I found out Friday that IBM Notes Traveler was available on at the Google Play Store. As I read the description, I noticed that the app was “compatible with IBM Notes Traveler server version 8.5.3.3 and later fixpacks, as well as 8.5.3 Upgrade Pack 1, 8.5.3 Upgrade Pack 2, and 9.x”, and since our server is in that range, I had to pull the switch!
The device worked great all weekend! Now to review that upgrade documentation…
I cross-posted this at SocialBizUG.org‘s Detroit Notes Professionals Community… If you haven’t joined the community (or SocialBizUG.org), now’s the time to join! (SocialBizUG.org is the website formerly known as LotusUserGroup.org)
The concept for ‘LotusBeers’ (now IBMSocialBeerz… thanks Stuart McIntyre!) is simple… we get together at a central (or near-central) location after work one day and have a couple of beverages… notice I did not say “have a presentation”, “workshop”, “seminar” or even “conference”. I’m just talking about the concept of ‘social’ in its purest and original form… SOCIALIZING!
If you are interested, let me know where you work so a ‘near-central’ location can be picked via email, DM or by leaving a comment.
Hopefully this can be the rebirth of DNP!
Upgrading to IBM Notes 9…

Here is another one that got me… IBM Technotes to the rescue! (This one is IBM Technote #1414908 – Group Document Print and Print Preview only shows First Three Group Members):
Question
When you Print or Print Preview a Group document, the output only shows the first three member names in the members fieldSteps to reproduce:
Open a Group Document, either in the Personal Address Book (Contacts) or in the Domino Directory. Ensure the Group Document Members field has more than 3 names. When you Print or Print Preview the document, the output only shows the first three member names in the members field. The field itself appears to be truncated in the print output.
Cause
New print functionality was introduced in 8.5.1. The user must now select “expand the name fields content when printing” in the print options before printing the group document.Answer
This issue was reported to Lotus Notes Quality Engineering in SPR WTON7XAJ8N. It was determined that this is working as designed. New print functionality was introduced in 8.5.1. The user must now select “expand the name fields content when printing” in the print options before printing the group document.
I knew that would work for emails (the To: CC: and BCC: fields), but I never thought about the Members fields in group documents.
Hopefully this will help someone else…

There have been times that the Message Tracking (MTC) functionality on my Domino servers have gone south. It’s rare but it does happen. When it does, it needs to be deleted and recreated. Fortunately, IBM has created a Technote (Reference #1221830) for just such an occasion.
Question
What are the steps to recreate the Message Tracking Store (MTSTORE.NSF) database and its associated MTDATA subdirectory?Answer
To recreate the MTSTORE.NSF and MTDATA subdirectory, do the following:1. Shut down the Domino Administrator client.
2. Issue Tell Router quit on the server console.
3. Delete the MTDATA subdirectory at the Operating System level*. MTDATA is a subdirectory of the Domino data directory.
*If you receive a message that the directory is in use, issue the following command on the server console:
dbcache flush
and then try to delete the directory again.
4. Issue Load Router on the server console.
5. Launch the Domino Administrator client and select the Files tab. You should see a MTDATA folder, which contains the new MTSTORE.NSF.
Restarting the Router task also restarts the MTCollector task. The MTDATA subdirectory is created when Message Tracking is enabled in the Configuration document and the Router task is restarted.
If you’re not sure what Message Tracking is, take a look at IBM Technote #1165592 for more details. (This also has a chart with associated tasks and commands! Thanks IBM!)
SocialBizUG.org (formerly LotusUserGroup.org) had a contest to see how many buttons people kept from different Lotuspheres and other conferences through the years. I found a few of them, but I know that a few more are in boxes under boxes in my basement. I’ve got to get in there and see how many more I have… 
What do you think?
