26.3 Rebuilding Domain or Post Office
Databases
In addition to correcting the physical problems resolved by the database recover process, the rebuild
process updates user and object information in a domain database (
wpdomain.db
) or post office
database (
wphost.db
). However, the process requires that no users or GroupWise agents (MTA or
POA) have access to the database during the rebuild process.
You should rebuild a domain or post office database if you encounter any of the following
conditions:
Š
Objects are not being replicated between domains.
Š
The agent that writes to the database went down unexpectedly.
Š
The server where the database resides went down unexpectedly.
Š
You receive an administrative message informing you that an internal database error has
occurred or there is database damage and you think there might be data loss.
Š You ran the recover database process and received a notification of data loss.
When you rebuild a secondary domain database, information is retrieved from the primary domain.
When you rebuild a post office database, information is retrieved from the domain it belongs to.
During the rebuild process, a backup of the domain or post office database is created as well as a
new
wpdomain.db
or
wphost.db
. The records from the primary domain database are copied into
the new
wpdomain.db
. There should not be any data loss. When the rebuild process is complete, the
temporary database and the backup database are deleted.
