About Calendar Server, Version 6 2005Q1

Calendar Server is a scalable, web-based solution for centralized calendaring and scheduling for enterprises and service providers. Calendar Server supports user calendars for both events and tasks as well as calendars for resources, such as conference rooms and equipment. For a list of new features, see the following section,

Calendar Server offers two graphical user interfaces, Calendar Express and Communications Express. It also offers customers the flexibility to use the Web Calendar Access Protocol (WCAP) to access calendar data directly in either text/calendar or text/xml format.

This section includes:

What’s New in This Release

Calendar Server 6 2005Q1 includes the following changes and new features:

Automatic Backups

This section covers the following topics:

Overview of the Old csstored.pl

In earlier versions of Calendar Server, one of the utilities bundled with the product was csstored.pl, which could be invoked to perform an online (hot) archival operation for calendar databases and log files (that is, it took a snapshot of the databases and log files). It performed the following functions:

Overview of the New csstored Service

With the release of Calendar Server 6 2005Q1, this Perl script has been changed into a service (csstored) that starts automatically when you issue start-cal. However, the service does not perform a backup until it is configured and enabled. You can configure Calendar Server for automatic backups at the following times:

The new csstored service performs the following functions:

How to Recover from a Database Failure

If your current database ever fails and you need to replace it with a backup, the hotbackup copy can be used with a minimum of processing (and thus a minimum of downtime). To prepare the hotbackup copy, you need only copy the unapplied transactions to the hotbackup directory and run db_recover against it. That utility applies the final unapplied transaction logs, and checks for corruptions. Then, run db_verify to check the state of the database. If the database is OK, then the hotbackup copy is ready to be used as your new production copy.

For more information about the new autobackup feature and the procedures needed to configure and administer it, see the chapter on autobackups in the Sun Java System Calendar Server Administration Guide.

For more information about restoring one of your automatic backups, see the “Troubleshooting” chapter of the Sun Java System Calendar Server Administration Guide.

Until automatic backups are enabled, the service sends an error message every 24 hours to the calendar administrator saying it is unconfigured. Performing hotbackups is a best practice for Calendar Sever.


Tip

If you have automatic backups disabled, be sure to enable circular logging (caldb.berkeley.circularlogging=”yes”) so that old transaction logs do not fill up available diskspace. Circular logging must be disabled (caldb.berkeley.circularlogging=”no”) when doing automatic backups.


Configuring Automatic Backups in csconfigurator.sh

The configuration program now asks you if you want to configure automatic backups. The configuration program will set up automatic backups (hotbackups) for you, or at a later date, you can configure automatic backups by following the instructions in the Sun Java System Calendar Server 6 2005Q1 Administration Guide.

Read-Only Database

Calendar Server uses Berkeley Database for its calendar databases (other than LDAP for the user and resource information). If your current Berkeley databases become corrupted and you need to continue to provide user access to them while you are recovering the data, Calendar Server 6 2005Q1 allows you to put the databases in read-only mode. In this mode, the server will not accept any update or delete transactions against any of the databases. Only read transactions are supported.

With automatic backups configured, the service runs db_verify against each new snapshot of the databases. If corruption is detected, it automatically sends a warning message to the administrator. The administrator can then put the databases into read-only mode.

However, you might detect corruption later on during the day, between snapshots. If this is the case, you can put your current databases into read-only mode while you are trying to recover. You can not selectively place individual Berkeley databases into read-only mode.

For more information about this, see the “Troubleshooting” chapter in the Sun Java System Calendar Server 6 2005Q1 Administration Guide.

To make the Berkeley databases read-only:

  1. Edit the ics.conf file as follows:
  2. caldb.berkeleydb.readonly=”yes”

  3. Restart Calendar Server:
  4. ./start-cal

Support for Rebuilding Alarm Database Separately

In earlier releases of Calendar Server, when you ran csdb rebuild, all the Calendar Server databases were rebuilt. In Calendar Server 6 2005Q1, you can choose to rebuild only the alarms database. The reason for this is that analysis has shown that the alarms database was the most prone to corruption and was the quickest to rebuild. If you do not know which database is corrupt, you can run it for the alarm database only first to see if that catches the problem. If not, you can then run the full rebuild utility (csdb).

Automatic Database Verification in csdb rebuild

In earlier releases of Calendar Server, after rebuilding databases with csdb, you had to run db_verify manually to verify the rebuilt databases. Now, the csdb utility rebuild command automatically runs db_verify on the rebuilt database.

User Management Utility Name Change

The User Management Utility, a command-line only utility used for provisioning and management of users, resources and domains, has been renamed to the Delegated Administrator Utility and is still the only provisioning tool for Schema 2 that supports Calendar Server.

The Delegated Administrator graphical user interface released for 2005Q1 does not support Calendar Server.


Note

This is not the same Delegated Administrator used by earlier versions of Messaging Server for Schema 1provisioning. (It never supported Calendar Server either.)

If you are still using Schema 1, use the Calendar Server command-line utilities described in the Sun Java System Calendar Server 6 2005Q1 Administration Guide.


Installation Changes - Directory Server Preparation Script (comm_dssetup.pl)

The Directory Server Preparation Script (comm_dssetup.pl) is no longer bundled with the Calendar Server and Messaging Server products. It has become a separately installable component in the Java Enterprise System installer. On the component selection panel, you can select the Directory Server Preparation Script by itself. Or, it is selected automatically if you select Directory Server.

