2. Start the Domino server. When you start the Domino server, you are prompted to specify whether to run Domino as an application or a Microsoft® Windows® service. Choose application.

3. (Domino administrator)On the Domino server, permanently enable transaction logging. (Domino administrator)

Note Enabling IBM® DB2 Universal Database™ Enterprise Server Edition functionality on the Domino server requires that Domino transaction logging be enabled first. Linear, circular or archival transaction logging can be used. Domino transaction log space will be used to store only data from NSF databases that have logging enabled. All DB2 enabled IBM® Lotus® Notes® databases will have logging enabled, but the DB2 transaction log will be used to store data from DB2 enabled Notes databases. Because DB2 is handling this logging, if you are only using DB2 enabled Notes databases, the Domino transaction log can safely be set to minimum size.

5. (Domino admin) If the DB2 server is not installed on the same computer with the Domino server, install the DB2 Run Time Client on the computer with the Domino server. The DB2 server install includes DB2 client libraries which Domino requires access to. If the DB2 server is on the same computer with the Domino server, Domino can use those libraries.

6. (Domino administrator)Start the Domino server.
