Setting Up Domino and Installing Lotus Notes
In this chapter, you do the following tasks in the order listed:
1. Prepare the Domino server(s) for Cisco Unity. See the “Preparing the Domino Server(s) for
Cisco Unity” section on page 6-1.
2. Install and configure IBM Lotus Notes on the Cisco Unity server. See the “Installing and
Configuring Lotus Notes on the Cisco Unity Server” section on page 6-4.
When you are finished with this chapter, return to Chapter 1, “Overview of Mandatory Tasks for
Installing Cisco Unity” to continue installing the Cisco Unity system.
Note The tasks in the list reference detailed instructions in the Cisco Unity installation guide and in other
Cisco Unity documentation. Follow the documentation for a successful installation.
Preparing the Domino Server(s) for Cisco Unity
Note Cisco assumes that the Domino environment is already set up and working before the Cisco Unity
system is installed.
In the procedure in this section, you:
• Create a Domino group called UnityServers.
• Register a Person with Lotus Notes as the mail system for the Cisco Unity server.
• In the Access Control List (ACL) for Admin4.nsf, grant the UnityServers group Editor permissions.
Admin4.nsf is used by the Administrative Process task running on each Domino server. When a
Domino user is imported into Cisco
Unity, Cisco Unity submits a signed request to the Adminp task,
which adds the request to Admin4.nsf. IBM Lotus Domino Unified Communications (DUC) for
Cisco then modifies the user’s mail file with Cisco
Unity Unified Messaging functionality. The
changes are made to the database on the server that contains the user’s mail file. The UnityServers
group requires editor-level permissions in the Admin4.nsf database on each server containing the
mail file for a Cisco
Unity subscriber.
Domino security policy requires Cisco Unity to digitally sign requests. Requests are documents, and
signing documents requires modifying them, so the UnityServers group needs privileges to sign
requests submitted to the Administrative Process database. This corresponds to editor-level
permissions in an ACL.
