Nomad client is now part of the 1E Client. Please refer to Introducing 1E Client for details of how to deploy the 1E Client with the Nomad client enabled. The 1E Client should be installed on all Windows clients. You must use the correct installer file according to the Windows architecture of the device:
You must also deploy the 1E Client (with Nomad enabled) to Configuration Manager Distribution Points. | Local Administrator to install. |
Download GUI tool installer for optional installation on clients: NomadBranchGui.msi. NoteThis is a troubleshooting, testing, and administrative tool only. It should not be installed generally on devices in your network. | Local Administrator to install. |
ConfigMgr console extensions: NomadBranchAdminUIExt.msi ConfigMgr administrators use console extensions to configure Nomad content download, custom task sequence steps and Nomad Download Pause features. NoteThe installer should be run on all Windows workstations and servers that have Configuration Manager Console installed, including Site servers. | Local Administrator to install. |
ConfigMgr OSD Tools: NomadBranchTools.msi The installer copies the Nomad binaries to the ConfigMgr site installation folder .\OSD\bin\<Architecture> on the SMS Provider server. This enables the files to be injected into the OSD boot image, allowing Nomad to be used during the WinPE deployment phase. The installer will also extend the ConfigMgr site WMI namespace to include definitions of the 1E Nomad built in task sequence steps. NoteThe installer must be run on all Site Servers (except Secondary) and all SMS Provider servers. Specifically, servers which Configuration Manager Consoles may connect to. | Local Administrator to install. |
