Preparing
Perform the steps in this section to prepare your on-premises
servers for a hybrid environment. Perform these steps after you have
planned for the service and before you configure the service.
Creating a certifier for your mail servers IBM® Domino® organizational
unit (OU) certifier to use for certification of your IBM
SmartCloud Notes mail
servers. Preparing your network IBM
SmartCloud Notes servers
and on-premises servers. Configure inner and outer firewalls. Then
set up a dedicated IBM Domino domain
between the firewalls. The domain will function as a passthru server
domain through which connections from SmartCloud Notes servers
to your on-premises servers occur. Preparing for directory synchronization Domino server
in the on-premises hub domain to be a directory synchronization server.
Then prepare to replicate directories to the service. Preparing Global Domain documents Preparing for mail routing Preparing for calendars and scheduling Helping service users connect to application servers in secondary domains IBM Domino servers
to open applications. If the application servers are in the same Domino domain
as your primary mail hub servers, service users see them listed in
the Open Application window in IBM Notes .
If the application servers are in a secondary domain, use an External
Domain Network Information (EDNI) document. Then run the GETADRS program
to enable the secondary domain servers to be listed in the Open Application
window. In this case, users click Other in
the window to see the servers listed.
