Chapter 1 Getting Started With IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing Welcome to IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing (Sametime ) 6.5.1 for iseries TM! This product merges Web server technology, IBM Lotus Notes technology, T.120 data-conferencing technology, and online awareness technology to allow Lotus Notes and Web browser clients to participate in live, interactive online meetings, instant messaging, and group chat sessions. This enhances the workplace by placing powerful, real-time collaboration tools on the desktop of every user in a Sametime community. Now you can combine these technologies with the reliability and scalability of an iseries server. About Installing and Managing Sametime for iseries In addition to documenting the aspects of Sametime that are unique to iseries, this installation guide provides an administrator with the necessary steps for completing the following tasks: Planning and preparing the Sametime environment Installing Sametime Adding Sametime to a Domino TM server Managing the Sametime server Making the Sametime Connect TM Client available to users Note Although you install Sametime on a Domino server, this book will refer to the Domino server with Sametime installed as the Sametime server. For a checklist of the tasks you must complete for a Sametime deployment, see Appendix A Sametime Installation and Configuration Checklist. Providing documentation feedback Lotus Sametime User Assistance Feedback is a form posted on the Internet that allows you to provide feedback pertaining to your experiences with this installation guide. This form is available at the following Web site: http://doc.notes.net/feedback/sametime.nsf/install_iseries?openform 1

What's new in Sametime 6.5.1 for iseries This section summarizes some of the major new features for Sametime 6.5.1. For complete information on new features applicable to all server platforms, see the IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing (Sametime) 6.5.1 Release Notes. All Sametime documentation is available from the Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing product page, which can be accessed from the following Web address: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus/products Name change and release number sequence The previous release of this product was named Sametime 3.1. For this release, the product has been renamed to IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing 6.5.1. References to the product name have not been changed in most of the documentation and user interface. Consider the name Sametime to be synonymous with IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing when reading the product documentation. The release number has changed from 3.1 to 6.5.1 in order to be consistent with the Domino server version with which this product is designed to work. Other versions of Domino are also supported. See Sametime server requirements for more information. Domino Multi-versioning Sametime 6.5.1 is supported on Domino 6.5.1, 6.5.0, or 6.0.3. These versions of Domino are all multi-version capable. This means that multiple versions of Domino can run on the same iseries Logical Partition (LPAR). However, only one version of Sametime can run on a single LPAR. For more information on multi-version capable releases of Domino, see Using Domino for iseries Multi-version Capabilities in Chapter 12 of the Lotus book Installing and Managing Domino 6.5 for iseries. Audio Bridge Services An administrator can integrate teleconferences as a meeting type available through the Sametime Meeting Room. To enable support for teleconferencing services, the administrator manually configures the Audio Bridge Services required to connect the Sametime server to a third party service provider. Enhanced Save Whiteboard capability In previous releases of Sametime for iseries, it was necessary to perform additional complex setup and configuration steps in order to enable users to save changes and updates made to the contents of the whiteboard during a meeting. For Sametime 6.5.1, the process is much simpler. However, OS/400 Version 5 Release 2 or later is required in order to save whiteboard contents. 2 Installing and Managing Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing for iseries

Enhanced LDAP directory searching capabilities Administrators can write Java TM classes to customize the logic by which Sametime conducts LDAP directory searches. These Java classes can control both the manner in which Sametime searches the LDAP directory and the formatting of user names returned from LDAP searches. Directory mapping This feature enables the Sametime server to accept an authentication token created from an LDAP directory other than the LDAP directory accessed by the Sametime server. This ensures that Sametime features, such as Sametime Links, can operate on portal servers when the portal server and the Sametime server access different LDAP directories. Force screen sharing to use 8-bit color An administrator can enable this feature to improve the screen sharing performance in Sametime meetings. Netegrity SiteMinder token support Sametime 6.5.1 now provides support for Netegrity SiteMinder authentication tokens. Chat client filtering The administrator can configure the server to reject connection attempts from chat clients from earlier Sametime releases. These clients have less stringent security mechanisms than the Sametime 6.5.1 clients. Security updates Support for encryption of the buddy lists, privacy lists, and presence status information that is transmitted from the server to the clients. Announcements sent from Sametime Connect clients can also be encrypted. Do not disturb feature available from Meeting Room client Meeting Room client users can set their online status to Do not disturb. This capability was previously available only in the Sametime Connect client. Obsolete Features Sametime 6.5.1 no longer provides support for the following features: TeamRoom and Discussion databases Microsoft NetMeeting or other H.323 clients AOL Instant Messenger 1 Getting Started With IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing 3

