Follow the steps on this page to recover a Domino Server Database

For a successful rebuild, it is essential to know the information listed below.

File Name Location
NOTES.INI Domino Program Directory
NAMES.NSF Domino\Data Directory
Any other directory databases (if your environment uses them):
Directory Assistance
Extended Directory Catalog
Condensed Directory Catalog
Schema database
Domino\Data Directory
LOG.NSF Domino\Data Directory
CERTLOG.NSF Domino\Data Directory
*.NTF (any templates you have modified) Domino\Data\*.NTF
*.ID Domino\Data\*.ID
Mail Files Domino\Data\Mail\*.*
Diagnostic Files \Domino\Data\IBM_TECHNICAL_SUPPORT\*.*

Step 1

Create the \domino and \domino\data directories on the new server.

Step 2

Move all the data files from the old computer to the appropriate place on the new computer. The location of the data directory is identified in the NOTES.INI setting Directory=. Data files include:

  • Any file with the filename extension .NSF
  • Server ID file
  • Administrator ID file
  • Certificate ID file
  • Domino Directory for the server (NAMES.NSF)
  • ADMIN4.NSF (Administration Requests Database)
  • All templates (files with the filename extension .NTF)

Step 3

Move all user mail files. By default, the user mail files are stored in the Notes\Data\Mail directory.

Step 4

Move all other databases that were created on the original Domino server.

Step 5

Install the Domino server software on the new computer by following the instructions in the Domino server installation guide. When you install the Domino server software, use the original SERVER.ID, ADMIN.ID and CERT.ID files. Remember to use the same Domino server and Domain names. When the Domino installation begins, you may see a message indicating that the Microsoft Windows Registry needs to modify some settings that are still present from the previous installation. Click Yes to correct this. Start the Domino server in the end.

Note.png Note: For single database restores copy paste the database on to the data directory and restart the domino server.
