Whenever you change domain information, it is efficient to connect directly to the domain before you begin making modifications. This enables ConsoleOne to write directly to the domain database (wpdomain.db). Performing administrative tasks in a domain while not connected to it increases the amount of administrative message traffic sent between domains.
IMPORTANT:In a large GroupWise system, especially where some domains are on Linux servers and some domains are on Windows servers, and where you might be running ConsoleOne on a different platform from where the domain directory is located, a direct connection might not be convenient. Although they are efficient, direct connections are not required for most GroupWise administration tasks. For more information, see Section 4.1.2, Understanding the Need for Domain Connections.

In ConsoleOne in the GroupWise View, right-click the Domain object, then click
