Exciting New Updates for Notes/Domino 12!

As soon as Notes/Domino 12 is officially released we will have a few great new features to tell you about. Until then, stay tuned!


MarvelClient Essentials for Notes/Domino 12

As with Notes/Domino 10 and 11, MarvelClient is also included in V12. The installer can be found on the Domino server, and the client part is already present on your Notes clients.


Change Logging in the Config Database

The MarvelClient Config database has a new Change Logging feature, that logs all the changes you make to actions. If something seems different when your MarvelClient actions run, go to the Advanced - Logs view and see what changed! Requires template version 20210122121100 or higher.


New Cleanup Configuration in the Analyze Database

Is your Analyze database getting too large? Try the new Cleanup Configuration options in the Administration section and get rid of those old or duplicate documents.






Attention - Action Required

These are changes that might require you to pay attention, and/or do something after updating to this version.

You'll find all these in the detailed release notes as well.

Platform-specific limitations

Some functionality is not available on all Notes client operating systems.

iOS/iPadOS

Generally, we support most functionalities of the Manage, Migrate and Analyze modules (= MarvelClient Basic), as well as Automate. Some features will behave differently, and some functionalities are absent due to technical platform limitations:

  • The runtype "First Server Access" is there, but simply runs one minute after start, regardless of a successful server access
  • No Rollback
  • No Run Program actions
  • No Recent Contacts management
  • No Smart File Downloader
  • Extended XML Export: No keyfile export
  • .ini Management is limited to notes.ini and MC variables - no other .ini files
  • No DLL Update (not needed; MarvelClient is built into HCL Nomad)
  • A few Analyze features are limited as well

Linux

Our support for Linux is generally limited, newer features will not be available. A list of major functionality that is absent:

  • Eclipse Management
  • Skinning
  • Realtime
  • Zip/Unzip
  • Attachment Blocking