Differences in Sametime for iseries Sametime for iseries differs from Sametime on other platforms in the following ways: Sametime for iseries supports multiple Sametime servers on the same LPAR of an iseries server. This is done by creating multiple Domino partitioned servers and configuring them as Sametime servers. For this environment to be successful, it is important that TCP/IP is carefully configured. For more information, see technote 7002647 Sametime for iseries: Multiple Sametime Servers on Same System at the following Web address: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=203&uid=swg27002647 You can integrate Sametime and Lotus Team Workplace on the same iseries server. To set up this environment, you must follow specific setup instructions. For more information, see technotes 7003786 QuickPlace for iseries: Enabling Integration with Sametime and 1091353 Sametime for iseries: Can Sametime and QuickPlace Be Installed on the Same System? at the following Web addresses: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=203&uid=swg27003786 http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=203&uid=swg21091353 In order to have meeting attachments displayed automatically on the whiteboard of a Sametime meeting, you must install and configure an optional component of Sametime for iseries, called Sametime Conversion Services. If you choose not to install Sametime Conversion Services, users must use the Sametime Print Capture Utility to process most meeting attachments for display on the whiteboard. For more information on installing and configuring Sametime Conversion Services, see the Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing (Sametime) 6.5.1 Conversion Services Setup Guide. All Sametime documentation is available from the Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing product page, which can be accessed from the following Web address: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus/products 4 Installing and Managing Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing for iseries

About upgrading to Sametime 6.5.1 for iseries Sametime 6.5.1 for iseries supports upgrading from Sametime 2.5, 3.0, 3.0a, or 3.1 for iseries. Be aware of the following information when upgrading to Sametime 6.5.1 for iseries: Be sure to review the section Sametime for iseries requirements later in this chapter, as the information has changed for this release. If you are currently using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol to encrypt connections with your Sametime server, there is a new requirement for Sametime 6.5.1. You must install Cryptographic Access Provider 128-bit for iseries (5722AC3) on your iseries server. There is no charge for 5722AC3, but you must contact your IBM Business Partner or IBM representative to order it. If you are using SSL, do not upgrade to Sametime 6.5.1 until you have installed 5722AC3. If you plan to enable the capability to save whiteboard contents, OS/400 V5R2 or later is required. As in previous Sametime releases, you must also install OS/400 - Portable Application Solutions Environment (PASE), 5722SS1 option 33. iseries Tools for Developers, 5799PTL, is no longer required for this capability. Any existing Sametime servers must be stopped before you use the LODRUN or RSTLICPGM commands to upgrade to Sametime 6.5.1. If a Sametime server is running, the upgrade will fail. It is important to carefully consider the order in which you upgrade products on your system. If you are already running a release of Domino 6 that is supported with Sametime 6.5.1, such as Domino 6.0.3 or 6.5.0, it is recommended that you upgrade to Sametime 6.5.1 first, even if you plan to upgrade to Domino 6.5.1. Make sure that Sametime 6.5.1 is functioning properly before you upgrade Domino. If you are currently running QuickPlace 3.0.1 and Sametime 3.1 in the same iseries LPAR using Domino 5.0.12, it is recommended that you first upgrade Domino to 6.5.1 and QuickPlace to Team Workplace 6.5.1. Sametime 3.1 will continue to work with Domino 6.5.1, so you have the option to schedule your Sametime upgrade for a later time. Domino multi-versioning provides you with additional options when running Lotus Team Workplace (QuickPlace) and Sametime on the same iseries server. 1 Getting Started With IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing 5

