TUNING
Use a Program document to schedule Compact to run at a regular time. For example, schedule Compact to run with the -B option once a week.
Procedure
1. From the Domino® Administrator, click the Configuration tab.
2. Next to Use Directory on, select the server with the replica of the Domino Directory you want to modify.
3. Expand Server - Programs and then click Add Program.
4. On the Basics tab, complete these fields:
Tip: You can use a pattern-matching character in this field. A pattern-matching character -- the question mark (?) -- allows you to include all servers where one or more subsequent characters in the server name vary, for example: Sales??/Renovations includes Sales01/Renovations, Sales02/Renovations, and so on.
You can also use an asterisk (*) anywhere within a group name; you are not limited to the leftmost component of the hierarchical name. For example: Sales*/Renovations includes Sales001/Renovations, Sales002/Renovations, and so on.
