List the servers that are part of the cluster that you set up for your GroupWise system.

For more information, see Setting Up Your Microsoft Cluster.

3) Resources for GroupWise Administration:

ConsoleOne:

Shared disk:
Possible owners:

Software Distribution Directory:

Shared disk:
Possible owners:

List any shared locations that you want to set up for ConsoleOne or the software distribution directory.

For more information, see Planning Shared Administrative Resources.

4) Resource Group for Domain:

Network name:
IP address:
Physical disk:
File share:
MTA service:
Possible owners

Post Office in Same Resource Group as Domain?

  • Yes
  • No

Specify the information for the domain resource group.

For more information, see Planning a New Clustered Domain.

5) Resource Group for Post Office:

Network name:
IP address:
Physical disk:
File share:
MTA service:
Possible owners

Specify the information for the post office resource group.

For more information, see Planning a New Clustered Post Office.

6) IP Address Resolution Methods:

  • eDirectory
  • hosts file
  • DNS

Mark the short name address resolution methods you want to implement to ensure that the UNC paths stored in ConsoleOne with network names can be successfully resolved into physical network addresses.

For more information, see Ensuring Successful Name Resolution for GroupWise Resource Groups

7) Domain Name:

Domain Directory:

Specify a unique name for the domain. Specify the directory where you want to create the new domain.

For more information, see Planning a New Clustered Domain.

8) Post Office Name:

Post Office Directory:

Specify a unique name for the post office. Specify the directory where you want to create the post office.

For more information, see Planning a New Clustered Post Office.

9) Document Storage Area Location:

  • At the post office
  • Outside the post office
  • Separate post office

Document Storage Area Access

If you need a library for a clustered post office, mark where you want to create its document storage area and provide a directory if necessary.

For more information, see Planning a Library for a New Clustered Post Office.

Agent Clustering Worksheet

Item Explanation

1) Agent installation location:

  • Shared disk with domain or post office
  • Each node in the cluster

    Consolidate startup files?

Mark the location where you will install the agent software.

If necessary, specify the location where you will store agent startup files on the same shared disk with the domain or post office.

For more information, see Deciding Where to Install the Agent Software .
