Has anyone figured out a way to run inotes address books synchronization automatically on a schedule? Our users will not remember to manually run synchronization.
Thanks

Suggestion: Try scheduling the Synchronize Address Book agent.

The agent needs to access local database. Scheduled agent would not be able to do that.

Definitively it’s doesn’t work !!I already tryed it once in R5 and now in R6 I tryed again… I searched by any ways to do that… but I can’t… if you get another way to do this automatically, please post here !
Schedulle the agent really doesn’t work… you right…

Subject: Use a database event?
Why not use a database event such as PostOpen in the user’s mail database to start an agent. This agent could access a custom profile document that would contain information such as the last time the sync happened/when to run next. Assuming the proper criteria is met, the sync agent then be called. That way you can set it up to sync every couple of days or so.
I guess one concern would be issues where users access their mail file from a different PC, and thus populate the wrong PNAB (roaming users would be OK).
Subject: Good idea.
I could compare the address book owner to the username to prevent wrong syncronization.
Subject: RE: Cannot be that simple.
Why not make it scheduled and enable “Enable scheduled local agents” in user preferences (under Startup Options)? Just make sure that the ‘server’ in the agent is set to ‘Local’.
Subject: if the user has a local replica of his mailfile it works…
Just schedule the agent to run on local.

You’re right. I must have posted that suggestion before I had my daily caffeine dosage.
