I had a couple of ideas for this week's edition of "Show-N-Tell" Thursday, so at least I should be prepared for next week's as well.
This week, for you Developers out there that have taken Jess up on spinning up your own server, I want to point out two little things that may make it so that agents don't run on your server. These are found in your Server Document. The first is the field "Fully qualified internet host name." It is on the Basics tab of the server document. Make sure that this field is the same name as your server in DNS. It can be different than the Domino Server name. For example, if the server (the actual Operating System server name) is in DNS as dominoserver1.company.com, that is what you enter in there.
The other field, on the Ports - Notes Network Ports tab, is the Net Address. This can be either the IP Address of the server or the Domino server name as it appears in DNS. In the example above, you may also have a DNS entry for the Domino server name. Let's call the Domino server DOMSERV1. In DNS, DOMSERV1 may have an IP Address of 10.10.10.100. You can enter either in that field, but I prefer the DNS entry, DOMSERV1. That way, if the server changes IP Addresses, you don't have to go hunting through Server Documents, Connection Documents, etc., changing IP Addresses.
These changes do not require a reboot of the Domino server to take effect.
So, if you have a new server, and notice that agents aren't running, start troubleshooting by looking at these two fields in the Server Document.
