Setting up HCL Nomad on-premises

  • Ask your administrator for the Domino server to connect to during setup.

Procedure

    Tip: See whether your ID file is in a vault: from the Notes® client, click File > Security > User Security. You see the following text in the Security Basics tab when your ID is in a vault: This ID file has been backed up into vault xxxx. If you don't see this text, make a local copy of the ID on your device.
