Parameters

optionName%

Integer. Constant. One of the following:
• DBOPT_LZCOMPRESSION (65) uses LZ1 compression for attachments
• DBOPT_MAINTAINLASTACCESSED (44) maintains LastAccessed property
• DBOPT_MOREFIELDS (54) allows more fields in database
• DBOPT_NOHEADLINEMONITORS (46) doesn't allow headline monitoring
• DBOPT_NOOVERWRITE (36) doesn't overwrite free space
• DBOPT_NORESPONSEINFO (38) doesn't support specialized response hierarchy
• DBOPT_NOTRANSACTIONLOGGING (45) disables transaction logging
• DBOPT_NOUNREAD (37) doesn't maintain unread marks
• DBOPT_OPTIMIZATION (41) enables document table bitmap optimization
• DBOPT_REPLICATEUNREADMARKSTOANY (71) replicates unread marks to all servers
Note This option is new with Release 6.5.
• DBOPT_REPLICATEUNREADMARKSTOCLUSTER (70) replicates unread marks to clustered servers only
Note This option is new with Release 6.5.
• DBOPT_SOFTDELETE (49) allows soft deletions

Boolean.
• True to enable the option.
• False to disable the option.

Compact the database to ensure that the option takes effect. See Compact.

See GetOption for getting a database option.

Setting DBOPT_REPLICATEUNREADMARKSTOANY True also sets DBOPT_REPLICATEUNREADMARKSTOCLUSTER True. Setting DBOPT_REPLICATEUNREADMARKSTOCLUSTER True sets DBOPT_REPLICATEUNREADMARKSTOANY False. Setting both options False means unread marks are never replicated.

The database must be open. Otherwise this method raises lsERR_NOTES_DATABASE_NOTOPEN (4063).
