About database files supported by NetBackup for Lotus Notes

NetBackup for Lotus Notes supports the following database types:

  • .NTF Lotus Notes template files

  • .NSF Lotus Notes server files

  • .BOX Lotus Notes mailbox files

For UNIX clients, you can allow Lotus Notes databases with other extensions to be backed up (or limit the default list of extensions). Create the file /usr/openv/netbackup/lotus.conf. If the lotus.conf file exists, the default extensions are overridden and only those databases with the extensions listed are backed up. In the lotus.conf file, enter each extension on a separate line. Enter only the extension with no leading period or trailing characters.
