As of GroupWise 2012, GroupWise does not include GroupWise agents that run on NetWare, because NetWare has entered the Extended Support phase of the Micro Focus Support Life cycle. For more information, see TID 7003092, NetWare Support,
in the Micro Focus Support Knowledgebase.
If you currently have NetWare servers in your GroupWise system, you must decide how to handle them as you move forward with your GroupWise 18 upgrade. You have several alternatives:
Migrate NetWare servers to Open Enterprise Server (OES).
Move domains and post offices from NetWare servers to supported Linux servers.
Move domains and post offices from NetWare servers to supported Windows servers.
You might decide to use one or more of these alternatives as you upgrade your GroupWise system to GroupWise 18. Detailed instructions for each alternative are provided in Migrating Away from NetWare
in the GroupWise 2012 Installation Guide, because GroupWise 2012 is the first version where NetWare is not supported.
