How to Add a Secondary GroupWise Domain to the Riva Server

Background: In environments where GroupWise is installed exclusively on non-NetWare servers (non-NSS Linux volumes or Windows servers), an empty GroupWise Secondary Domain must be installed on the Riva On-Premise server. This is required to allow Riva connections for GroupWise to create the Trusted Application Key and communicate with the GroupWise domains. The following procedure includes links to the appropriate Novell installation and configuration documentation.

Supported Operating Systems: Windows Server 2008 R2 (x86, X64), 2008, 2003 R2, 2003

Recommended Procedure

1. On the Windows Server, install the latest versions of the Windows Novell client and ConsoleOne application.

2. Authenticate to the eDirectory tree hosting the GroupWise system as an admin level user.

3. In the file system on a local drive on the Windows server, create a folder to hold the GroupWise Domain files, for example C:\GrpWise\<Domain-Name> or D:\GrpWise\<Domain-Name>.

4. Start ConsoleOne, and create the secondary GroupWise domain. Copy (save) the domain files to the local path created at step 3.

   • For GroupWise 2012, see Creating the New Domain.

5. In ConsoleOne, configure the MTA Agent for the new GroupWise domain.

   • For GroupWise 7, see Configuring the MTA for the New Domain and Configuring New Agent Objects in eDirectory.
   • For GroupWise 8, see Configuring the MTA for the New Domain and Configuring New Agent Objects in eDirectory.
   • For GroupWise 2012, see Configuring the MTA for the New Domain and Configuring New Agent Objects in eDirectory.

6. Ensure that the Windows 2003/2008 Server meets the system requirements for installing the MTA agent.

   • For GroupWise 7, see Agent System Requirements.
   • For GroupWise 8, see Agent System Requirements.
   • For GroupWise 2012, see Agent System Requirements.

7. Run the Agent Installer program to install the MTA Agent software on the Windows Server.

   • For GroupWise 7, see Windows: Setting Up the GroupWise Agents.
   • For GroupWise 8, see Windows: Setting Up the GroupWise Agents.
   • For GroupWise 2012, see Windows: Setting up the GroupWise Agents.

8. For GroupWise 2012 systems, manually create a trusted application key from ConsoleOne.
