POA |
POAs are automatically upgraded along with the post offices that they belong to. The upgrade process looks for POA startup files. If a POA startup file is found, the setting of the --home switch is verified. If the home folder is valid, the existing POA startup file is used with the upgraded POA. If the POA startup file cannot be found, or if the home folder is not valid, a new POA startup file is created in the post office folder. The GroupWise location for POA startup files is the post office folder. If you have been running multiple POAs on multiple servers, the upgrade process cannot upgrade POAs on remote servers. In GroupWise, the need for running multiple POAs for a post office does not occur. You can configure the POA that runs on the server where the post office is located to handle all the needs of the post office. If your existing POAs have been using the internal Document Converter Agent (DCA) rather than the independent Document Viewer Agent (DVA), you must run at least one DVA in your GroupWise system. |

MTA |
MTAs are automatically upgraded along with the domains that they belong to. The upgrade process looks for MTA startup files. If an MTA startup file is found, the setting of the --home switch is verified. If the home folder is valid, the existing MTA startup file is used with the upgraded MTA. If the MTA startup file cannot be found, or if the home folder is not valid, a new MTA startup file is created in the domain folder. The GroupWise location for MTA startup files is the domain folder. |

GWIA |
GWIAs are automatically upgraded along with the domains that they belong to. IMPORTANT:If you are upgrading to GroupWise 24.3 from GroupWise 8, you need to understand the important changes to where GWIA configuration information is stored. See |

DVA |
Existing DVAs are automatically upgraded along with the POAs that they were installed with. However, their startup files (gwdva.dva) are not modified. On Linux, the gwha.conf file already has an entry for each DVA. On Windows, the DVA service is already set up. If you were not running a DVA in your existing GroupWise system, you must install and configure at least one DVA in your GroupWise system. |
