The GroupWise software distribution directory resides initially on the GroupWise Administrator CD. GroupWise Administration is installed directly from the CD. In addition, during installation, you create a software distribution directory on your network from which you subsequently install the GroupWise agents and GroupWise client software.
The default software distribution directory is \grpwise\software.
The agents subdirectory contains all files associated with GroupWise agents:
The install.exe file in the agent subdirectory
is the installation program you run to install the GroupWise agents
on the servers where you will run the POA and/or MTA. For
instructions, see Installing
GroupWise Agents
in the GroupWise
7 Installation Guide.
The nlm subdirectory in the agent subdirectory contains the GroupWise agent NLM™ files installed on NetWare servers. See NetWare Installation Directory.
The nt subdirectory contains the GroupWise agent files installed on Windows servers. See Windows Installation Directory.
The startups subdirectory contains the default startup files for the GroupWise agents. During installation, a customized startup file is created for each agent that includes the location of the domain or post office serviced by that agent. The customized startup files are named after the domain or post office for which they are created. See NetWare Installation Directory or Windows Installation Directory.
The snmp subdirectory contains GroupWise
MIB files. For more information, see Using
an SNMP Management Console
in Post
Office Agent
and Message
Transfer Agent

7 Administration Guide.
The help directory holds the help files that
you can view from the agent Web consoles. See Using
the POA Web Console

The domain subdirectory contains the files from which domains are created.
The wpdomain.dc file is the distribution copy of the data dictionary for rebuilding GroupWise 4.x domain databases (wpdomain.db files) in secondary domains.
If the wpdomain.dc file is missing from the primary domain, you cannot rebuild GroupWise 4.x secondary domains. The original wpdomain.dc file is located in the domain directory of the GroupWise distribution media.
Historical Note: WordPerfect Office (WP Office), the predecessor of GroupWise, was originally designed by WordPerfect Corporation (WPCorp). Hence, the wp in wpdomain.dc. Some naming conventions were originally preserved for backward compatibility.
The gwdom.dc file is the distribution copy of the data dictionary for creating and rebuilding GroupWise 7.x, 6.x, and GroupWise 5.x domain databases (wpdomain.db files) in secondary domains.
If the gwdom.dc file is missing from the primary domain, you cannot create or rebuild GroupWise 7.x/6.x/5.x secondary domains. The original gwdom.dc file is located in the domain subdirectory of the GroupWise distribution media.
Historical Note: WP Office, the predecessor of GroupWise, was originally designed by WordPerfect Corporation (WPCorp). Hence, the wp in wpdomain.db. Some naming conventions were originally preserved for backward compatibility.
The wphost.dc file is the distribution copy of the data dictionary for rebuilding GroupWise 4.x post office databases (wphost.db files).
If the wphost.dc file is missing from a domain, you cannot rebuild GroupWise 4.x post offices in that domain. The original wphost.dc file is located in the domain subdirectory of the GroupWise distribution media. There is also a copy in the po subdirectory.
Historical Note: WP Office, the predecessor of GroupWise, was originally designed by WordPerfect Corporation (WPCorp). Post offices were originally called hosts. Hence, the name wphost.dc. Some naming conventions were originally preserved for backward compatibility.
The gwpo.dc file is the distribution copy of the data dictionary for creating and rebuilding GroupWise 7.x, 6.x, and GroupWise 5.x post office databases (wphost.db files).
If the gwpo.dc file is missing from a domain, you cannot create or rebuild GroupWise 7.x/6.x/5.x post offices in that domain. The original gwpo.dc file is located in the domain directory of the GroupWise Administrator CD. There is also a copy in the po directory.
Historical Note: WP Office, the predecessor of GroupWise, was originally designed by WordPerfect Corporation (WPCorp). Post offices were originally called hosts. Hence, the name wphost.db. Some naming conventions were originally preserved for backward compatibility.
The po subdirectory contains the files from which post offices are created.
The ngwguard.dc file is the distribution copy of the data dictionary for building the following databases in the post office:
If the ngwguard.dc file is missing from a post office, new databases cannot be created in the post office, so the post office cannot grow. The original ngwguard.dc file is located in the po directory of the GroupWise Administrator CD.
In Remote mode, the GroupWise client also uses the ngwguard.dc file as the data dictionary for its local databases.
