How can we know the server name and database path by using databse replica id.
Subject: Lotus notes
You don’t give a lot of details as to what you are trying to do, but I’ll take a guess.
If you have a known Replica ID and want to know what copies are on what servers, then you should start with the Catalog database for your Domain.
There is a view there (Databases \ By Replica ID) that you can look at, or run a @BDLOOKUP on, to see the database entries. Those records will contain the Server name and the Database Path.
Note that this will only tell you about copies in your domain. It won’t help if the database has replicas on other domains, or with local replicas.

Hi Graham,
Thanks for your reply.
but, we do not know the server name also.

Please supply more information, as I don’t understand what your situation is.
Are you saying that you have a DB Replica ID but don’t even know what Notes Domain it’s in ? Are you working in an environment that has multiple domains ?
Unless you have a complex setup, you should have a single domain, and so the contents of the Name and Address should be identical on every server. You don’t need to access the same one that the database exists on.

OPEN the DB (if you can)
FILE > Database > Properties
Try that

In the Domain Catalog (Catalog.nsf) there is a view, Databases ->‘By Replica ID’, may be that can help.
