Notes roaming user
As a Notes® roaming user, you can log in to and use Notes from any computer in your organization on which Notes is installed, and use your personal data while doing so. Your personal data includes many of your Notes preferences and personal information such as your contacts, bookmarks, notebook, feeds subscriptions, and optionally your Notes workspace. Notes widgets also participate in roaming.
Getting started as a Notes roaming user
Your HCL Domino® administrator assigns your roaming user capabilities. The data that your administrator configures to be roaming-enabled replicates or syncs between your roaming server and the Notes® computer that you log into. The roaming server keeps roaming-enabled files and application synchronized for any Notes client on which you log into and work as a roaming user.
How do I obtain my roaming data?
After your administrator configures you as a Notes® roaming user, you can work on any computer on which Notes is installed and your roaming-enabled data will replicate automatically.

How do I obtain my roaming data?

After your administrator configures you as a Notes® roaming user, you can work on any computer on which Notes® is installed and your roaming-enabled data will replicate automatically.

About this task

As a roaming user, Notes® enables your replication schedule and sets it to replicate your roaming-enabled data on the replication schedule and when you start or exit Notes®. The roaming-enabled data that is replicated is the content of your Roaming Application folder on the Replicator page.

Procedure

Log in to and start Notes® on an available computer.
Connect to your mail server and your Notes® mail.
If you have just been upgraded to roaming user, respond to prompts as described in related topics.

While your roaming-enabled data is being replicated you can continue to work in Notes®. You will be notified, when roaming user upgrade and data replication are complete.

Once you have been upgraded to a roaming user and your roaming-enabled files are ready, a message may appear either stating that Notes® will exit or prompting you to restart Notes®.
Restart Notes®. A local replica of your roaming-enabled data is received from your roaming server and is now available on this computer.
