write-timestamps-flag Write Time Stamps?	Specifies whether ndsrep writes a special driver time stamp on synchronized Notes parameter.Set it to True to have ndsrep write a driver-specific time stamp on all Notes objects that are synchronized. This special driver time stamp is used to determine Notes object attribute updates more accurately. Set it to False to have ndsrep determine Notes object attribute updates based on existing Notes object time stamps. The default value is True.	<definition display-name="Write Time Stamps?" name="write-timestamps-flag" type="boolean"> <description> </description> <value>true</value> </definition>

Parameter Name and Common Description

Description

XML to Define Driver Parameters

check-attrs-flag

Check Attributes

The ndsrep check and publish attributes parameter. Set it to True if only modified attributes within the Publisher filter should be sent to the Identity Vault via the Publisher channel when a Notes object is modified. Set it to False if all sync attributes specified within the Publisher filter should be sent to the Identity Vault via the Publisher channel when a Notes object is modified.

The default value is True.

config-db-name

NDSREP Configuration Database

The ndsrep configuration database filename created and maintained by the driver. This parameter controls which .nsf database the driver shim uses to write its publication options.

The full path of the filename should be represented with respect to the operating system hosting Domino. When using this parameter, ndsrep needs to be loaded with the -f filename parameter.

ndsrep load example:

load ndsrep NotesDriver2 -f /home/notes/mycfg.nsf

If this parameter is not present, by default the Configuration database filename is set to dsrepcfg.nsf and is normally located in the Domino data folder.

If the name of your driver includes spaces, then you must put quotes around the name.

<value>mycfg.nsf</value> </definition>

dn-format

DN Format

The Distinguished Name format used by ndsrep. Valid values are NOTES_TYPED, NOTES, SLASH_TYPED, SLASH, LDAP, LDAP_TYPED, DOT, and DOT_TYPED. The default is SLASH.

<value>SLASH</value> </definition>

instance-id

NDSREP Configuration Instance

The ndsrep configuration instance name created and maintained by the driver within the ndsrep configuration database. This parameter controls which database note the driver shim uses to read and write its publication options within the ndsrep configuration database. When it uses this parameter, ndsrep utilizes the settings of this configuration instance when loaded with this instance name as a parameter.

If this parameter is not present, by default the configuration instance is set to the name of the driver (the driver RDN in eDirectory.)

ndsrep load example:

load ndsrep NotesDriver2

If the name of your driver includes spaces, then you must put quotes around the name.

<value>NotesDriver2</value> </definition>

loop-detect-flag

Enable Loop Back Detection

Loopback detection parameter. Set it to True to enable loopback detection. Set it to False to disable loopback detection.

ndsrep-console-trace-level

NDSREP Console Trace Level

Possible values are SILENT, NORMAL, VERBOSE, or DEBUG.

If this parameter is not present, the default setting is NORMAL.

<value>NORMAL</value> </definition>

See the Note at the top of Publisher Options, then use the values under the Description heading for this parameter.

schedule-units

NDSREP Schedule Units

The ndsrep polling interval unit. Valid values are SECONDS, MINUTES, HOURS, DAYS, and YEARS. The default value is SECONDS.

<value>SECONDS</value> </definition>

See the Note at the top of Publisher Options, then use the values under the Description heading for this parameter.

schedule-value

NDSREP Schedule Value

The ndsrep polling interval unit value. This value is utilized in conjunction with the schedule-units configuration parameter.

polling-interval

Polling Interval

Notes Driver Shim publisher polling interval, specified in seconds.

pub-heartbeat-interval

Publication Heartbeat Interval

Publication Heartbeat Interval specified in minutes. If no documents are sent on the Publisher channel for this specified interval (duration of time), a heartbeat document is sent by the driver. A value of 0 indicates that no heartbeat documents are to be sent.

If this parameter is not present, by default the publication heartbeat interval is 0.

pub-heartbeat-interval-seconds

Publication Heartbeat Interval (in seconds)

Publication Heartbeat Interval specified in seconds. This parameter can be used instead of pub-heartbeat-interval to provide finer interval size granularity. If no documents are sent on the Publisher channel for this specified interval (duration of time), then a heartbeat document is sent by the driver. A value of 0 indicates that no heartbeat documents are to be sent.

If this parameter is not present, by default the publication heartbeat interval is 0.

write-timestamps-flag

Write Time Stamps?

Specifies whether ndsrep writes a special driver time stamp on synchronized Notes parameter.Set it to True to have ndsrep write a driver-specific time stamp on all Notes objects that are synchronized. This special driver time stamp is used to determine Notes object attribute updates more accurately. Set it to False to have ndsrep determine Notes object attribute updates based on existing Notes object time stamps.

The default value is True.
