Intellisync Mobile Suite Release Notes 9
Do not install any component of Nokia Intellisync Mobile Suite through Terminal Services,
as your system may not work properly.
The latency between the Nokia Intellisync Mobile Suite server and a backend server,
database, or file system, should be 36 milliseconds or less. Any other setting is not
recommended.
If you are upgrading the Nokia Intellisync Mobile Server from a 6.x version directly to the
8.0 SP1 version, your SSL certificate must be set up to export the private key or the upgrade
installation will not complete. To set this option on your SSL certificate, gather the
certificate information, uninstall the certificate, and then reinstall the certificate, selecting
the “Yes, export the private key” option.This does not apply to servers upgrading from
Intellisync Mobile Suite version 7.x to the 8.0 SP1 version.
Server Notes
Domino R5 and Exchange 5.5 are no longer certified as compatible with this release and will
not be certified going forward. Support for Domino R5 and Exchange 5.5 was not explicitly
removed, but these versions have not been tested against this release.
VMWare is supported for installation of the Intellisync Mobile Suite server. Two
configurations are certified, specifically against VMWare version 4.0.0:
One slice for the server and one slice for the Secure Gateway, with two NICs
One complete server running in each of two slices simultaneously, with one NIC
If you use a virtual machine session Intellisync Mobile Suite, disk space and RAM
requirements also apply. Intellisync Mobile Suite is a disk intensive application; consider
this fact when deciding which other applications you want to run on the same host machine.
Orange-signed clients are available in this release in addition to the standard
Mobile2Market-signed clients. These clients are disabled in the user interface by default
because they add an additional choice to the product installation that can confuse users who
are not in areas served by an Orange operator. Enabling the clients requires a simple option
on the Admin Console; contact Nokia support for that information.
The architectural clustering model for this release has changed somewhat from previous
releases. If you are planning a large cluster (more than two servers) or are upgrading a large
installation with specialized task processor servers, contact Nokia support for the revised
guidelines.
Windows Mobile Client Notes
The clients in this release are supported on Windows Mobile 2003, Windows Mobile 2003
Second Edition, and Windows Mobile 5. Windows Mobile 5 devices with AKU versions 1
and 2 are certified. AKU 3.x devices are also supported.
Windows Mobile 6 devices are supported in this release as well. Because certification has
been done on devices that have not yet been released by the manufacturers, we cannot list
certified devices for Windows Mobile 6. However, the Windows Mobile 6 operating system
is supported.
