Preparing for the Merge
Before you merge two GroupWise
®
systems, you need to prepare the GroupWise systems.
Section 9.7, “Merge Planning Worksheet,” on page 59 contains information you need to prepare for
the merge.
Do the following tasks to prepare the GroupWise domains for merging.
Š
Section 10.1, “Setting Up Administrator Rights,” on page 65
Š Section 10.2, “Deleting Unused GroupWise Objects,” on page 65
Š Section 10.3, “Verifying That UNC Paths Are Correct,” on page 65
Š
Section 10.4, “Resolving Pending Operations,” on page 66
10.1 Setting Up Administrator Rights
Make sure the administrator performing the move is an admin-equivalent in Novell
®
eDirectory
TM
( worksheet item 2 ).
Make sure the administrator also has access to the GroupWise systems being merged.
See “ GroupWise Administrator Rights ” in “ Security Administration ” the GroupWise 7
Administration Guide for information on setting up administrator rights.
10.2 Deleting Unused GroupWise Objects
Use ConsoleOne
®
and the GroupWise View to delete any eDirectory User objects, GroupWise user
accounts, and GroupWise distributions lists that are no longer in use ( worksheet item 3 ).
10.3 Verifying That UNC Paths Are Correct
Merging GroupWise systems requires the use of correct UNC paths. The merge brings over all UNC
paths defined for Site #2.
Even if you have already defined UNC paths, verify that they are accurate. See the following
worksheet items for the paths you will be using:
Š
Item 6: Paths to Site #2 wpdomain.db Files
Š
Item 15: Paths to Site #1 wpdomain.db Files
Š Item 21: Paths to Site #2 Temporary Holding Directories
Š Item 24: Paths to Site #1 Backup Directories

Item 25: Paths to Site #2 Backup Directories
