The Unitrends OES agent installer provides an option to configure GroupWise paths. These configured paths are excluded during any master restore to avoid corruption of the GroupWise database. These paths should be updated whenever the GroupWise location changes. See To update GroupWise paths. The GroupWise database consists of at least one domain and one post office. Make sure that you have a separate path for every post office and domain.
For example, during the GroupWise system creation a user has defined:
• The domain as \gwdom\
• Post office as \gwpoa\
The master.ini on the OES system will have the following entries (there may be multiple GroupWise database paths):
GW_DB_PATH1=\gwdom\
GW_DB_PATH2=\gwpoa\
TSA-based Novell OES Linux clients support live backups of your GroupWise database. A live backup (i.e. without stopping and restarting GroupWise). To ensure a consistent state, the underlying TSAFS must be loaded with the GroupWise flag set to True.
