Thanks!
Do you know if I can use the ADSM Scheduler even if the Notes server is up
and running?
The impression I had from the doc was that if the Notes server is up and
running, you have to issue the command with the word LOAD in front, from
the Notes console.

Julie,
I can answer some of these.
1) Yes the log.dsm file grows forever.....
2) You can use the ADSM Scheduler to schedule the notes agent.  All of the
environment variable have to be in the SYSTEM environment, not the USER
environment for this to work correctly.  You use the ADSM scheduler to
schedule a command  which is your  dsmnotes incremental command and include
the password in the dsmnotes as a parameter.
3) I don't know about the password generate with the notes agent.  I think
officially it is not supported, but there is a way around it.
4). I believe that the agent will work with notes 4.6.  I don't know if it
has to be reinstalled though.  The agent needs to know where the notes.dll
lives (that has to be in the path statement), and it updates the notes.ini
file.  If these changed during the notes 4.6 upgrade, then you might have
to
reinstall the notes agent.  Good question for IBM.
