Hello,

I would like to know if you are able to see the "Lotus Domino Databases" icon available in Backup Exec selection list after installing Lotus Agent ?

If yes, what can you see under that icon ?

Hi... I have the exact same problem.. I have tried everything I can find on this site to try and fix it. I am using version 10.5520 with hotfix 17 installed. The NoteAPI trace does NOT work, so i cant find any information about corrupt databases. The Lotus Domino Databases check box is greyed out, but I can and select the drive that has the data on it, makes Backup Exec hang for a short while, and then returns NO databases. The backup works fine in 8.6, so im stuffed if i know where the problem lies.. Surely there is something that can be done to get this work. Happy to provide more info if required..

I have tried it as a remote agent, and also as backup exec installed on the same server as the domino server. Both give the same error, with no databases to back up.

Search for notes.ini on the Lotus Notes server and make sure that there is one in the domino folder

Yes, there is a Notes.ini, in the Domino directory. I checked it out and its pointing to the correct directories. Any other suggestions ??

I too have similar problem. When in backup selection list, there is icon for Lotus Domino databases - however the list is truncated - many subdirectories under the Lotus\Domino \data subdirectory are not listed and consequently not backed up.

I can "see" and backup all Notes Domino files including .nsfs with the AOFO option - but that's not the proper way to do it and not the reason I purchased the Notes/Domino BE agent.

We are running Win 2003 Svr at SP1 with BE V10.0 Rev 5484 SP1, Hotfix 17, 8, 23

Note - BE did "see" the databases when it was installed in May and stopped "seeing" them about the time BE SP1 and Hotfix 17 were installed. Hotfix 17 was need to keep BE from stalling when backing up Notes but I wonder if it is now causing other problems. RANT has been reinstalled numerous times.

Thanks for any help.
