You should have already created the following:

• The Vault Service account

• A SQL login account for the Vault Service account

• DNS aliases for the Enterprise Vault server and site

You now need to perform the following tasks to set up Domino server and Lotus Notes on the Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway computer. The following steps must be completed before you install Enterprise Vault on the computer. This ensures that the Enterprise Vault installation program detects that this is a Domino server and will install the extension manager files and other database files.

• Use IBM Domino Administrator client to do the following:

  • Register the Domino server that will run on the Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway computer, and set up the configuration for this server in the Domino Directory.

    See Register the Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway.

  • Identify or create a user ID for the Domino mailbox archiving.

  • Configure the server documents for the Domino mail servers from which Enterprise Vault will archive.

    See Configuring the server document for each target Domino mail server.

• On the computer that will host the Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway, do the following:

  • Install Domino server binaries and configure the Domino server.

    See Install and configure Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway.

  • Install Lotus Notes client binaries and hotfix, and configure the client. Use the ID file that you want to use for Domino archiving.
