CAUTION: Be sure, that you have opened the server configuration database. 2 Updating the databases ================================================================================ 2.1 Updating a template database -------------------------------- Document Connect template databases are Notes databases (.nsf files) created by you to contain your document templates and elements. For example, the sample database shipped with Document Connect (docsampledben.nsf) is a template database. To update the design of each of your Document Connect template databases, use the Document Connect Refresh Design option. Do NOT use the Refresh Design option of Notes! Perform the following steps: 1. If your Notes data directory is not located in the Notes directory, please ensure you have copied the new .ntf files to your data directory. 2. Open Lotus Notes where the fix pack and the Document Connect template database is installed locally. 3. Open the workspace and then the workspace page where the database icon of the template database you want to update is located. Alternatively you can open the bookmarks pane if you have a bookmark for the database. 4. It is recommended that you create a backup of your database before refreshing the design. For this you can use the Database -> New Copy... function of Lotus Notes or you can create a backup copy of the database file using Windows Explorer. 5. Keep in mind that while refreshing the design, all design elements found in the updated template cdtmplxx.ntf are copied to your Document Connect template database. Be sure that you do not overwrite changes you made to the design elements in your Document Connect template database. Keep in mind that it is recommended you make no changes to these design elements. It is recommended that you create a copy of the default Document Connect design element and then make your changes in the copy. 6. Open the database and in the menu bar select Actions -> Document Connect Refresh Design. If the database contains a lot of design elements, this operation can take some time. When the database re-opens, the operation has finished successfully. Because only the design elements shipped with Document Connect are copied to your Document Connect template database you need to manually update any copies you've made of these elements. 2.2 Updating a configuration database ------------------------------------------- The Document Connect configuration database default name is cdConfiguration.nsf To update the design of the Document Connect configuration database, use the Refresh Design option of Notes. Perform the following steps: 1. If your Notes data directory is not located in the Notes directory, please ensure you have copied the new .ntf file to your data directory. 2. Open Lotus Notes where the fix pack and a local replica of the configuration database is installed. 3. Open the workspace and then the workspace page where the database icon of the configuration database you want to update is located. Alternatively you can open the bookmarks pane if you have a bookmark for the database. 4. It is recommended that you create a backup of your database before refreshing the design. For this you can use the Database -> New Copy... function of Lotus Notes or you can create a backup copy of the database file using Windows Explorer. 5. Right click the database icon / bookmark and select Database -> Refresh Design... 6. Depending on updating the design for the Client or Server database: 6.1 Client: Select Local as Server and click OK. 6.2 Server: Select your Domino server's name and click OK. 7. When you are asked to proceed with the refresh click Yes. 3 Trademarks ================================================================================ The following terms are trademarks of the International Business Machines Corporation in the United States, or other countries, or both: Lotus Notes is a trademark of Lotus Development Corporation in the United States, or other countries, or both.
