Finding out the Version of Lotus Domino Server from Lotus Notes Client
I'm trying to verify the version of Lotus Domino server from a new client I installed, I installed Lotus notes 8.5 and the mail template is of the old 6.5, however I've been told we have the version 8, but my guess is in the mail cluster not all servers are using the new v8 template but just aren't upgraded yet. Would there be anywhere I can find in the logs or notes client where it will show connection details etc..
Thanks in Advance
Two ways to find the version of Domino running on a server:
Open the Name and Address Book on server (usually, names.nsf), go to the Configuration > Servers > All Server Documents view (using left-hand navigator). You will see a list of all servers, and a column for each labeled "Domino Release"
Open the main log database (usually, log.nsf) on the server. This has a series of log documents, ordered by timestamp. After the server re-starts, the log document will contain details from the startup, including the complete Domino release and hotfix number.
Are you able to open the Domino Directory (names.nsf in the root of your server's data directory)?
If so, do so then open the view "Server \ Servers". This will appear in the navigator under "Configuration \ Servers \ All Server Documents", otherwise click on the View menu and select the option "Go to" and open the view from there.
The Domino version is in column 5 of the view (column 4 if you don't count the category column).
