Creating a Lotus Sametime server

This section explains the steps to create a new Domino server for use with Sametime. Follow

the wizard instructions to create a new Sametime server with the sample data in Table A-1 on

page 386.

1. Make sure that your user profile has sufficient authorities (see “Authorities” on page 386).

2. Start the Domino Administrator server, which is PORTALDOM1 in our example.

3. If necessary, open iSeries Navigator.

4. As shown in Figure A-30, expand your

iSeries server (where you will add a Sametime

server)

→Network → Servers. Select Domino. Right-click and select New Domino

Server

.

Note: After you copy the ID file to the iSeries IFS, the ownership for this IFS object

changes from the QNOTES user profile to the user profile that you were using when

you stored the modified file on the iSeries IFS. Therefore, you must change the

ownership back to QNOTES before you can start the server.

Note: If Domino is not shown, add the plug-in for Domino and it will become available

after you install Lotus Domino on your workstation.

5. The iSeries Navigator window (Figure A-31) displays a message about starting the setup

server. Click

OK.

7. The next page (Figure A-33) asks whether this is the first Domino server (in a new Domino

domain) or an additional Domino server in the existing Domino domain. In our example,

we already have a Domino server, so we select

Additional Domino Server and click >>.

8. The next page (Figure A-34) displays the settings for the new Domino server. Set the

following parameters:

a. In the Web Browsers field, select

HTTP and IIOP. Sametime requires that you use the

Domino HTTP server. Collaborative portlets and components use IIOP to access and

retrieve information from Domino databases. If IIOP is running, portlets that access

Domino-based databases, include a picker feature that is available to portlet users. The

picker feature displays a list of content from Domino databases from which the portlet

user can select. Although IIOP is not required, it is a useful feature for the portal user.

b. In the field Directory Services, do not specify any options. You will rely on either of the

following options:

• The first Domino server (PORTALDOM1), which has LDAP access enabled

• OS/400 Directory Server

c. In the field Enterprise Connection Services, deselect

Decs.

d. In the field Advanced Services, select

Partition.

e. Click

>>.

Note: All Domino servers must be configured for partitioning. Otherwise you cannot

add Domino servers.

9. The next page (Figure A-35) displays the administrator settings. Change the following

settings:

a. In the Server Name field, specify the name of the Sametime server, which is

PORTALST1

in our example.

b. In the Server ID field, type the path to the newly registered Domino server ID file. In our

example, we type

/LOTUS/DOMINO/PORTALDOM1/portalst.id.

c. In the Get Domain Directory from which Server field, specify the name of the first

Domino server, which is

PORTALDOM1 in our example.

d. Select the Local Time Zone accordingly.

e. Leave the other fields as the default or empty.

f. Click

>>.
