32.5.1 Setting Up a Restore Area
A restore area is only as useful as the post office data that is backed up regularly. Make sure you are
backing up every GroupWise post office regularly, as described in
Section 31.2, “Backing Up a Post
Office,” on page 407
.
A restore area is a location you designate to hold a backup copy of a post office so that you or
GroupWise Windows client users can access it to retrieve mailbox items that are unavailable in your
live GroupWise system.
To set up a restore area:
1
In ConsoleOne, click
Tools > GroupWise System Operations > Restore Area Management
.
The Restore Area Directory Management dialog box lists any restore areas that currently exist
in your GroupWise system.
2
Click
Create
to set up a new restore area.
