ND7 Upgrade Seminar day review and a question for all of you
Tags :ND7 Upgrade Seminar Domino 7
First things, best practices on backups and transaction logging. An attendee was using true incremental backups against transaction logs. Unfortunately, backups were reaching 16 hours and restores took hours to roll the full and then playback all the reads and writes to the point they desired. I understand their pain. Plus you are dealing with numerous tapes for a restore to a working point. So the question is who uses true incremental backups through transaction logging and what is your restore time? Are you seeing it to be beneficial to run in that scenario or perform full backups each night and make restores faster while slowing backup times?
As for the review, only a couple enterprises left on Domino 5 in the audience. That was nice to see that they were finally getting ready to upgrade. Questions were very direct and dealt with specific scenarios and issues, not ones that everyone seemed to have. The demonstration on DDM was, as usual, long and generated great reviews.
Sametime was in swing in numerous companies, LEI did not get favorable comments and web presence through Domino servers was not as strong as I expected. we talked about almost all the add-ons, even ran into a company that ran DUCS.
So a wonderfully friendly bunch, lots of laughter and fun the whole day. You can find the pictures so far right here.
