Explanation:
This variable helps improving server availability in a cluster.
Clusters are designed to improve server availability. To configure a IBM®
Lotus® Domino™ server for clustering, specify a default port in the server's
NOTES.INI file by using this setting: Server_Cluster_Default_Port=portname.
When you specify a port, you limit cluster replication to that specific port
even if the port has failed. If the setting Server_Cluster_Default_Port= is
not defined, the standard server search algorithm is used and all ports are
tried. If the designated port fails, that is, the port specified in the
Server_Cluster_Default_Port= NOTES.INI setting, the server may be accessible
from another port. You can allow the use of other ports by entering this
NOTES.INI setting in the server's NOTES.INI file:
Server_Cluster_Auxilary_Port=portname. Specify * in the Server_Cluster_Auxili
ary_Ports= setting.
Note If you do not specify a default port in the setting
Server_Cluster_Default_Port=, all ports are tried.
Valid values are:
Blank = Do not specify an auxiliary port. The user sees no change in
the
existing behavior.
* (asterisk) = All ports are checked if the server specified in the
setting Server_Cluster_Default_Port= cannot be reached.
List of port names separated by a comma = Specify a comma delimited list of
port names in the Server_Cluster_Auxiliary_Ports= setting. The ports in the
list are checked for the desired server.

Server_Cluster_Default_Port=portname, see the topic

Applies to:
