#IBM LOTUS NOTES 8.5.3 CLIENT CONFIGURATION INSTALL#
The autorun process causes the Notes install to run automatically when the USB drive is reconnected. When the user logs out or restarts the system, the process terminates and AUTORUN.EXE needs to be run again. Specifies that a process is to remain running while the user is logged in. To turn off autolaunch, set the value to NO. You can set this value to NLNOTES which causes the Notes client to run from the USB drive even if a local version of the Notes client is already running. Specifies that the Lotus Notes client is to open after the USB drive install is complete. The drive letters used in the PROGDIR and DATADIR properties are replaced at run time. Specifies the command line that is passed to the program MSIEXEC.EXE that performs the install. The drive letter is dynamically replaced at run time with the correct drive letter of the USB Drive. Specifies the path on the USB drive to the MSI file that is used to perform the install when the USB drive is plugged in. The settings in the file AUTORUN.INI are described in the table. MSI_COMMANDLINE=/qb PROGDIR="Z:\program files\Lotus\notes\" DATADIR="Z:\program files\Lotus\notes\Data\"

The AUTORUN.INI file that is created will be similar to this sample file. Complete the Notes setup process as usual. Lotus Notes client is installed and will automatically launch. When the install process completes, run the command AUTORUN.EXE from the root of the USB drive by double-clicking on the filename or by typing the command on the command line.Ħ. Note The parameters, /qb+ allow for the display of the basic user interface and a message box at the end of the install.ĥ.

No changes are made to the USB drive.īefore you begin, obtain the Notes client-only install code and expand the files into a folder on your hard drive, or place the expanded code onto a shared drive for others to access.Ĭomplete these steps to install IBM Lotus Notes client on a USB drive:ġ. The desktop shortcut, temporary directory and any attachments that you used are also removed. When you remove the USB drive, Lotus Notes is uninstalled and all registry entries and files that were added to the computer are removed. Microsoft® Windows® does not natively support autoplay for USB drives therefore, the autorun process installs and launches the Notes client each time you plug the USB drive into the USB port. During the install process, a temporary directory is also created and the Notes client files are stored in the temporary directory. During the streamlined install process, the USB drive letter is determined, AUTORUN.INI is read, standard Notes registry keys are set and a desktop shortcut is created. When you use the AUTORUN.EXE command (Step 4 in the procedure below) to install the Lotus Notes client onto a computer, a streamlined install process is performed. An executable file, AUTORUN.EXE, is also created and stored in the root directory of the install area on the USB drive. When you run the setup process (Step 2 in the procedure below), program and data files are installed and an initialization file, AUTORUN.INI, is created. When a roaming user activates this feature, the roaming user's roaming files are replicated to the USB drive that the roaming user is using. You can use Lotus Notes on USB with roaming users. Installation of Lotus Notes 8 basic configuration from a USB drive is supported. Note Installation of Lotus Notes 8 from a USB drive is not supported in Lotus Notes 8. Lotus Notes client end-users can use the Notes client anywhere, as if they were on their own system, without performing any configuration activities.

The Notes on USB feature allows the Notes client to run entirely from a USB drive that can be plugged into any computer without leaving anything behind on the host computer, and without adversely affecting any Notes client installation that exists on the host computer.
