MAINTAINING THE DOMINO AND DB2 ENVIRONMENT
Creating a local copy of the database
Copying a local copy of a database to a DB2 enabled Domino server
1. From the IBM Lotus Notes client, open the database you are going to copy.
2. Choose File - Application - New Copy.
3. Next to Server, click the arrow to display a list of servers. Select the DB2 enabled Domino server on which you want to place the copy.
4. Next to Title, enter a title for the database. The database icon and the Open Application dialog box display this title.
5. Next to File Name, enter the path and file name of the database.
6. Choose one:
You can assign ACL settings (including roles) before or after copying a local database to a server. Before copying the database, assign yourself Manager access to the ACL so that you will have Manager access to the new copy. If you do not copy the ACL when you copy the database to a server, the ACL in the new copy automatically lists you with Manager access.
Note You can also create a full-text index later.
The encryption option is intended to prevent unauthorized users from accessing a database from a workstation, laptop computer, or server. If you use this option, Notes encrypts the database using a specified ID so that only a user with that ID can gain access to the database directly from a server or workstation. You can choose one of three encryption levels. This encryption setting also carries over to copies of the database made at the operating system level.
Note The maximum database size is 64GB on Microsoft® Windows® and UNIX®.
