ADMINISTERING

Moving a database without using the Administration Process
Use this procedure to move a database to a server in another Domino® domain or to move a database when you do not have access to the Domino Administrator. Do not use this procedure to move a mail file.

Before you begin

You must have the following access:


Procedure

1. Choose File -> Replication -> New Replica to create a replica of the database on the destination server.

2. Make a note of the file name and path of the original database. You will include this information when you notify users of the move.

3. Choose File -> Application -> Delete to delete the original database.

4. If the database receives mail, change the Mail-In Database document in the Domino Directory to reflect the new location.

5. In the ACLs of any replicas of the database, remove the name of the server that you moved the database from and add the name of the destination server.

6. Notify users that you have moved the database.
