About restores a multiple Domino server environment
As with restores of a standalone Domino server environment, the user owns the Domino data directory for the installation that must restore the server installation. For Domino server, the notes.ini file determines how a database to be restored is accessed and which Lotus transaction log extents to use for recovery. Because each Domino server installation has its own notes.ini, Lotus Notes databases from different installations must be restored in separate restore operations.
