Category : Mail,Out of Office
This question came up recently on my
current assignment. And more specifically, how do you know if it's
running as a service on a particular server?
A quick check of the usual suspects didn't come up with an answer so I did a little digging.
You can't see it as a server task, under show server or as enabling in the log when a server starts or the router task starts/restarts.
If you run individual configuration documents, you can check those to see if it's set properly. If you run configuration documents based on groups, it's obviously a little harder to know for sure.
You could also check the Domino Administrator, Files tab and open a mail folder to see if any are enabled under the Out of Office column.
But the most surefire way of knowing is to check the log.nsf. If you check it you will see this line:
<date/time> Beginning Out of office service daily maintenance.
Since it is a service, it would be nice to see it through Show Tasks, but that's a pretty easy way to know.
