25.3 User Databases
Each member of the post office has a personal database (
user xxx .db
) that represents the user’s
mailbox. The user database contains the following:
Š
Message header information
Š Pointers to messages
Š
Personal groups
Š Personal address books
Š
Rules
When a member of another post office shares a folder with one or more members of the local post
office, a “prime user” database (
pu xxxxx .db
) is created to store the shared information. The “prime
user” is the owner of the shared information.
Local user databases and prime user databases are stored in the
ofuser
directory in the post office.
Because resources are addressable just like users, resources also have user databases.
For the location of user databases in the post office, see “ Post Office Directory ” in GroupWise 8
Troubleshooting 3: Message Flow and Directory Structure . For more post office information, see
Section 35.3, “Information Stored in the Post Office,” on page 476 .
25.4 Message Databases
Each member of the post office is assigned to a message database (
msg nnn .db
) where the body
portions of messages are stored. Many users in a post office share a single message database. There
can be as many as 255 message databases in the post office (numbered from 0 to 254). Message
databases are stored in the
ofmsg
directory in the post office.
Outgoing messages from local senders are stored in the message database assigned to each sender.
Incoming messages from users in other post offices are stored in the message database with the same
name as the message database assigned to the sender in his or her own post office. In each case, only
one copy of the message is stored in the post office, no matter how many members of the post office
it is addressed to.
For the location of message databases in the post office, see “ Post Office Directory ” in GroupWise 8
Troubleshooting 3: Message Flow and Directory Structure . For more post office information, see
Section 35.3, “Information Stored in the Post Office,” on page 476 .
25.5 Library Databases
A library is a collection of documents and document properties stored in a database system that can
be managed and searched. You do not need to set up libraries unless you are using GroupWise
Document Management Services (DMS). See
Part VII, “Libraries and Documents,” on page 305 .
The databases for managing libraries are stored in the
gwdms
directory and its subdirectories in the
post office.
The
dmsh.db
file is a database shared by all libraries in the post office. It contains information about
where each library in the post office is located.
