3.2 Administration Service Architecture

The GroupWise Administration Service provides the GroupWise Administration console in your web browser. The Administration console provides the global view of your GroupWise system. It enables you to configure and customize all GroupWise objects (Domain, Post Office, User, MTA, POA, GWIA, DVA, and so on). It also provide a number of administrative tools for managing your GroupWise system.

The Admin Service runs on each domain server and post office server. The Admin Service communicates with Admin Services on other GroupWise servers and with the agents that run on its local server. You can access the Administration console on any domain server. For post office access, you access the Administration console for the domain that owns the post office.
