Hi,

I want to backup my Notes/Domino server (on W2k server computer) for a disaster recovery plan.

What files have i to backup and how to restore it?

Many thanks

Just my own experience:

I’m using BackupExec (with the agent for NSFs);

All executables are on C: drive, all data on D:

Nighlty backup - entire D: drive, plus C:\Lotus\Domino\Notes.ini;

To restore:

  1. Install OS

  2. Install Domino (execs on C:, data on D:), but do not start it

  3. Restore all D: and C:\Lotus\Domino\Notes.ini (overwriting everithing)

I’ve done this drill 4 or 5 times, works flawlessly.

HTH,

Simeon
