DomainPatrol Features in summaryThe DomainPatrol Scanner scans your Lotus Notes & Domino environment and creates an inventory of all databases, ACL entries, agents and script libraries on all servers. This inventory is stored in the DomainPatrol Database where views, reports and action tools will supply;

Documentation and overviewYou will finally know exactly what databases are on which servers and the purpose, usage and responsibility roles for each of them. With DomainPatrol you can prepare your environment for new technology and upgrades as well as migration, outsourcing or consolidation projects. By using DomainPatrol as a proactive management tool you will make sure you stay in control and are ready for changes.

Simplified and empowered administrationBuilt-in action tools help you quickly and easily perform common administrative task. Even more powerful are the dialogue based tools that simplifies more complex tasks that would often require referring to system documentation or to carry out tedious manual processes. This not only saves you lots of time but also bestows you with powers that standard admin tools don’t.
