Setting up HCL Nomad on-premises

Follow these steps to set up HCL Nomad if you use an on-premises mail server located at your company site.

Before you begin

  • Make sure you meet the Requirements.
  • Ask your administrator for the Domino server to connect to during setup.

Procedure

  1. Download and install HCL Nomad for Android from the Google Playstore.
  2. If your Notes® ID file is not in an ID vault on a server, make a local copy of it on your device.
    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.
  3. To make a local copy of your Notes ID on an Android device: Follow the instructions from the manufacturer on how to transfer a file. Some examples are email, Google Drive, or USB transfer.
  4. Open Nomad on the device.
  5. Complete the Client Configuration page that opens and then click Next:
    1. In the Your name field, enter the name associated with your Notes® ID, for example, Samantha Daryn.
    2. In the Domino server name field, enter the name of the Domino server that your administrator provided to you.
      Note: To download a user's Notes ID from an ID Vault, the Domino server supplied must be ID Vault enabled. The Domino server used for configuration does not have to be the user's mail server, but can be another Domino server within the same domain that is ID Vault enabled.
  6. If prompted to enter a server address, enter the DNS name for the server, for example, mail2.renovations.com.
  7. Provide the password for your Notes® ID and click Next. If you see a message stating that the ID file can't be found on the server, browse and select a local copy of the file that you copied to your device.
  8. Wait for the configuration to complete and the Home page to open.
