When you create a task and includes invitees to the task, you can check their availability. Based on the time duration that you specified, Convergence verifies whether the invitee is occupied with another event at the same time, and provides you the result.


To check the availability:

2. Click Check Availability.

Four readers till date requested me to send some sample questions about SCJP. (That's the highest number of comments that I got for any of my blog entries. ) Unfortunately, I was a bit busy and could not contact them. (I will contact you guys through your e-mails soon.)

I have a suggestion for you, guys. Download NetBeans IDE (Integrated Development Environment). Its installation is very simple. Afterwards, try to compile the sample questions that you may get from various sources. This helps you to figure out which code does not compile, which one will compile but throws an exception at runtime, etc. If you are not using an IDE presently and you are using a text editor, this will be very helpful. You will also get experience in using an IDE.

Assume that you are importing a contact or contacts from Microsoft Outlook to Convergenve in Microsoft CSV format. If the contact contains a title as Dr. or Prof. or it contains a suffix as I, II, or III, after import, these values will be displayed as undefined. This happens, because the Convergence does not have corresponding fields.

If you wish to send an e-mail to many contacts or create a task that includes many contacts, create a group and add contacts to the group.





After you create the group, right-click the group and select the appropriate option.

Convergence allows you to send the transcription of your chat with another contact. You need to click the e-mail icon, that is highlighted in a red box, to send the transcription.

On June 30 th, I cleared SCJP 1.5 exam. :) That was the last day to use the free vouchers that I got from Sun. I got 79 %. :)
If you have a plan to write the exam , you can contact me. I will give you some sample questions.!!!

By default, allowdupentry in Convergence is set to true. It means you can create many contacts that has the same display name. However, you can set allowdupentry to false at the deployment level.


To set allowdupentry to false


1. Execute the following command:
/opt/SUNWiwc/sbin/iwcadmin -w password -o ab.pstore.allowdupentry -v false
2. Restart the Application Server.


After you set allowdupentry to false, if you try to create a contact with an existing display name, the following error message is displayed: "Save Contact failed."
