Compare doc count between replicas on two servers

I’m trying to compare the number of documents between replicas on two servers. The goal is to decommission one server if the same dbs exist with a reasonably similar number of documents. What I’m trying to do is get an array of mail dbs on each server (the path is slightly different) then compare them to find the duplicates. I get a count of docs as I go but am confused about how to store that variable.

Sub Initialize

On Error Goto ErrHndlr

Dim session As New NotesSession

Dim dbDir1 As New NotesDbDirectory(“Server1”)

Dim dbDir2 As New NotesDbDirectory(“Server2”)

Dim db1 As NotesDatabase, db2 As NotesDatabase

Dim maildb1 As NotesDatabase, maildb2 As NotesDatabase

Dim list1() As String, list2() As String

Dim ctr As Integer

Dim z As Variant

Open “c:\dblist.txt” For Output As #1

mailfolder = “COMAIL”

ctr = -1

Set db1 = dbDir1.GetFirstDatabase(DATABASE)

While Not (db1 Is Nothing)

path1 = Ucase(db1.FilePath)

If Ucase(Left(db1.FilePath, 6)) = “MAILAF” Then

server1 = “Server1”

Set maildb1 = New NotesDatabase(server1, db1.FilePath)

count1 = maildb1.AllDocuments.Count

ctr = ctr + 1

Redim Preserve list1(ctr)

list1(ctr) = path1

End If

Set db1 = dbDir1.GetNextDatabase()

Wend

ctr = -1

Set db2 = dbDir2.GetFirstDatabase(DATABASE)

While Not (db2 Is Nothing)

path2 = Ucase(db2.FilePath)

If Ucase(Left(db2.FilePath, 13)) = “COMAIL\MAILAF” Then

server2 = “Server2”

Set maildb2 = New NotesDatabase(server2, db2.FilePath)

count2 = maildb2.AllDocuments.Count

ctr = ctr + 1

Redim Preserve list2(ctr)

list2(ctr) = path2

End If

Set db2 = dbDir2.GetNextDatabase()

Wend

For x = 0 To Ubound(list1)

z = Arraygetindex(list2, mailfolder & "" & list1(x), 5)

If Not Isnull(z) Then

Print #1, list1(x)

End If

Next

ErrHndlr:

Print #1, Error & " " & Cstr(Erl)

Resume Next

End Sub

Subject: You better count the documents in a view, not just the ones in a database

I don’t have the time to figgure out the problem you did post, however, doing similar things historically to check if replication was running reliably, counting the amount of documents in view gave way better results than the documents in the database (I know both should be the same and have no explanation…)
