The EVDominoHousekeeping task is not able to properly get initialized if the Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway is clustered on MSCS or VCS

Cause

During the EVDominoHousekeeping startup the EVDG will be registered in the EVDominoServer table. The registration process uses the RegisterEvDominoServer stored procedure in the EnterpriseVaultDirectory database.
 
The stored procedure is performing a check which relies on the returned value of the variable @CompName which uses the GetComputerName method.
 
The errors show that the registration is failing. The failure occurs because the valued obtained from @CompName returns the node name of the cluster instead of the virtual server name used by cluster EV resource.

Solution

Lotus Domino Server and Enterprise Vault (EVDG) clustered with VCS
 
The Enterprise Vault and Lotus Domino Server services, which are controlled by the VCS service group, are associated with the Generic Service resource type. The Generic Service resource properties for each service provide the ability to set the attribute UseVirtualName with a value of 'true' ( Figure 2 )

  Figure 2
 
 
 

When using the Wizard to Create a new Enterprise Vault server with cluster support, all EV services will automatically be configured with this attribute set to 'true'. As the inclusion of the Lotus Domino Server service is done manually this attribute should also be set to 'true'. After setting this attribute to 'true' the respective service entry in the registry is modified to include a Multi-String-Value key " Environment" set with following parameters ( Figure 3 )

Figure 3
 
 
 
This key is added to HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Lotus Domino Server (%LotusDominodata%) and ensures that the service advertises the virtual name used in the service group therefore the query using @CompName returns the expected virtual server name.
 
Lotus Domino Server and Enterprise Vault (EVDG) clustered with MSCS
 
Where the Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway is configured in a Microsoft Cluster Server this option can also be configured within the properties of the Generic Service resource for the Lotus Domino Server service (Figure 4, Figure 5)
