Reference the sections below to understand the need for domain connections and how to connect to a domain.
You can access the GroupWise Administration Console on any server where a domain is located. You should access the Administration Console on the primary domain server to perform the following types of administrative tasks:
Creating and deleting secondary domains
Performing maintenance on the primary domain database (wpdomain.db)
Creating and deleting post offices in the primary domain if they exist
You can access the Administration Console on a secondary domain server to perform the following types of administrative tasks:
Creating and deleting post offices in that domain
Performing maintenance on the secondary domain database (wpdomain.db)
Performing maintenance on post office databases (wphost.db)
Performing maintenance on user/resource databases (userxxx.db) in post offices
Performing maintenance on message databases (msgnnn.db) in post offices
In order to access a domain, the GroupWise Admin Service must be running on the domain server.
In the GroupWise Administration Console, select the domain in the Connected Domain drop-down list.
If the Admin Service on the target domain server is down, a message notifies you, and you cannot connect to the domain.
