13.4 Planning a New Clustered Post Office
The considerations involved in planning a new post office in a clustering environment are
essentially the same as for any other environment. The initial post office in a new GroupWise
system is planned on the Basic GroupWise System Worksheet. To plan additional new post offices,
review “
Planning a New Post Office ”, then print and fill out the “ Post Office Worksheet ” in “ Post
Offices ” in the GroupWise 7 Administration Guide . When you specify the location for the post office
directory, remember that it will be on a GroupWise partition , not on the node where you will be
running the GroupWise Installation program.
When you have completed the worksheet, transfer key information from the Basic GroupWise
System Worksheet or the Post Office Worksheet to the System Clustering Worksheet.
IMPORTANT: Do not create the new post office until you are instructed to do so in Chapter 14,
“Setting Up a Domain and a Post Office in a Linux Cluster,” on page 143 .
13.5 Planning a New Library for a Clustered Post
Office
The considerations involved in planning a new library in a clustering environment are essentially the
same as for any other environment. However, in a Linux cluster, you should not plan to locate a
document storage area on a remote storage area. If you choose to place it outside the post office
directory structure, it should still be located on the same server with the post office.
You can plan a library for a clustered post office by following the standard instructions provided in
“
Creating and Managing Libraries ” in the GroupWise 7 Administration Guide and filling out the
“ Basic Library Worksheet ” or the “ Full-Service Library Worksheet ”. Then provide the library
information on the System Clustering Worksheet.
IMPORTANT: Do not create the new library until you are instructed to do so in Chapter 14,
“Setting Up a Domain and a Post Office in a Linux Cluster,” on page 143 .
SYSTEM CLUSTERING WORKSHEET
Under Item 10: Post Office Name , transfer the post office name and database location to the System
Clustering Worksheet. Also specify the secondary IP address of the shared partition where you plan to
create the domain.
If you will create the post office on a different GroupWise partition from where the domain is located,
under
Item 8: Shared Partition for Post Office , transfer the post office location to the System Clustering
Worksheet. Also specify the secondary IP address of the shared partition where you plan to create the
post office.
SYSTEM CLUSTERING WORKSHEET
Under Item 11: Document Storage Area Location , mark where you want to create the library’s
document storage area.
