How can I acquire a server session from a Lotus Domino OSGI servlet

From a Domino OSGi Servlet I can acquire a user session using: 

ContextInfo.getUserSession()

However, as part of the execution of the servlet I need to access a database to retrieve configuration settings. This database is only accessible to Admins and the server so I need, ideally, a signer or server session as well.

Is this possible?

You can create a server session with NotesFactory.createSession().

The class must be imported by import lotus.domino.NotesFactory;

There are unsupported methods available in the lotus.domino code that can do this, which are used in org.openntf.domino.session.NativeSession (https://stash.openntf.org/projects/ODA/repos/dominoapi/browse/domino/core/src/main/java/org/openntf/domino/session/NativeSessionFactory.java#14 and https://stash.openntf.org/projects/ODA/repos/dominoapi/browse/domino/core/src/main/java/org/openntf/domino/session/LotusSessionFactory.java#63).

If you want that and more, OpenNTF Domino API Starter Servlet uses ODA to provide a starter OSGi servlet that brings all the benefits of ODA plus examples of JSON handling from IBM packages and an optional HTTP Service. There is an introductory video on NotesIn9.
