Helpful Notes.ini settings in Lotus Notes

There are a number of Notes.ini settings you can use to analyze Lotus Notes agent problems. You set these variables in your server’s Notes.ini file when debugging scheduled server-based agents, or in your Notes client’s Notes.ini file when debugging client-based scheduled agents.

Note that these variables are only used for debugging scheduled agents run by the Agent Manager in Lotus Domino. As we mentioned earlier, HTTP, router, console, RunOnServer, and interactive client agents are not run by the Agent Manager. Therefore the Notes.ini variables discussed in this section have no effect on these agents. (We discuss how to debug agents run by tasks other than Agent Manager later in this article.)

Why your Lotus Notes log.nsf might not be purging properly

Log file in lotus notes purging is generally managed by the “Log=” parameter in Notes.ini on Domino Server.

According to the .ini reference, the format for the “Log=” parameter is:

Log=logfilename,logoption,0,days,size,days2(optional)

The fourth parameter, “days”, is what’s important here. Most often, you’ll see that set to 7, for 7 days. Sometimes, you’ll see it set to 30. But either way, you shouldn’t have more than about 30 days in your log.nsf file.

So, the first thing to do is check your Notes.ini and see if somehow that parameter is inflated, for example, if it says something like 365 or even 20000. If so, then your log isn’t being purged because Notes has been told not to purge it.
