Hi guys!!!,
I hope you guys and gals can help me with this problem.
Im using 6.0 domino servers, 6.5 client and designer
My problem is this scenario:
I have 5 servers, and a lot of users on each server.
I made 2 databases, lets name it DB1, and DB2.
These database have replicas on each server, having the same path locations.
DB1 has a form that has an embedded view and this view is from DB2.
What I would like to happen is that when users who access DB1 from server1, and opened the
above mentioned form, the system should access the embedded view, which is linking with
DB2, that is also in server1.
This problem arose because there is no way for programmers to programmatically set up the
source location of the embedded view…not like outline entries.
Is there any way to ensure that when users access any server, the accessed embedded view
should also be on the same server that is currently being accessed? (FIRST QUESTION)
I have noticed that notes do scroll on the LIST of servers I have set-up in my notes
client. For example, let say I opened the DB1 replica on Server3, then after I opened the
form with the embedded view, my status bar displayed “connecting to Server1…”. Now given
this scenario, I theorized that notes accessed the list of servers, just like the one
displayed when you press CTRL-O then click on the server field, which displays the list of
servers in a dropdown fashion. And my list is sorted this way:
Server1
Server2
Server3
Server4
Server5
So I thought if I limit the list, for example if I take out Server1, then my status bar in
the above scenario would be displaying “connecting to Server2…”. Therefore, if I take
out all the other servers and only retain the server name that is currently being accessed
by the user, I could use this as a workaround in the above mentioned problem.
And I would like to ask, how can I access the this server list programmatically. Is there
any class available for it? if not, are there any APIs available for it to be accessed.
(SECOND QUESTION).
I have looked for it in the web, but to no avail.
Any kind of help would be much appreciated. Thank you very much!
