6.1 Restoring Items Overview

Since GroupWise Disaster Recovery is a backup solution it has the ability to restore items to GroupWise.

That are two methods for restoring items: Restore mode and Access mode.

Restore mode uses the GroupWise restore area manager to allow GroupWise to access the backed up items directly.

Access mode uses a POA on the Reload server that the GroupWise client can access directly, the items can be archived and then restored after reconnecting to the production GroupWise system.
