Backing up your server data
Before installing IBM® Lotus® Sametime®, you should back up all important server data.
About this task
* names.nsf - This is optional if you can replicate from another Domino server.
* notes.ini - Back up this file for possible reference after upgrade.
* da.nsf - Back up this file if you are using directory assistance.
* vpuserinfo.nsf - This contains user storage and privacy information, such as buddylists.
* meetingserver.ini, sametime.ini, stconfig.nsf (It is not necessary to backup these files on i5/OS as they are saved automatically during the upgrade process)
* All recorded meeting files (.rap)
* All customized data files, templates or applications (.ntf, .mdm, .scr, .bmp, .mac, .smi, .tbl)
* All ID files, desktop.dsk, and pubnames.ntf.
