Setting Up the Report Pack for Lotus and IBM Notes

To perform your first successful gathering of Lotus Notes or IBM Notes information, you must do the following steps:

1
Create a connection to the Domino domain. As part of the connection process, you must specify the Notes credentials that will be become the default credentials used by all the report pack gathering tasks.
For information about how to connect to a Domino domain and to specify the Notes credentials used for gathering tasks, see Connecting to a Domino Domain .
For information about changing the default Notes credentials, see Specifying Lotus and IBM Notes Credentials .
2
If you are migrating from Notes to Exchange using Quest Notes Migrator for Exchange, the Notes Migration Status reports can show migration progress. To populate the migration reports, you must create a connection to a Notes Migrator for Exchange database.
For information about how to connect to a Notes Migrator database, see Connecting to a Notes Migrator Database .
3
Create and run a Lotus and IBM Notes Users gathering task.
4
Create a Lotus and IBM Notes Databases gathering task.
5
To populate the remaining reports, create Lotus and IBM Notes Mailbox Content and Lotus and IBM Notes Storage gathering tasks.
For information about creating gathering tasks, About the Create Task Wizard .
 
* 
IMPORTANT: To be able to enumerate the databases on the Domino server, the report pack requires that there be a database catalog (catalog.nsf) on each Domino server.

Introducing the MessageStats Console

This section contains information about how to use the MessageStats Console. It describes the kind of information MessageStats gathers, how to configure a default gathering, how MessageStats stores the collected data, and how to view reports based on the gathered information.

The MessageStats Console consists of an MMC (Microsoft Management Console) client console, a scheduler service, and task processors. Like all MMC consoles, the MessageStats Console consists of a window divided into two panes:

•
The left pane displays the console tree. The console tree is a hierarchical structure that shows the items (nodes) that are available in a console. These items can include folders, snap-ins, controls, Web pages, and other tools.
•
The right pane contains the details pane. The details pane shows information and functions that pertain to items in the console tree.

For information about MMC, please see the online help provided by Microsoft.

The MessageStats Node

By default, the Quest Software folder is expanded to show the MessageStats node. If you right-click the MessageStats node, the following options are available:
