Sometimes due to a power outage or a sudden "crash" of the iSeries (AS400), the server.id for the Domino Server becomes corrupt.
The Domino server must be up and running in order for HRMS to be available at your LEA.

This "corruption error" is seen when the AS400 Administrator "starts" the Domino Server on the AS400 and then views the Domino console.
The corrupted serverXXX.id file is located in the /lotus/domino/leaXXXdom folder on the AS400. (XXX = LEA number).

A copy of the serverXXX.id is located in the /lotus/domino folder (just one level back) on the AS400.

Have your AS400 administrator follow the following steps to resolve:
  1. "End" the Domino server (WRKDOMSVR on command line, then option 6).
  2. "Copy" the serverXXX.id from the /lotus/domino folder to the /lotus/domino/leaXXXdom folder. (Replacing the corrupted file).
  3. "Start" the Domino server (WRKDOMSVR on the command line, then option 1).