For previous releases, you could only install one release of Domino within a single iseries LPAR, which made it necessary to use the same Domino release for both Sametime and QuickPlace. However, all of the Domino releases supported by Sametime 6.5.1 are multi-version capable, that is, multiple releases of Domino can be installed on the same iseries server. Therefore, while you must install Domino 6.5.1 in order to run Team Workplace 6.5.1, you can run Sametime 6.5.1 on Domino 6.0.3 or 6.5.0 if you prefer. For more information about Domino multi-versioning, see Using Domino for iseries Multi-version Capabilities in Chapter 12 of the Lotus book Installing and Managing Domino 6.5 for iseries. For the latest information about running Sametime and Team Workplace on the same iseries server, see technote 1091353 Sametime for iseries: Can Sametime and QuickPlace Be Installed on the Same System? at the following Web address: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=203&uid=swg21091353 If you are upgrading your Domino server from R5 to Domino 6, be aware that the LDAP task is enabled by default, even if the server was not running the LDAP task before the upgrade. To disable LDAP on your Domino server, run the following from any OS/400 command line: CHGDOMSVR SERVER(<Domino_server_name>) DIRSRV(*NONE) If you have changed any values in the meetintgserver.ini file, be aware that only the following settings are preserved when you upgrade to a newer release of Sametime for iseries: Attachment Conversion Services settings located in this section: [SOFTWARE\Lotus\Sametime\MeetingServer\ConversionServices] DISPLAY= setting to enable the capability to save whiteboard contents located in this section: [SOFTWARE\Lotus\Sametime\MeetingServer\Services\MaterialManager] StartWaitTime= setting located in this section: [SOFTWARE\Lotus\Sametime\MeetingServer\Services] ConfigWaitTime= setting located in this section: [SOFTWARE\Lotus\Sametime\MeetingServer] If you need to examine the contents of the original meetingserver.ini file after upgrade, it is saved in the server data directory as meetingserver.bak. Additionally, the pre-upgrade versions of sametime.ini and stconfig.nsf are saved in a subdirectory of the server data directory. The name of the subdirectory is ST25BU, ST30BU, ST30ABU, or ST31BU depending on which release of Sametime was running prior to the upgrade to Sametime 6.5.1. 6 Installing and Managing Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing for iseries

Before installing Sametime 6.5.1, back up the following in case an error occurs during the upgrade process: names.nsf - This is optional if you can replicate from another Domino server. vpuserinfo.nsf - This contains user storage and privacy information, such as buddylist. streg.nsf - Back up this file only if self-registration is enabled. stconf.nsf - This file contains meeting documents and attachments. *.RAP - This will back up the recorded meeting files, typically found in a subdirectory. da.nsf - Back up this file if you are using directory assistance. notes.ini - Back up this file for possible reference. Back up any Teamrooms and Discussion databases. Back up any custom templates or applications. In order to save the contents of the meeting room whiteboard, Sametime 6.5.1 no longer requires the use of OS/400 - Portable Application Solutions Environment (PASE), 5722SS1 option 33, and iseries Tools for Developers, 5799PTL. Therefore, the default configuration has been changed to allow users to save the contents of the whiteboard. If your current configuration does not allow users to save the whiteboard contents, the setting will be changed when you upgrade to Sametime 6.5.1. After the upgrade, the Sametime administrator can adjust this setting if necessary by selecting the following links from the Sametime server home page: Administer the Server -> Configuration -> Meeting Services -> General If you are upgrading from Sametime 2.5, be aware of the following: Sametime 3.x and 6.5.1 use the Domino single signon which requires the fully qualified Domain Name Server (DNS) name of the server for a successful authentication. Once you upgrade to a later release of Sametime, your end users must enter the fully qualified DNS name of the Sametime server, such as sametimeserver.meetings.acme.com, in the Web browser URL locator when accessing the Sametime server. Before upgrading, you should verify certain items in your current TCP/IP configuration, even if your current Sametime server is functioning correctly. Make sure that the fully qualified host name of your Sametime server is listed first in your iseries host table, before any short names associated with the same IP address. If your server is configured to search the DNS before searching the iseries host table, you must also make sure that the fully qualified host name of your Sametime server is listed first in the DNS. For detailed information, see Chapter 2 Preparing the TCP/IP Environment. 1 Getting Started With IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing 7

