Clear User Set Password
Select Clear User Set Password to remove the user's personal password from his or her GroupWise mailbox. A password set by the administrator is retained, even though the user's personal password is cleared.

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 and the User database is selected by default because only the User databases are affected.

User
Each user on a post office has a user database (userxxx.db where xxx is the user's file ID) located in the ofuser directory. The user database stores the user's setup information, personal groups, rules, and other information specific to the user. It also contains references to the user's messages in the message databases.

Logging
To log information to a file, 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.
