Local Sheduled Agent On several clients for Same Application

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Hi.

Have an application that needs to be deployed on 20 client machines.

Application replicates from Servers to clients and resides on the client

Have a Local Scheduled agent that runs on every client every 30 minutes

Agent collects data from a folder on the pc and saves to a document.

Documents get replicated to the server reguarly.

Each Client uses a seperate id e.g. User1, User2, User3.

All users are in a group that have editor access to the database.

I can get the agent to kick off and start but get execution access on the agent.

The Servers address book is also replicated to the Local Machine and is set in the preferences as the secondary address book, the users are in this address book in a group which has editor access to the database.

Does the Local names.nsf get used for access control and do i need to put the group and users in the local names.nsf?

Any idea how i can get the agent to get execution privelages for all users?

Scheduled Agents is enabled and backgroung agents is enabled in the Database properties

The agent does not use any UI commands is lotus script.

The client machines do not have designer installed and do not want to have each user having to do any configuration if possible to get the agent to run

Would appreciate any insight on how to get this working

Many thanks

Mike

Hi Mike

Your all users have editor access to database but they may not have agent execution privelages.

In order to run your agent by all users you can do following

1.Open the agent in Designer.

2.Click Options.

3.Select “Available to Public Access Users.”

This will enable all users to run that agent. else

Set Property:=

"Run agent onthe behalf of " & select admin user name who has access to run agent.

Hope I have understood your problem correctly…

Cheers

If your agent is reading files on the user’s computers, you’ll also need to make sure that the runtime security level for the agent (second tab on the agent properties) is set to at least ‘2. Allow Restricted Operations’

Mike - please be more specific about what error you are getting and when you are getting it. Is it at the point when the agent tries to run? Is it during the code at some point? Can you run the agent manually on the local client?

Hi,

Have you checked the ECL on the local clients?
