Important Notes

  1. It is not necessary to install this client package if upgrading a server from a previous version that contained the Nokia and WM clients. During upgrade, existing client software is not removed from the system.
  2. If running a Notes Traveler HA pool, it is only necessary to perform these steps on one of the servers in the pool. The clients will automatically be made available on all servers in the pool.
  3. It is not possible to remove the clients once installed without dropping the database. See Preventing Download section below for more details.
  4. To manager client levels or check if this version is already installed use the Client Managerexternal link feature of the Web Administration interface, generally found at:

    http(s)://yourhostname/LotusTraveler.nsf/xClientSoftware.xsp
  5. For more information on managing client versions see the Client Managerexternal link documentation from the Administrating Notes Travelerexternal link section of the product documentation.
  6. For Client usage documentation and supported devices see the Usage Guideexternal link for Notes Traveler 8.5.3 Upgrade Pack 2, which was the last release to ship these clients.
