ADMINISTRATION TOOLS

Using the Web Administrator
The IBM® Lotus® Domino™ Web Administrator is almost identical to the IBM® Lotus® Domino™ Administrator with very few exceptions. The user interface looks the same, and most menu options, dialog and information boxes are identical, although the Web Administrator may occasionally display additional information. For example, the Mail tab in the Web Administrator offers additional mail specific statistics -- for example, Mail Routing Schedule, Mail Routing Statistics, and Mail Retrieval Statistics. This information is available in the Domino Administrator; however, it is not displayed the same way.

In addition, there is a new Task tool on the Replication and Mail - Messaging tabs. You can use this tool to issue Tell commands, and to stop, start, and restart replication, router, and messaging tasks.

The Web Administrator includes most of the Domino Administrator functionality. However, the Domino Server Monitor and performance charting are not available in the Web Administrator. And you can restrict further which commands and tabs are available by restricting the roles assigned to an administrator. Information on the availability of specific Web Administrator features and minor changes to how you access a feature are documented throughout the Domino Administrator help documentation.
