Lotus Rooms and Resources Manager - fix busytime.nsf issues
December 17 2009 04:10:09 PM
Most issues with the Reservations database can be tracked down to duplicates, improperly removed rooms and resources, or a corrupt busytime.nsf database. Verify that your resource names are correct, and that they are no longer in the 'mail in databases' section of your Address book if they have been deleted.A corrupted busytime.nsf database can take quite some time to rebuild depending on how big your reservations database is, so look for other problems first.
- You may have users that no longer exist in your domino directory but have outstanding calendars and reservations. Resolve these first. Check the schedule db with: Tell sched validate
-Additionally, check the RnRmgr with: tell rnrmgr validate
To recreate busytime.nsf, you can simply shut the server down and delete the file. Most often however, you can't afford any downtime on that server, so the procedure is to shut down services using it, and delete the file quickly after forcing the server to release the file for a moment.
- Verify that you have the busytime.NTF template on your server before continuing.
- Stop the sched, calconn, and rnrmgr tasks
- Navigate to the notes data directory containing your busytime.NSF database.
- Enter dbcache flush into the server console, and then quickly alternate back to the data directory and delete busytime.NSF
- Once successful, load sched, calconn, rnrmgr and busytime.nsf will begin rebuilding.
