Domino Selection List

Can you send me a list or link of all the selections that should be made to backup a domino server that would be needed in the event of a restore.

Some that I try to backup are throwing errors and i'm sure are probably covered performing the database backup but really need a list.

Hello,


The following file types appear in the view for the Lotus Domino server:

◆ filename.nsf - Lotus Domino database files
◆ filename.ntf - Lotus Domino template files
◆ filename.box - shared mail database
◆ filename.dsk - cache files

You must back up all of these files in order to properly recover Lotus Domino
Databases.

Just a note there are no *.dsk files on the server anywhere. Is this critical?

Hello,

the Desktop file (.DSK) is a configuration file used by Lotus Domino clients to save their settings in. The loss of this file would cause the user to have to reconfigure their client settings, but it would otherwise be recreated.


Can this file not be seen in the selections list?
