Validation occurs by default at 2 AM; however, you can use this command to force it to occur sooner. Another way to force validation is to stop and restart the Schedule Manager.

Validation can take some time. You must issue this command at all servers where mail files have been removed and/or added to ensure that old free time information is removed and new free time information is added to the free time database on the server.

Don't use this command when you add a new user. The Administration process creates Person documents for users in the Domino Directory before creating their mail file on their mail server. Schedule Manager watches for database creations and automatically picks up new users' mail files.

This command is faster than using the Tell Sched Validate command because it allows you to validate individual users, rather than validating all of the data on a server.
