Structure:
When a user experiences a problem that is related to the library databases, you
should perform a structure check. The structure check verifies the integrity of the databases and
reports the amount of space that could be recovered. If there is a structural problem, the
databases are rebuilt with free space reclaimed.
Index Check:
If you select
Structure
, you can also select
Index Check
. An index check can be
time-consuming.
Contents:
The library database (located in the gwdms directory of the post office) does not
contain documents. Documents are stored in the
lib00
00-FF
directories. A contents check
analyzes references from libraries to documents.
Collect Statistics:
If you selected
Contents
, the
Collect Statistics
option is available to collect
and display statistics about the library, such as the number and size of documents.
Attachment File Check:
Files that are attached to messages are stored under the offiles
subdirectory in the post office. When Mailbox/Library Maintenance performs an attachment
file check, it reads each attachment file, verifying the file structure. If you skip the attachment
file check, Mailbox/Library Maintenance verifies that the attachment file exists but it does not
process the file in any way.
Fix Problems:
This option tells Mailbox/Library Maintenance to fix any problems it finds.
Otherwise, Mailbox/Library Maintenance just reports the problems.

Using the tabs at the bottom of the Mailbox/Library Maintenance dialog box, set the following
options:
“Databases” on page 445
“Logging” on page 445
“Results” on page 446
“Misc” on page 446
Selected options can be saved for repeated use. See
“Saving Mailbox/Library Maintenance
Options” on page 447
.

Click Run to perform the Analyze/Fix Databases operation on the library.
Analyze/Fix Databases can also be run using the standalone GroupWise Check program. See
Section 34.1, “GroupWise Check,” on page 439
. It can also be scheduled to run on a regular basis by
properly configuring the POA. See
Section 36.4.1, “Scheduling Database Maintenance,” on
page 520
.
28.2 Analyzing and Fixing Library and Document
Information
The Analyze/Fix Library option of Mailbox/Library Maintenance performs more library-specific
functions than Analyze/Fix Databases. For all options except Verify Library, all documents in each
of the selected library databases are checked. This can be a time-consuming process. Therefore, if
you intend to select more than one of the Analyze/Fix Library options, you can save time by
selecting each of them before clicking Run. This causes all selected options to be run against each
document, which is faster than running each option individually against all documents.
To validate library databases:
1
In ConsoleOne, browse to and select one or more Post Office objects where you want to
validate libraries.