For more information about Sametime security issues, see Working with Sametime security in the IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing (Sametime) Administrator s Guide (sthelpad.nsf). If you are upgrading from a release prior to Sametime 3.1, using a Domino LDAP directory, and have configured a home Sametime server for your users, you will need to make changes after upgrading your Sametime server to 6.5.1. Without these changes, your users will not be able to log in to Sametime. If you have multiple Sametime servers or you have Sametime enabled Domino databases, such as the mail database, you likely have configured a home Sametime server. Before upgrading to Sametime 6.5.1, check to see if you are using the ST_DB_LDAP_HOMESERVER_NOTES_FORMAT parameter in the sametime.ini file. This parameter was used to tell Sametime to convert the home server attribute returned by LDAP from standard LDAP format to a form that is usable by Sametime, but the parameter is no longer used in Sametime 3.1 and later releases. Sample Java code and instructions are available for implementing this function in Sametime 3.1 and later releases using the customized attributes feature. See technote 1116930 Sametime for iseries: Unable to Login After Upgrade with Domino LDAP at the following Web address: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=203&uid=swg21116930 If you are currently using Sametime Attachment Conversion Services, you may need to upgrade your conversion server after upgrading your Sametime server. Sametime 6.5.1 includes the same level of the conversion services that was shipped with Sametime 3.1. Therefore, if you are currently running Sametime 3.1 and have already upgraded your conversion server, you do not need to upgrade it again. If you are upgrading Sametime from a release prior to 3.1, you should upgrade your conversion server. For more information, see the Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing (Sametime) 6.5.1 Conversion Services Setup Guide. About the Sametime server Before installing Sametime, you should familiarize yourself with its capabilities and services, which are summarized below. Sametime consists of client and server applications that enable a community of users to collaborate in real-time online meetings over an intranet or the Internet. Members of the Sametime community use collaborative activities such as presence, chat, screen sharing, a shared whiteboard, and real-time audio/video capabilities to meet, converse, and work together in instant or scheduled meetings. 8 Installing and Managing Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing for iseries

Sametime presence technology enables members who have logged in to the Sametime server to see all other members who are online (logged in). The names of online users display in presence lists in Sametime applications. From these presence lists, members of the community can converse through instant messaging sessions or start instant meetings that include chat, screen-sharing, whiteboard, question and answer polls, the ability to send Web pages to other users, and audio/video collaborative activities. While presence lists support instant awareness and instant collaboration with other online users, the Sametime Meeting Center on the Sametime server provides a central meeting place for members of the community. In the Meeting Center, users can schedule meetings to start at a particular time. Users access the Sametime Meeting Center with Web browsers at the scheduled meeting time to attend the meeting. The two primary Sametime client applications are the IBM Lotus Sametime Connect client and the Sametime Meeting Room client. The Sametime Connect client is a Windows application that contains a presence list that displays selected members of the community who are online. From Sametime Connect, a user can collaborate by sending instant messages or by starting an instant meeting with any other online member of the community. The Sametime Meeting Room client is a Java applet that loads and runs in a user s Web browser whenever the user attends an instant or scheduled meeting. The Sametime Meeting Room client contains components that support the full range of Sametime collaborative activities, including interactive audio and video. Sametime supports a broadcast technology that enables a large number of view-only users (or audience members) to watch a small number of users (or presenters) interact in a meeting. The broadcast technology is especially useful for meetings in which one person, or a small group of people, make presentations to a large audience. Audience members watch a broadcast meeting using a separate receive-only Java client called the Sametime Broadcast client. Each Sametime server contains an IBM Lotus Domino Directory that maintains information about all users and servers that comprise the Sametime community. The Sametime server can also be configured to operate as a client to a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server containing an LDAP directory. 1 Getting Started With IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing 9

Sametime works through the interaction of its client applications with services on the Sametime server. The Sametime services include the Community Services, Meeting Services, Broadcast Services, Domino/Web Application Services, and Audio/Video Services (provided by the Sametime Multimedia Services). Managing the directory, ensuring that Sametime clients can connect to the Sametime server, configuring the Sametime services, and monitoring the server are some of the primary administrative tasks associated with the Sametime server. Sametime administrators use the Web-based Sametime Administration Tool. This tool runs in a Web browser and is available from the Administer the Server link on the Sametime server home page. For more detailed information, see the IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing (Sametime) 6.5.1 Administrator s Guide (sthelpad.nsf). About the Sametime Connect clients Sametime for iseries includes two versions of the Sametime Connect client. Sametime Connect for the desktop is a standalone Windows application and Sametime Connect for browsers is a signed Java applet that runs in a user s Web browser. The administrator controls the availability of these clients through settings in the Sametime Administration Tool or from the Sametime Installer for Secure Desktops (SISD). To use Sametime Connect for the desktop, users must either download the client from the Welcome to Sametime page or install the client from the Sametime server CD. To use Sametime Connect for browsers, users must download the client from the Welcome to Sametime page or use the Sametime Installer for Secure Desktops wizard. Note Each user must have an Internet password entered in the Person document in the Domino Directory before using either Sametime Connect client. This password is required to log on to Sametime. Sametime Installer for Secure Desktops The Sametime Installer for Secure Desktops (SISD) uses an InstallShield wizard to install the following Java clients on a workstation: Sametime Connect for browsers Sametime Meeting Room client Sametime Broadcast client Sametime Directory applet Normally, users must download each of these clients separately. SISD saves time by allowing users to install all of the clients at once. 10 Installing and Managing Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing for iseries

