INSTALLING


Installing the OpenSocial component
In addition to the existing (and familiar) IBM® Domino® server installation wizard, in order to supply OpenSocial features from a Domino server, you must run an IBM Domino Social Edition OpenSocial component 9.0.1 installer wizard to support IBM Domino 9.0.1 Social Edition embedded experiences for your client users.

Before you begin

If your organization intends to provide OpenSocial features to iNotes client as well as Notes clients, any Domino server where the OpenSocial component is installed must have a ServerTasks entry in its NOTES.INI file to support DOTs (Domino OSGi Tasklet Service). For details on the entry, see the related topic in the Notes and Domino wiki iNotes administrative documentation on configuring automatic updates for widgets.
