EDITED: I have not been able to find this online anywhere, certainly not from IBM’s website, so if this has already been discussed I apologize. I needed to relocate my DATA directory to another drive (space reasons) and was having issues because prior to 8.x you could just edit the NOTES.INI file and be done with it. My research suggested that I reinstall Domino (this was IBM’s suggestion). This seemed ridiculous to me so I figured this out:
======== THIS WORKS ========
Quit Domino. Relocate the entire DATA folder to its new location. Edit the following:
Here’s a question for those who ARE in the know. There’s a key in the registry marked “Partitions”. I did not install Domino with Partitions so I’ve been deleting this key, but I wonder if that was the right thing to do. There’s a subfolder marked “1” that this Partitions key once pointed to. I left the settings unchanged and my server came up so the assumption is that this key is literally only used if I create a second partition… Does anyone know about this?
As long as you have the disk in another root folder (Different than your current one, and this is obvious) you could create a Directory Link and then just make Domino read databases from there.
I am pretty sure you didnt need the reinstall. Try to make it now. Go to the files view in the administrador, right click in Programa Files\Lotus\etc etc etc, Create - Link.
