Router Tell commands

The table below describes other Tell commands you can use with the Router task.

Command	Result
Tell Router Delivery Stats	Shows Router delivery statistics.
Tell Router Compact	Compacts MAIL.BOX and cleans up open Router queues. You can use this command to compact MAIL.BOX at any time. If more than one MAIL.BOX is configured for the server, each MAIL.BOX database will be compacted in sequence. By default, MAIL.BOX is automatically compacted at 4 AM.
Tell Router Show Queues	Shows mail held in transfer queues to specific servers and mail held in the local delivery queue.
Tell Router Exit	Stops the Router task on a server.
Tell Router Update Config	Updates the server's routing tables to immediately modify how messages are routed. This removes the 5 minute delay before a Router configuration change takes effect. To determine the best route for delivering a message to its destination, the Router creates routing tables, which map a path to the destination. The routing table derives information from variables in the NOTES.INI file and from the Configuration Settings, Domain, Connection, and Server documents in the Domino Directory. The command does not update the routing tables with changes made to the Global Domain document. By default, mail the router automatically refreshes its configuration every 5 minutes to absorb changes made in its sources. In previous versions of Domino, you had to restart the router task to update the routing tables after making changes in the sources documents. The command is case insensitive. Caution If the Tell Router Update Config command is initiated on an R5 server, it loads shared mail. The Tell Router U portion of the command loads shared mail on R5 servers.
Tell Router Quit Load Router	Stops the Router task on a server. Start the Router task on a Server
