I was sorting my mail notices mail from IBM about Domino Configuration Tuner.
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=899&uid=swg21388699

DCT is a very nice tool, which checks config of your server according to IBM Best Practice.
More details can be found here http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/dominowiki.nsf/dx/domino-configuration-tuner

Things that I found interesting:
Q: How often are rules updated and when are updates released?
A. On the first Tuesday of each month. The first update was released on June 2, 2009. We get suggestions and enhancements for updates from the wiki, blogs, forums, and so on.

Q: What does DCT scan? Is it just the Names & Address book?
A: DCT pulls information from the notes.ini file, Server documents, and Configuration documents. DCT looks at the configuration settings to see if something's out of line. For example, if you have a "disable cache" parameter set in the notes.ini file, DCT will actually shut down the cache.

So, there is an updated rule set available. let's go and check servers.

One of the services I provide to customers is a Domino Health Check, when I go thought the config of servers, check different aspects of Domino, write recomentations and suggestions.
I thing DTC is somethings, how can I automate this process.

By the way, DTC is a topic which is included in IBM Lotus Domino 8.5 Update exam scope, http://www-03.ibm.com/certify/tests/objL956.shtml
