15.1.1 Planning a Domain for the Internet Agent
The considerations involved in planning a domain for the Internet Agent are much the same as
planning any other domain. In preparation, review “
Planning a New Domain ”, then print and fill out
the “ Domain Worksheet ” in “ Domains ” in the GroupWise 7 Administration Guide .
Keep in mind the following cluster-specific details:
Š
When you specify the location for the domain directory on the Domain Worksheet, remember
that it is on a
GroupWise partition , not on the node where you running the GroupWise
Installation program. This location is referred to as the Internet Agent partition because it is
where the Internet Agent message queues are located.
Š
Do not concern yourself with the GroupWise agent information on the Domain Worksheet. You
can stop with
item 10 . You will plan the MTA installation later.
When you have completed the Domain Worksheet, transfer the key information from the Domain
Worksheet to the Internet Agent Clustering Worksheet.
IMPORTANT: Do not create the new domain until you are instructed to do so in Section 15.2.1,
“Creating a Domain for the Internet Agent,” on page 171 .
15.1.2 Selecting the Internet Agent Partition and Secondary IP
Address
As with the MTA and the POA, the Internet Agent needs a secondary IP address that remains the
same no matter which node in the cluster it is running on. You can place the Internet Agent and its
domain on a
GroupWise partition where a domain or post office already reside, which means that the
Internet Agent shares the same secondary IP address as that domain or post office and fails over
along with that domain or post office. Or you can place the Internet Agent and its domain on its own
GroupWise partition, which means that it has its own secondary IP address and fails over
independently.
INTERNET AGENT CLUSTERING WORKSHEET
Under Item 1: GroupWise Partition for the Internet Agent , transfer the domain location to the Internet
Agent Clustering Worksheet.
Under Item 2: Internet Agent Domain Name , transfer the domain name and database directory to the
Internet Agent Clustering Worksheet.
INTERNET AGENT CLUSTERING WORKSHEET
Under Item 1: GroupWise Partition for Internet Agent , specify the secondary IP address for the
Internet Agent partition.
Under Item 5: MTA Network Information , copy the same secondary IP address.
Under Item 6: Internet Agent Network Information , copy the same secondary IP address.
