Client version view in Administrator

Hi There,

I have just upgraded our site to Domino 8.0.1 and am now planning the client upgrade. The view people by Client version view in the administrator is very useful but the problem I have is that a lot of our users have had a number of PC’s and client versions and as all these are stored in the person document it is hard to see what clients are really being used.

From this view I can now see that we are running 12 different versions of the notes client. but some people are listed as using 5+ clients because over the years they have had a number of PC’s and clients. So a lot of the information is historical and of no real use. I would like delete this information from each person doc and then allow it to repopulate when users log on.

To this end we have written an agent that deletes the following fields from the person docs (these were suggested on various forums.

“ClntMachine”

“ClntPltfrm”

“ClntBld”

“MajVer”

“MinVer”

“QMRVer”

“QMUVer”

“HotVer”

“FixPVer”

“FlagsVer”

“ClntDgs”

“ClntDate”

The agent successfully deletes the client info from the person document but on subsequent login ins the fields are not repopulated. even when ndycfg.exe is forced to run.

Thanks

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I think this is a great feature but just needs this tweek to make it truly useful

Has the “Update Client Information in Person Record” processed for these users? If it hasn’t processed, allow it to do so. If the request isn’t even generated, try deleting the DYNINFO* lines from the client notes.ini, delete the address book preferences, and then restart the client. This is just a base-line test and should not be necessary on all clients.

Are you deleting the fields from the document or just the values in the fields? I’d do the latter.
