Maintaining Domain and Post
Office Databases
Occasionally, it is necessary to perform maintenance tasks on domain databases (
wpdomain.db
) or
post office databases (
wphost.db
). The frequency depends on the reliability of your network and
your own experience of how often problems are likely to occur. The following tasks help you
maintain the integrity of your domain and post office databases:
Section 26.1, “Validating Domain or Post Office Databases,” on page 393
Section 26.2, “Recovering Domain or Post Office Databases,” on page 394
Section 26.3, “Rebuilding Domain or Post Office Databases,” on page 397
Section 26.4, “Rebuilding Database Indexes,” on page 399
NOTE:
Unfortunately, damage to databases cannot be prevented. A power outage can occur in the
middle of a write to a database. A hard drive can fail. However, the GroupWise
®
tools for repairing
damaged databases are very effective and should be able to resolve most damage to GroupWise
databases.
To further protect your GroupWise system against loss of domain and post office information, see:
Chapter 31, “Backing Up GroupWise Databases,” on page 423
Chapter 32, “Restoring GroupWise Databases from Backup,” on page 427
To ensure that the same information exists in all domain and post office databases throughout your
GroupWise system, see:
Section 29.5, “Synchronizing the Primary Domain from a Secondary Domain,” on page 414
Section 29.4, “Synchronizing a Secondary Domain,” on page 413
Section 29.2, “Synchronizing a Post Office,” on page 412
26.1 Validating Domain or Post Office Databases
You can validate the data in the domain and post office databases at any time without interrupting
normal GroupWise operation. The frequency can vary depending on the size of your system and the
number of changes you make to users, resources, and distribution lists.
1
Make sure you have full administrative rights to the domain and post office database directories
you are validating.
2
In ConsoleOne
®
, browse to and select the Domain object or Post Office object where you want
to validate the database.
