RE: DECS for AS400

[Fred Newberry <fnewberry@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes - My point was that the server (DECS Specifically) could not find itself
to do the lookup of what Notes Databases it has available.   In my situation
using a specific IP is not an issue.  The Release Notes that helped me solve
my problem specifically pointed to using a Hard IP because  there may not
have been a DNS available to be changed.

I avoid host table entries like the plague.  I prefer to use a DNS, much
less maintenance, and, more useful for others in your organization.  But
maybe that was your point, maybe he can find the other server because of a
host table entry on his PC, but his server cannot because there is no valid
DNS entry.  If that is a concern then he could always try pinging the
servers from each other.  For example the server running DECS could use try
pinging EP2.

Also I try to avoid using specific IP addresses in my connection documents.
I use names.  Seems like the network gods here are always rearranging the
network, changing addresses, converting to switches and whatnot.  They've
readdressed our 400's.  Using addresses instead of names is just giving
yourself more work.  And, more area to go wrong when the lads play.  And
some people would blame them for change, (like who can stop change?) versus
ourselves for not being adaptable.

I'll bet you are getting the error when you are trying to specify the Notes
Database and Form ?!

Is your Domino Server IP Address defined in a Host Table entry on your PC ?
And/or
Do you have a Connection Document on your server that points your server
name to the specific IP address of the Domino Server ?

What Domino is saying is that it basically cannot find itself.   The
connection document should help.      Check out the Release Notes for this
specific issue, and solution.

I have a problem with DECS for AS400.
When I try to define Notes Application in new  RealTime Activity, I can
see message:

No databases were found no the Notes server 'CN=EP2/O=ENERGOPROJEKT'

What's wrong?
Regards John Sikora.
