Performing Maintenance Operations
To perform maintenance operations such as validating, recovering, or rebuilding domain databases;
fixing user, resource, or post office databases; or changing a user's client options, an administrator
must have Read and Write rights to the NGW: GroupWise ID property for the object being
modified. For example, to rebuild a domain database, an administrator requires Read and Write
rights to the NGW: GroupWise ID property for the Domain object. Or, to change a user's client
options, an administrator requires Read and Write rights to the NGW: GroupWise ID property for
the User object.
For information about giving a user rights to an object's properties or restricting a user's rights to an
object's properties, see