SISD is particularly useful if your users do not have administrator privileges for their computers, because these users are unable to install the Sametime clients from the server. Without the clients, they cannot attend Sametime meetings, use Sametime Connect for browsers, or access the directory to locate other Sametime users. With SISD, the system administrator (or any user with administrator privileges) can quickly install all of the Sametime clients listed above onto a user s machine. The Sametime Installer for Secure Desktops is located in the \SecureDesktop directory of the Sametime for iseries Volume 2 CD. See the Securedesktop_readme.txt file which is located in the same directory for a detailed list of the client workstation requirements. Additional Notes If your users require Sametime Connect for the desktop, SametimeClient.exe must be installed in addition to the Sametime Installer for Secure Desktops. Before using SISD, you must update your Sametime server. SISD installs Sametime 6.5.1 clients. These clients can access meetings on Sametime server versions 3.1 or higher. If SISD detects that the 6.5.1 level of a client is already installed on a workstation, SISD skips to the next client installation. If previous versions of Sametime clients are already installed on a workstation, SISD installs the 6.5.1 versions but does not remove the previous versions. Since previous versions of the Java clients are not removed, the client workstation can still be used to access meetings on servers running previous releases of Sametime. Using iseries Navigator The preferred way to install and manage the Domino server that you use for Sametime for iseries is to use iseries Navigator. iseries Navigator is part of IBM iseries Client Access Express for Windows, which runs on a workstation that is communicating with your iseries server through TCP/IP. To use iseries Navigator, you must install Client Access Express on a workstation that is running a Microsoft Windows operating platform. All of the software needed for Client Access Express is included with the OS/400 software that is pre-loaded on your iseries server. For detailed information on installing iseries Navigator and Client Access Express, see the iseries Navigator section of the iseries Information Center at the following Web address: http://www.ibm.com/eserver/iseries/infocenter 1 Getting Started With IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing 11

OS/400 authorities required to install and set up Sametime OS/400 has extensive security restrictions to prevent unauthorized access to OS/400 functions and data. The administrator who installs and sets up Sametime must sign on to the iseries server with a user profile that has the required authorities. To install the Sametime software, your user profile must have the following special authorities: All object access (*ALLOBJ) Security administration (*SECADM) To set up a Sametime server, your user profile must have the following special authorities: All object access (*ALLOBJ) System configuration (*IOSYSCFG) Job control (*JOBCTL) Checking your user profile using iseries Navigator The OS/400 security officer has the required authorities to install and set up Sametime. If you are not the security officer, check to see if your user profile has the required authorities by following these steps: Open your iseries server where you will install Sametime. Click Users and Groups. Click All Users. Right-click user-id where user-id is the name of your user profile. Click Properties. Click Capabilities. The authorities granted to your user profile are displayed on the Privileges tab. If your user profile does not have the required authorities, ask the security officer to either install and set up the Sametime server or add the required authorities to your user profile. 12 Installing and Managing Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing for iseries

Checking your user profile using commands The OS/400 security officer has the required authorities to install and set up Sametime. If you are not the security officer, use the Display User Profile (DSPUSRPRF) command to determine if your user profile has the required authorities. To check your user profile, follow these steps: Note You start the OS/400 command interface by signing on to your iseries server, such as from a 5250 emulator window on a workstation that is communicating with the system. To enter a command, type the command on any line following the symbol ===> and press Enter. To have the system prompt you for details of a command, type the command name (such as DSPUSRPRF) and press F4 instead of Enter. 1. Type the following OS/400 command and press Enter: DSPUSRPRF user-id where user-id is the name of your user profile. 2. Press the PAGE DOWN key and look for the special authority field to display the special authorities for the user profile. If your user profile does not have the required authorities, ask the security officer to either do the installation and setup or to add the required authorities to your user profile. Sametime for iseries requirements Before you install Sametime, install the iseries hardware and software that Sametime requires. Before you install Sametime Connect for the desktop, install the workstation hardware and software that Sametime Connect requires. The following sections describe how to verify that your system meets all of the Sametime hardware and software requirements for the iseries platform. How to check for installed iseries software You can determine what software is installed on your iseries by using iseries Navigator (the Graphical User Interface for OS/400) or by entering a command.

