A:
Unfortunately you can't store your GroupWise caching or remote database in your local iFolder directory. If you do this, the iFolder client will corrupt the GroupWise archive. This happens because iFolder does not synchronize files as a set (it synchronizes just the changed portions of a file) and GroupWise needs the files in the archive to be maintained as a set of files. However, you can make a backup of the caching or remote database and store this in your local iFolder directory.
This problem does not only occur with GroupWise; similar problems might arise with any database that is implemented as a collection of linked files.
