The internal address of the primary Domino mail server is 192.168.1.2. It seems some folks have their home router set to assign that address. When the user brings his laptop into the office the address is recognized as unavailable and the laptop is assigned a new address. It takes about 2 seconds
DHCP Server logging (server is 192.168.1.67):
6:48:40 AM DHCP:DHCPDISCOVER from 00:16:d3:25:15:ab via 192.168.1.67
6:48:41 AM DHCP:DHCPOFFER from 192.168.1.208 from 00:16:d3:25:15:ab from 192.168.1.67
6:48:41 AM DHCP:DHCPREQUEST from 192.168.1.208 from 00:16:d3:25:15:ab via 192.168.1.67
6:48:41 AM DHCP:DHCPACK from 192.168.1.208 from 00:16:d3:25:15:ab from 192.168.1.67
But that’s enough for anyone working on a mail message in their server replica to get a “Server not responding”. The Notes client does not offer to switch to the cluster mate. Instead the user must hit Ctrl-Break, and can then usually can continue working normally but in some cases remains stuck and has to abandon the message.
Anyone else seen this? Is this working as designed?