Sametime server requirements Sametime for iseries requires the following hardware and software. Hardware IBM iseries server based on PowerPC (RISC) technology Minimum 512MB memory, 1GB recommended Minimum 500MB free disk space, 1GB recommended Minimum of 4 Disk Drives (arms) If you plan to use Sametime in a language other than English, your server must have an additional 150MB of free disk space. Note Use these values as general guidelines. The requirements for your environment may be different. For more information about recommended models and system sizing, see the Sametime for iseries Web site at the following address: http://www.ibm.com/eserver/iseries/sametime/sysreq.html OS/400 software IBM Operating System/400 (OS/400), 5722SS1, Version 5 Release 1 or later Note Version 5 Release 2 or later is required if you need the capability to save the meeting room whiteboard contents. All required system PTFs For the latest detailed information about the required PTFs, see technote 1089996 Sametime for iseries: What System Fixes are Required? at the following Web address: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=203&uid=swg21089996 OS/400 - Host servers, 5722SS1 option 12 TCP/IP Connectivity Utilities for iseries, 5722TC1 IBM Developer Kit for Java, 5722JV1 plus the following two options: 1.3 JDK, 5722JV1 option 5 1.4 JDK, 5722JV1 option 6 OS/400 - QShell Interpreter, 5722SS1 option 30 OS/400 - Portable Application Solutions Environment (PASE), 5722SS1 option 33. This product option is required if you plan to enable the capability to save whiteboard contents. (iseries Tools for Developers, 5799PTL, is no longer required for this capability.) 1 Getting Started With IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing 15

Cryptographic Access Provider 128-bit for iseries, 5722AC3 This product option is required if you plan to enable the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol to encrypt connections with your Sametime server. There is no charge for 5722AC3, but you must contact your IBM Business Partner or IBM representative to order it. This is a new requirement for Sametime 6.5.1. See Chapter 7 Optional Configurations for Sametime 6.5.1 for iseries for additional requirements for other Sametime configurations such as implementing Sametime Conversion Services. Domino software Sametime 6.5.1 for iseries requires Domino for iseries release 6.0.3, 6.5.0 or 6.5.1 or later Domino 6 release. All of the Domino releases supported by Sametime 6.5.1 are multi-version capable, so you may have more than one of these releases installed in the same iseries LPAR. When upgrading a Domino server from R5 to Domino 6, be aware that the LDAP task is enabled by default, even if the server was not running the LDAP task before the upgrade. To disable LDAP on your Domino server, run the following from any OS/400 command line: CHGDOMSVR SERVER(<Domino_server_name>) DIRSRV(*NONE) If you plan to run Team Workplace (QuickPlace) on the same iseries server, you must install Domino 6.5.1. With previous releases, you could only install one release of Domino within a single iseries LPAR, which made it necessary to use the same Domino release for both Sametime and QuickPlace. However, all of the Domino releases supported by Sametime 6.5.1 are multi-version capable, that is, multiple releases of Domino can be installed on the same iseries server. Therefore, while you must install Domino 6.5.1 in order to run Team Workplace 6.5.1, you can run Sametime 6.5.1 on Domino 6.0.3 or 6.5.0 if you prefer. For more information about Domino multi-versioning, see Using Domino for iseries Multi-version Capabilities in Chapter 12 of the Lotus book Installing and Managing Domino 6.5 for iseries. For the latest information, see technote 1091353 Sametime for iseries: Can Sametime and QuickPlace Be Installed on the Same System? at the following Web address: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=203&uid=swg21091353 16 Installing and Managing Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing for iseries

Domino considerations for languages other than English You should install the language version of Domino for iseries that corresponds to the language version of Sametime you plan to install. For example, if you plan to install the French version of Sametime, you should install either one of the following: The French version of Domino. The Global English version of Domino plus the French language files from the Domino Language Pack. Instructions for installing language files are available on the Domino Language Pack CD. Additional requirements for iseries Navigator If you want to use iseries Navigator to manage your Sametime server, make sure you have the following software installed on your iseries server: Client Access Express for Windows, 5722XE1 Client Access Windows Family - Base, 5722XW1 Lotus Domino plug-in for iseries Navigator For more information, see the iseries Information Center at the following Web address: http://www.ibm.com/eserver/iseries/infocenter Server compatibility issues If there are other Sametime servers in the same community with your Sametime 6.5.1 server, all of the servers should be upgraded to Sametime 3.0a, 3.1, or 6.5.1. If you are using the Session Initiated Protocol (SIP), you must use the SIP Connectors that are delivered with Sametime 3.1 or 6.5.1. You can use either the iseries integrated SIP Connector or the standalone SIP Connector, but you must use the Sametime 3.1 or 6.5.1 versions for each SIP-enabled Sametime community. You can integrate the capabilities of the Team Workplace product with your Sametime server. If you plan to run Team Workplace on the same iseries server, there are some additional considerations. For more information on installing both products on the same iseries server, see technote 1091353 Sametime for iseries: Can Sametime and QuickPlace Be Installed on the Same System? at the following Web address: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=203&uid=swg21091353 Replication issues If you plan to use replication functions in your Sametime environment, do not replicate the Sametime Configuration Database (stconfig.nsf) from one server to another. 1 Getting Started With IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing 17

