Overview of Lotus Connections pilot install part 2

So yesterday I covered the basics but today it is time to point something else out.  The directory source you use is built from a local text file.  You do not point to a live LDAP source and there is no option but to use the local Cloudscape data store for the pilot install.  This means that it is truly meant as a test pilot.  It does generate some questions at this point in the game.  In my podcast (Episode 38) the Connections product managers and myself covered the fact that there was a migration ability of data to full production.

  • But what about the document created under the test names?
  • Who has access to the past data when the user accounts change?
  • How do I change access from a test account to a production account?
  • How do I map the profiles to the live users?

Here is the format for the user scripts.

Humorously they only place 8 test digits in the mobile field.  Not sure how many of you have something other than 7 or 10 in the US, but 8 is a nice number too.
