Hello All,
auto ODS Update in Notes 14 is for most of us a nice feature.
But we have users with big local databases. Some of them havn't enough disk space, some haven't enough time to wait for a compact of more than 100 GB Database at this time :-)
Is there a way to exclude single database or database list from automatic ODS uddate on Notes 14 Client start?
Regards
Jürgen
Hello @Juergen Thiel you can use the client notes.ini setting NSF_AlwaysUpdateODS=0 before starting an upgraded client to disable the automatic ODS upgrade.
Check this product document Controlling the ODS version of client-based databases
Hello Juergen,
You can control the automatic upgrade the OSD version for selected databases. you can use the client notes.ini setting NSF_AlwaysUpdateODS=0 before starting an upgraded client to disable the automatic ODS upgrade. The settings described in the following table only apply if you use the NSF_AlwaysUpdateODS=0 setting.

Hello Juergen,
Good Day!
There are several ways to control the on-disk structure (ODS) versions of client-based databases.
As of Notes 12.0.2, upgrading a Notes client automatically upgrades databases in the data directory to the latest ODS format, superseding any client notes.ini settings used to control ODS format.
Although not recommended, you can use the client notes.ini setting NSF_AlwaysUpdateODS=0 before starting an upgraded client to disable the automatic ODS upgrade.
You can add this setting via desktop policy so that it will not upgrade automatically.
You may also refer to the below documentation.

I hope this is helpful to you. If this answer is helpful to you then please accept the answer. It will benefit others having the same problem / query.

Hello,
I know about NSF_AlwaysUpdateODS=0
but in this case Bookmark, Names,... will not be upgraded to new ODS.
Later, for these files a compact needs to be done without a started notes client. So it is nice to have an automatic ODS Upgrade.
I'm searching for the possibility to exclude only one Database for Update ODS not to prevent all from update
Best Regards
Jürgen
Hello @Juergen Thiel I don't think this is possible and can be an enhancement. You should create a support case so that it can be investigated further by the extended team.
Hello Juergen,
Good Day!
