1.5 Setting Up Server Only Profiles

1.5.1 Server Only Model

The Server model requires an NFS connection from the GroupWise server to the GroupWise Disaster Recovery server and uses DBCopy to copy the databases and BLOB files between servers. This is slower than the rsync connection that the collector uses, but does not require any extra disk space on the GroupWise server.

The following ports will need to be opened on the firewall for NFS:

  • UDP: 111, 1039, 1047, 1048 and 2049

  • TCP: 111, 1039, 1047, 1048 and 2049

1.5.2 Creating Profiles On Linux GroupWise Systems

There are two kinds of profiles: Domain and Post Office.

You will need to create a directory on the GroupWise Disaster Recovery server for the backup data. The name of the profile will be used to create sub-directories for each profile. For example:

/reload/

You will need to know the directories on the GroupWise server for the live data. For example:

/groupwise/domain

/groupwise/po1

1.5.3 Configure Profiles

There are two kinds of Server Only Model Profiles: Domain Creating Server Only Model Domain Profiles and Post Office Creating Server Only Post Office Profiles.