Either Sametime Connect for the desktop or Sametime Connect for browsers For more information about either of these two clients, see About the Sametime Connect clients earlier in this chapter. The Print Capture Utility (optional) The Print Capture Utility, which allows users to prepare files to be attached to a meeting for viewing on the whiteboard, is included with the Sametime for iseries product. Once you have installed Sametime on your Domino for iseries server, users can download the Print Capture Utility from the server and install it on their workstations. 18 Installing and Managing Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing for iseries

The Sametime Print Capture Utility provides an alternative to the Sametime Conversion Services. While Sametime Conversion Services requires additional setup, it is more convenient for your users. However, in some situations, the Print Capture Utility provides better attachment viewing results than the Sametime Attachment Conversion server. When used together, users can benefit from both services. For more information on Sametime Conversion Services, see the Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing (Sametime) 6.5.1 Conversion Services Setup Guide. All Sametime documentation is available from the Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing product page, which can be accessed from the following Web address: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus/products Additional client requirements for audio/video Sound Card: A full-duplex sound card is required to participate in interactive audio/video meetings. A half-duplex sound card is required to enable a user to listen to an audio meeting that is broadcast by the Sametime Broadcast Services. Microphone and speakers: High-quality microphones are recommended. Avoid microphones with on and off switches unless they are of high quality. A headset that contains a boom microphone performs best. If a desktop microphone is used, a unidirectional dynamic microphone that uses batteries is preferred. Camera: A high-quality USB or PCMCIA PC camera is recommended (do not use parallel port cameras). A camera is optional. Users who do not have a camera can participate in an audio/video meeting. These users can see video images displayed in the Sametime Meeting Room client. When a user without a camera speaks, no video image is displayed in the video component of the Meeting Room client. Video capturing software: Video for Windows.

Chapter 2 Preparing the TCP/IP Environment Your Sametime server must be configured to use one or more specific TCP/IP addresses so that it will not attempt to share TCP/IP ports with any other HTTP servers on your system. This chapter guides you through the process of verifying your TCP/IP configuration, making changes if necessary to resolve conflicts between servers, and gathering the TCP/IP information that you will need to configure your Sametime server. For detailed information about connectivity issues, see Configuring Sametime Connectivity in the IBM Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing (Sametime) Administrator s Guide (sthelpad.nsf). Preparing your TCP/IP environment for Sametime involves the following tasks: Verify iseries host table entries. Verify configuration of existing Domino servers. Select a TCP/IP address for your Sametime server. Add an iseries TCP/IP address. Update your iseries host table. Update the Domain Name Server. Update the configuration of existing Domino servers. Update the IBM HTTP server configuration. For the same steps using only OS/400 commands, see Appendix B Preparing the TCP/IP Environment Using Commands. Verifying iseries host table entries To verify your host table entries, follow these steps: 1. Locate your iseries server s Host Table. Open iseries Navigator. Open your iseries server where you plan to install Sametime. Click Network. Right-click TCP/IP Configuration and select Properties. On the TCP/IP Configuration properties panel, click Host Table. 23

2. Record each host name and the corresponding TCP/IP address as you may need this information later. Verifying configuration of existing Domino servers Note If you do not have any Domino servers configured on your system, you can skip this section. To determine which TCP/IP addresses are currently being used by your Domino servers, follow these steps: 1. From an OS/400 command interface, sign on to your iseries server. Note The following steps assume that your Domino servers are already started. 2. Verify the current TCP/IP addresses for each Domino server by entering the following command: WRKDOMCSL servername where servername is the name of your Domino server. 3. From the Domino Console display, type the following command and press Enter: sh port tcpip 4. Press F5 to refresh the screen. The show port TCP/IP command displays the TCP/IP address that the Domino server is using. If the server is using only one TCP/IP address, you will see a specific TCP/IP Local Address listed along with a port number, which is typically port 1352. For example, 10.1.2.3:1352. If the server is using all active TCP/IP addresses, you will see *:1352 displayed as the Local Address rather than a particular TCP/IP address. 5. Record the results for each Domino server, as you will use this information later. 24 Installing and Managing Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing for iseries

