Post Offices: Archive/Delete Documents

Archives and deletes documents for the selected libraries in the post office, or for all libraries in the post office if you select Post Offices under GroupWise Objects.

GroupWise Objects
Select Libraries or Post Offices, then select the libraries or post offices for which you want to perform maintenance. If the library or post office you want does not appear in the GroupWise Objects list, click Close. Select the library or post office in the ConsoleOne® browser window, then click Tools > GroupWise Utilities > Mailbox/Library Maintenance.

Object Type
Allows you to select the objects you want to maintain. You can run the Archive/Delete Documents action on a post office or for a library. You can run the Archive/Delete Documents action for one or more selected libraries, or for all libraries in one or more selected post offices.

Action: Archive/Delete Documents
Select Archive/Delete Documents to reduce the disk space occupied by the selected libraries in the post office, or for all libraries in the post office.

Tab Options
The Databases, Logging, Results, and Misc tabs let you specify database types and logging options.

Databases
All options on the Databases tab are dimmed because only the document databases are affected.

Document
Document databases store documents and all related document information in database files located under the post_office_ID\gwdms\lib0-FF directories.

Logging
Enter a filename. By default, the file is created in the po\wpcsout\ofs directory, where po is the post office directory.

Log File
Enter a new name for the log file, or accept the default name.
Verbose Logging
Produces maximum detail; however, this option creates very large log files and slows execution.

Results
Sends the results to the user defined as the GroupWise® domain administrator. Select Individual Users to send each user the results that pertain to his or her GroupWise user account. The CC area is a comma-delimited field used to list additional users who will receive the report. The Message button displays a text area where you can send a message.

Misc
Support options are typically obtained from Novell® Support representatives when you need assistance resolving specific database problems. Some information about commonly used options is available in the Support Knowledgebase. Make sure that you clearly understand what the Support options do before you use them.

Run
Executes the GroupWise Mailbox/Library Maintenance options you have selected.

Retrieve
Use Retrieve to browse to and select an options file. The default file name is gwckrun.opt.

Save
Saves the currently selected options. By default, the options file is saved to the domain\wptools directory, where domain is the domain directory to which you are currently connected.
