• Prompt user to send comments: Select Yes to prompt the user to provide feedback or comments along with diagnostic report. Select No to prevent users from providing feedback.
• Prompt user to send diagnostic report: To allow users to decide whether they want to send a diagnostic report to the mail-in database or not, you should select Yes. Select No to send the diagnostic report automatically.
You cannot enable a user to change the maximum size of diagnostic messages. You can set up the maximum size of diagnostic messages only when setting up automatic diagnostic collection.
You cannot enable a user to change the maximum size of NSD output to attach. You can change the maximum size of NSD output to attach only when setting up automatic diagnostic collection.
You cannot enable a user to change the maximum amount of console output file. You can change the maximum amount of console output file only when setting up automatic diagnostic collection.

Objective: Mail.
Sub-objective: Configure inbox maintenance.
Multiple answer, multiple-choice
You want to configure inbox maintenance to ensure all mail older than 30 days is automatically deleted from users’ inboxes. Which two actions could you perform to configure the Remove documents older than [X] days from Inbox option? (Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose two.)
A. Select the Allow users to change mail file ownership option in the mail policy settings document.
B. Select the Maintain inboxes for only these selected users on this home server option in the Server document.
C. Select the Enable mail Inbox maintenance option in the mail policy settings document.
D. Select the Maintain inboxes based on policies option in the Server document.
Answer:
B. Select the Maintain inboxes for only these selected users on this home server option in the Server document.
C. Select the Enable mail Inbox maintenance option in the mail policy settings document.
Tutorial:
You could either select the Maintain inboxes for only these selected users on this home server option in the Server document or select the Enable mail Inbox maintenance option in the mail policy settings document. You can configure inbox maintenance options by using Server documents and mail policy settings documents.
When you select the Enable mail Inbox maintenance option in a mail policy settings document, the following inbox maintenance options become available in the mail policy settings document:
• Remove documents older than [X] days from Inbox: When you specify a number for this field, messages older than the specified number of days are automatically deleted from users’ inboxes.
• Maximum number of documents to remove per cleanup: This setting specifies the maximum number of messages that should be removed per cleanup.
• Do not remove unread documents from Inbox: Enabling this setting ensures unread messages are not deleted from inboxes.
Configuring inbox maintenance options in the Server document allows you to maintain inboxes for selected users on the home server. To do this, you should select the Maintain inboxes for only these selected users on this home server option on the Server Tasks - Administration Process tab in the Server document. When you select the Maintain inboxes for only these selected users on this home server option, the following option becomes available:
• Selected users: This option allows you to select users for which inbox maintenance will be performed.
You should not select the Maintain inboxes based on policies option in the Server document. Enabling the Maintain inboxes based on policies option allows you to maintain inboxes by using the mail policy settings document. It does not enable the Remove documents older than [X] days from Inbox option.
You should not select the Allow users to change mail file ownership option in the mail policy settings document. Selecting this option enables users to modify the ownership of mail files. It does not enable the Remove documents older than [X] days from Inbox option.

You are configuring the How to Apply this Setting option. If you set it to Don’t set value, what would be the impact?
A. Both a user and an administrator could change the value, but the user’s value would be saved.
B. Only a user could change the value in this field; an administrator could not.
C. Both a user and an administrator could change the value, but the administrator’s value would be saved.
D. Only an administrator could specify a value in this field; a user could not.
Answer:
B. Only a user could change the value in this field; an administrator could not.
Tutorial:
Only a user could change the value in this field; an administrator could not. When you set the How to Apply this Setting option to Don’t set value, the user will be able to modify the value in the field. The value specified by the user will be saved as the final value.
The option stating that a user and an administrator could change the value, but the user’s value is would be saved is incorrect. This would be true if you set the How to Apply this Setting option to Set initial value. This setting allows an administrator to define a value to the field. If the end user changes the value in the field, the user’s value is saved.
The option stating that both a user and an administrator could change the value, but the administrator’s value would be saved is incorrect. This would be true if you set the How to Apply this Setting option to Set value whenever modified.
The option stating that only an administrator could specify a value in this field, but a user could not, is incorrect. This would be true if you set the How to Apply this Setting option to Set value and prevent changes.

Objective: Manage users and groups.
Sub-objective: Deploy composite applications.
Single answer, multiple-choice
Which protocol is used by a local NSF replica that is hosted on the Lotus Domino server?
A. HTTP
B. HTTPS
C. NRPC
D. SMTP
Answer:
C. NRPC
Tutorial:
Notes Remote Procedure Call (NRPC) is the default protocol used for provisioning a composite application. If the site is a local update site, then NRPC uses the following format for provisioning the composite application:
NRPC:///__23343432800454A1/site.xml
If it is a remote update site, then you can use the following:
NRPC://<hostname>/<replicaID>/site.xml.
An example of a remote update site is NRPC://updates.kit.com/_23343433400454A1/site.xml. The replica ID is always prefixed with a double underscore. You may be required to create one or more update sites by using NRPC, HTTP or HTTPS protocol depending on your requirements. You can configure multiple updates for composite applications to be referenced from multiple update sites or from a single update site. A composite application may use more than one Eclipse feature that you may have to deploy from one update site or multiple update sites.
The HTTP, HTTPS and SMTP options are incorrect. HTTP and HTTPS are optional protocols for provisioning a composite application. HTTP and HTTPS can provision a composite application in the following manner: http://updates.kit.com/updatesite.nsf/site.xml or https://updates.kit.com/updatesite.nsf/site.xml. SMTP is not used for provisioning a composite application.

Objective: Security.
Sub-objective: Implement Internet password locking.
Single answer, multiple choice
In which document should you configure the Internet Password Lockout feature across multiple servers in the Lotus Domino environment?
A. The Server document.
B. The Server Configuration document.
C. The Web site document.
D. The Person document.
Answer:
B. The Server Configuration document.
Tutorial:
The Server Configuration document contains options to configure the Internet Password Lockout feature. You cannot force the Internet Password Lockout feature in the Server Configuration document without using a security policy. You must first configure the Enforce Internet Password Lockout setting to Yes in the Server Configuration document to be able to successfully deploy a security policy to lock Internet passwords.
The Server document option is incorrect. The Server document is specific to a Lotus Domino server and contains configuration that relates to that specific Lotus Domino server.
The Web site document option is incorrect. You can use a Web Site document to configure WebDAV in the Lotus Domino environment. You cannot use it to configure the Internet Password Lockout feature across multiple servers in the Lotus Domino environment.
The Person document option is incorrect. A Person document is used to configure a specific user account in the Lotus Domino environment, and it contains user-specific information such as Internet username and password. It cannot be used to configure the Internet Password Lockout feature across multiple servers in the Lotus Domino environment.
