Administrator Client
What's new in Domino Administrator - R5 initial release

Domino Administrator is the new administration client for the Domino server. It is an intuitive, task-oriented interface that utilizes a familiar hierarchical server tree metaphor, making finding and switching to servers very easy. To leverage existing skills and experiences of administrators, the Domino Administrator implements common features such as drag and drop, multiple selections using the Shift and Ctrl keys, and right-click context-sensitive menus.

Domino Administrator provides graphical monitoring of servers, services, replication and routing. It groups features and chains steps to simplify task completion. It has six primary tabs to help organize administration and management functions logically:

People & Groups

Use the People & Groups tab for all user and group management, user registration, certification, migration from foreign mail systems and directories, and external directory management.

Files

The Files tab provides a central interface for all database and template management functions, such as moving and compacting databases, ACL management, configuring file replication settings, indexing, and setting quotas.

Server

The Server tab consolidates all server management functions, such as server analysis, monitoring, console commands, and performance information. Server monitoring features give status reports in real time as to which servers and services are running on individual servers.

Messaging

The Messaging tab allows you access to all messaging management functions, such as shared mail management, assigning mailbox quotas, mail routing topology, and message tracking and reporting.

Replication

Use the Replication tab for all replication management functions, such as replication schedule configuration, topology maps, and troubleshooting.

Configuration

The Configuration Tab provides a central location for configuration settings such as servers, messaging, replication, clusters, Web servers, and statistics and events.
