Roadmap of Administration Process requests: Moving mail files (sidebar)
You can use the Administration Process to move a mail file between servers in a domain. The Move Mail File action generates a "Check mail server's access" request. This is followed by several more requests, including Create new mail replica, Add new mail file fields, Monitor new mail file fields, Replace new mail file fields, and so on.
When processing the "Add new mail file fields" request, the administration server for the Domino Directory adds two new fields to the Person document: the New mail file field and the New mail server field. The addition of these fields enables the new mail server to accept mail for the designated person. Later, during the "Replace mail file fields" request, the administration server for the Domino Directory updates the Mail file field and Mail server field, replacing their contents with the contents of the New mail file and New mail server fields, respectively.
The following chart shows the complete sequence of requests:
