Start Lotus Domino

Lotus Domino 6.x and Lotus Domino 7.x versions are not virtual-session aware. Therefore, before backing up data using CA ARCserve Backup Agent for Lotus Domino, you must start Lotus Domino using one of the following modes:

• Service mode
• Application mode

  You can start Lotus Domino in the Application mode by logging in through the console (instead of through a virtual session).

  Important! We recommend that you log in through the console, because, if you log in through a virtual session to start Lotus Domino in the Application Mode, you may experience some difficulties in using the agent.
