HCL Nomad server for Domino

Quick Checklist / prerequisites before installation
1. Download “HCL Nomad server for Domino”
2. Domino 12.0.1 or 12.0.2* (Windows or Linux)
3. ID Vault needs to be enabled (ID’s must be available in the Vault)
4. TLS certificate for Nomad server for Domino
* HCL Nomad Server for Domino 1.0.9 is currently only available for Domino 12.0.2

TLS Certificate
Do you need a trusted / valid TLS certificate for Nomad Web?
→ YES!
Can you use the “new” Certificate Manager for configuring TLS certificates?
→ YES!

Installation (copy + unzip)
default directory for Linux is /opt/hcl/domino/notes/latest/linux/
default directory for Windows is C:Program FilesHCLDomino

Check the TLS certificate

Notes.ini
If you use the (new) CertMgr with Domino you need to add a notes.ini
parameter. The value must match with one of your configured TLS
certificates in the CertMgr database
NOMAD_WEB_HOST=domino.acme.com

Start HCL Nomad server task
Console commad: load nomad
Check Task, console commad: sh tasks

Open HCL Nomad and first login
The Nomad server is listening on Port: 9443 in default

Configuration of the Nomad server
To change default settings, you need to create a YAML file in the Domino Data named:
nomad-config.yml
Here you can configure:
• Ports
• IP Addresses
• Certificates
• Cookies
• Refresh rates

Best Practices for HCL Nomad Web

Challenge:
Binding ports lower than 1024 is prohibited by default.
(This is NodeJS standard security)
Solution:
You need to give the NodeJS task the right to bind to ports lower than 1024
How to configure Port 443 on Linux based Domino servers

Step 1:
Nomad must not run. Execute the following line to set the correct permissions
setcap 'cap_net_bind_service=+ep’ /opt/hcl/domino/notes/latest/linux/nwsp-linux
Step 2:
Create a “nomad-config.yml” file in the Data Directory with the following two entries

Step 3:
Start nomad on Domino. (load nomad)

here – after ID-Vault password prompt on initial start:

DEMO
if we have enough time ☺

1. How can I use NomadWeb if my Domino server(s) run on AIX or
System i?
2. How can I upgrade the local Nomad ‘installations’ in case of a
new version is available?
Questions we got asked at recent conferences

3. We are using Microsoft Outlook. If we get document links from
Domino Applications, Windows asks me with which Application
the link should be opened. Can we configure it that Nomad Web
will be used for those links?
