After installing version 8.0.2 I noticed that the server will run a consistency check on every single database BEFORE loading any tasks.
This is a PITA because we have thousands of databases and it takes almost 20 minutes for the HTTP task and others to start.
Is there a NOTES.INI variable that will allow the other tasks to load BEFORE running consistency check (like in every single other server version)?
Subject: Consistency checks
First I would ask what version of Domino were you on before 8.0.2. Then I would ask if you ran complete maintenance on the server before the upgrade and then after the upgrade.Compact -c -i
Updall -x
Fixup -f
If a consistency check is happening each time you restart the server then that tells me that the databases are reporting some sort of an issue each time. The first step would be to run the maintenance above and see if this stops the consistency checks.
I strongly do not recommend that you use any parameter to avoid the consistency checks. To do so would risk an unstable environment.
Subject: Skipping Consistency Check/
Add the following notes.ini parameter.
skip_fixup=1. this will skip the consistency check and then once the server is up and running run the fixup at a free system resource state…
