Balancing - Options to open the Server Profile Options dialog box.

4. Click General.

5. Under Activity Data Search Order, choose one or both:

6. Under Activity Trends Data Cache for the field "Enable caching of activity data," do one: 7. For the field "Cache expiration time out," enter the number of minutes that data remains cached after the server’s data is first retrieved. The default is 360 minutes.

8. Choose one of the following to set location defaults. These defaults apply only to items on the current tab.