Selecting a TCP/IP address for your Sametime server In this section you will determine which TCP/IP addresses are already defined on your system and decide which address you will use for your Sametime server. You will also determine whether you will need to define additional TCP/IP addresses in order to avoid conflicts between servers. 1. Open the list of TCP/IP interfaces. If necessary, open iseries Navigator. Open your iseries server where you will add Sametime. Click Network. Click TCP/IP Configuration. Click Interfaces. The right pane shows information about each TCP/IP address on your server. 2. Verify that each of the TCP/IP addresses that you recorded earlier (when you looked at the Host Table or ran the sh port tcpip command) is currently defined. 3. Verify that the system has enough TCP/IP addresses defined so that you can assign at least one for the exclusive use of each of the following: Your Sametime server. Each existing Domino server. Each instance of the IBM HTTP server running on your system. Note Do not attempt to use Domino port mapping. 4. Contact your network administrator to assign additional TCP/IP addresses and host names if needed. 5. Ensure that the new host names are also added to your Domain Name Server (DNS). 6. Select the TCP/IP address you will assign to your Sametime server. 7. Decide which TCP/IP addresses should be assigned to each existing Domino server and each instance of the IBM HTTP server. 8. Record this information, as you will use it later to ensure that existing servers are properly bound to specific IP addresses. This ensures that their port usage will not conflict with your Sametime server. If you did not need to have additional TCP/IP addresses defined, skip to Updating the iseries host table. 2 Preparing the TCP/IP Environment 25

Adding an iseries TCP/IP address Note If you did not need to assign additional TCP/IP addresses, you can skip this section. To add a TCP/IP address to your server, follow these steps: 1. If necessary, open iseries Navigator. 2. Open your iseries server where you will add Sametime. 3. Click Network. 4. Click TCP/IP Configuration. 5. Right-click Interfaces and select New Interface. 6. Select Local Area Network. 7. Follow the wizard s instructions to configure the TCP/IP interface. If you need assistance in any window of the wizard, click Help. Updating the iseries host table In this section, you will add an entry in the host table for your Sametime server. If necessary, you will also update the entries for your existing Domino servers. To add a host table entry for your Sametime server, follow these steps: 1. Open the iseries Host Table. Open iseries Navigator. Open your iseries server where you plan to install Sametime. Click Network. Right-click TCP/IP Configuration and select Properties. On the TCP/IP Configuration properties display, click the Host Table tab. 2. Click Add. 3. In the IP Address field enter the TCP/IP address you have chosen to use for your Sametime server. For example, enter 10.1.2.4. 4. In the Host name field, enter the fully qualified name for the Domino server where you will add Sametime. For example, enter stdom1.acme.com. Note Although you can add multiple host names for the same IP address, make sure you list the fully qualified name first, before any alternative short names. If the fully qualified name is not first on the list of names associated with the Sametime server s IP address, you must delete the entries and recreate them in the correct order. 5. If you choose to, enter a description in the Description field. 26 Installing and Managing Lotus Instant Messaging and Web Conferencing for iseries

6. Click OK to add the entry to your server s host table. 7. Click OK to exit the TCP/IP Configuration Properties Window. Ensure that the host table entries for any existing Domino servers are correctly defined and they are associated with the TCP/IP addresses you decided they should use in Selecting a TCP/IP address for your Sametime server. Updating the Domain Name Server If you defined any additional host names, work with your TCP/IP administrator to ensure that the new host names are added to your Domain Name Server (DNS). If you have configured TCP/IP to search the DNS before searching the iseries host table, you may need to make additional changes in your configuration. Follow these steps to check your TCP/IP Configuration Properties: 1. Open iseries Navigator. 2. Open the iseries server where you will install Sametime. 3. Click Network. 4. Right-click TCP/IP Configuration and select Properties. 5. Note the current value of the Search order. If Search host table first is selected, you do not need to take any further action. You already ensured that the fully qualified host name was listed first in your local host table in an earlier step. 2 Preparing the TCP/IP Environment 27