In general, due to product changes, you will need to install the new Directory Server Preparation Script and run it even if you have run earlier versions. Do not rerun an earlier version you may already have as it will not contain the necessary updates.

Web Calendar Access Protocol (WCAP) Changes

The following changes were made in WCAP:

Freebusy Redirect URL

This sections covers the following topics:

What is the Freebusy Redirect URL Feature?

For customers migrating from Microsoft Exchange to Calendar Server, a new feature was added to WCAP that allows both databases to be searched, first the Calendar Server database and then the Microsoft Exchange database. This enables customers to maintain calendar services during the transition. To accomplish this, two changes were made in WCAP:

How Does it Work?

When the server receives a free_busy command, it checks the Calendar Server calendar database. If the server can not find the calendar, the following steps take place:

  1. The server checks to see if the noredirect parameter was passed in the get_freebusy command.
  2. If the value of the noredirect parameter is 0, or was not passed in, the server looks for the value in the ics.conf file parameter service.wcap.freebusy.redirecturl.
  3. If the service.wcap.freebusy.redirecturl parameter exists and has a URL as its value, it passes the URL back to the requesting program. It is up to the requesting program to use the URL to look for the calendar in the Microsoft Exchange databases.
  4. If either of the following is true, the server returns an error.
    • The service.wcap.freebusy.redirecturl parameter either does not exist or has a blank value.
    • The get_freebusy command passed in the noredirect parameter with a value of 1.

Changes to Existing WCAP Commands

The following parameter changes were made to existing WCAP commands:

For further information about these parameters, see the Sun Java System Calendar Server 6 2005Q1 Developer’s Guide.

New Error Message

One new error message was added: error 81: RECURRING_COMPONENT_NOT_FOUND–Recurring component not found. This only happens when recurring=1 is passed in by a fetch command. This code is returned if part of a recurring series is missing (either the master or an exception).

This error can be caused by a recurring series being truncated by a limit in the maximum number of transactions fetched, or by a date range limitation.

Old Deployment Guides Deprecated

The Sun Java System Calendar Server 6 2004Q2 Deployment Guide and the Sun Java Communications Services 6 2004Q2 Enterprise Deployment Planning Guide have been deprecated in favor of the Sun Java System Communications Services 6 2005Q1 Deployment Planning Guide.

Directory Server Performance

To improve the performance of your LDAP directory server, especially if you are using calendar searches of the LDAP directory consider the following items:

Indexing the LDAP Directory Server Attributes

To improve performance when Calendar Server accesses the LDAP directory server, add indexes to the LDAP configuration file for various attributes.

The configuration program, comm_dssetup.pl, will optionally do the indexing for you.

To see the performance difference indexing can give you, perform the following test:

  1. Enable calendar searches of the LDAP directory server by making sure the following parameter in the ics.conf file is set to “yes”:
  2. service.calendarsearch.ldap = "yes" (Default)

  3. Run the following LDAP command:

Tests have shown that with 60,000 entries, the above search took about 50-55 seconds without indexing icsCalendarOwned. After indexing, the above search took only about 1-2 seconds.

For more information about adding directory server indexes, refer to the Sun Java System Directory Server 5 2005Q1 documentation at:

http://docs.sun.com/coll/DirectoryServer_05q1

Checking and Setting the Size Limit and the Look Through Limit Parameters

To determine if the Look Through Limit (nsslapd-lookthroughlimit) and Size Limit (nsslapd-sizelimit) parameters are set to appropriate values, try the following command:

ldapsearch -b "base"
"(&(icscalendarowned=*user*)(objectclass=icsCalendarUser))"

where, base is the LDAP base DN of the directory server where the user and resource data for Calendar Server is located, and user is the value that an end user can enter in the Calendar Express Subscribe > Calendar Search dialog.

If the LDAP server returns an error, the nsslapd-sizelimit or the nsslapd-lookthroughlimit parameter might not be large enough. Follow these guidelines to set these parameters:

Communications Express Using Schema 1

There are two issues with Schema 1 in Communications Express:

Provisioning Tools

There are two tools for provisioning users, groups and domains for Calendar Server: The Delegated Administrator Utility and Calendar Server utilities. For information on Delegated Administrator, see the Sun Java System Communications Services 6 2005Q1 Delegated Administrator Guide. For information on the Calendar Server utilities, see the Sun Java System Calendar Server 6 2005Q1 Administration Guide.


Note

Do not attempt to provision users through the Access Manager Console. Though it is possible to create users and assign them a calendar service, do not use this method as results will be unpredictable and negatively impact your deployment.

How to Report Problems and Provide Feedback

If you have problems with Sun Java System Calendar Server, contact Sun customer support using one of the following mechanisms:

So that we can best assist you in resolving problems, please have the following information available when you contact support:

To assist in reporting problems, Sun provides the capture_environment.pl tool, a Perl script that captures the current Calendar Server environment, including the ics.conf file, log files, calendar database files, platform information, and core files (if available). These files can be useful to Calendar Server development to debug problems.

To run the capture_environment.pl tool:

  1. If necessary, download the capture_environment.pl tool from customer support.
  2. If necessary, install Perl and add it to your path. (If you cannot install Perl, see the instructions in the capture_environment.pl file that describe how to manually create a snapshot of your Calendar Server environment.)
  3. Log in as (or become) root.
  4. Run the capture_environment.pl tool. The tool copies the files to a directory named archive_directory. On UNIX systems, it places all files into a tar file named tar_file. On Windows 2000 systems, however, you must manually add the files in archive_directory to a Zip file.
  5. Send the tar file or Zip file to customer support.
