mention DAOS option for Fixup
-J -D dbname.nsf
Purges or fixes documents in the specified database containing objects stored in the Document Attachment and Object Service (DAOS) in three cases: when a document is corrupted, when the DAOS ticket (reference) is outdated, or when the associated object (.NLO file) is missing.
The -D
option also purges any references to orphaned objects in the DAOS repository, but unlike running Fixup without -D
, using the option preserves the actual objects so that they can be later cleaned up by using the DAOS resynchronization command.
If the .NLO file location information stored in a DAOS ticket is outdated, this option updates it. This option also forces recalculation of the DAOS reference count and size information that you can display using the Show Directory command.
>> Idea: create a New DAOS option for Fixup -J -A dbname.nsf
-A
when the associated object (.NLO file) is missing > keep the Notes document, and remove the attachment reference inside the Notes document.
Use cases:
Customer lose partially the DAOS folder and can not recover from backup.
He has Mail database that can not be unDAOS for archiving.
The process to identify which NLO files has a reference in which notesdocument inside a mail file is VERY long and tedious.
Multiply the pain by the number of Mail files impacted.
This option will save a lot of time
There is new functionality to allow repair of NLOs. This should mostly eliminate the need for a manual repair.
There is also a restore integration option for DAOS in Domino backup & restore.
But if a NLO is not available on any server and cannot be restored, a cleanup would be helpful.
