Me Personally? I love DAOS...

I think DAOS is great, and why?   Because of the screenshot below.   A database a quarter of that size would make most admins cry, but with DAOS, it hums along beautifully.



Makes me wonder if this type of scenario is what IBM had in mind when they designed DAOS.


Oh, and the size is not an error.   Logically, it actually is 140GB in size, with about 53,000 attachments.

  1. They had LotusLive Notes in mind. Strange that they are "fixing" lots of historic Notes and Domino issues now that they have fully embraced the cloud.

  2. It sounds clever Darren but not true. DAOS was conceived and implemented before we even conceived of LotusLive Notes. Just trying to help with TCO.

  3. How many from those 53,000 attachments were duplicates? Otherwise, those Gb storage just moved onto another folder :)

  4. None of those 53,000 are duplicates. I'm happy the storage is moved to a new folder, if not, I'd have at least 4 databases needed to store the same information, with a 5th on the way.

Policies and Controls are King in the IT Security world

I came across an article by Roger Grimes over at Infoworld on how security policies and controls are the real power when it comes to IT security. Roger mentions the SANS 20 Critical Security Controls for Effective Cyber Defence , which are a great read for anyone looking at updating or auditing your policies for completeness. The SANS top 20 controls are a must for any organization: Inventory of Authorized and Unauthorized Devices Inventory of Authorized and Unauthorized Software Secure Configurations for Hardware and Software on Laptops, Workstations, and Servers Secure Configurations for Network Devices such as Firewalls, Routers, and Switches Boundary Defense Maintenance, Monitoring, and Analysis of Security Audit Logs Application Software Security Controlled Use of Administrative Privileges Controlled Access Based on the Need to Know Continuous Vulnerability Assessment and Remediation Account Monitoring and Control Malware Defenses Limitation and Control

Error 217 - Error creating product object on Domino 64 bit

I'd like to share something with you.   An error that you'll get if you are trying to use ODBC with Domino 8.5.1 64bit. It starts out with an agent error of Error 217.  The text of the error is "Error creating product object" You can read about it here on the Notes/Domino forum . You can find the solution here as well . I guess I'm now waiting for Domino 8.5.2 for a solution for this.   It would have been nice to have had this in the release notes.  It would have help me greatly.

Fun Little Earthquake

It's 1:45pm EST in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. We just had an earthquake.  Not strong enough to damage anything, but enough that I watched people run out of buildings. What a fun Wednesday.
