Chapter 14: Migrating to Domino 6.5 for Linux on zSeries

---

In this chapter, we discuss how to migrate your Domino applications and mail files from other server platforms onto Domino for Linux on zSeries. We show techniques you can use to move your data, and point out some of the pitfalls that can occur when moving between various platforms. We do not cover all the new features of Domino 6, but you can find this information in Upgrading to Lotus Notes and Domino 6, SG24-6889.

14.1 New or special in Domino 6.5

In the Notes Designer, there are few changes in Domino 6.5 compared to Domino 6. This holds true for the other clients as well, so there should be no need for you to change any Domino 6 applications when moving to Domino 6.5. Refer to 1.5, "What's new in Domino 6.5" on page 11, and also to the Release notes for Domino 6.5 and the Notes Designer help, for more information.

Perhaps the most important change in Domino 6.5 for a Notes developer is that the template for Domino Web Access (DWA, formerly known as iNotes) is customizable. Using Domino Designer, developers can add action buttons to views or dialog boxes, provide additional choices for the Welcome Page, and replace the Domino Web Access logo with a corporate logo.
