Because the agent startup files and log files are stored on the shared resource, they do not need
to be customized for each cluster node.
6 Configure the agents to run as a non-root user, as described in the applicable section of the
GroupWise 7 Installation
"Running the Linux GroupWise Agents as a Non-root
"Setting Up Non-root Access on an NSS Volume on Novell Open Enterprise Server
Linux"
7 Repeat
After you install and configure the agents on each node in each agent's failover list, the cluster
node is ready for the GroupWise agent to fail over to it.

Testing Your Agent Installation on Each Node
1 Test the agents by starting them with a user interface, as described in
Agents with a User
Administration
/opt/novell/groupwise/agents/bin/gwmta --show @domain.mta &
/opt/novell/groupwise/agents/bin/gwpoa --show @post_office.poa &
2 Stop the agents by clicking File > Exit
3 After you can see that the agents start successfully, test them by starting them as daemons, as
described in
Agents" in the
/etc/init.d/grpwise start
/etc/init.d grpwise status
4 Stop the agents.
/etc/init.d/grpwise stop
/etc/init.d grpwise status
5 Return to
for each node in the domain or post office failover list.
When you have installed the agents on all of the nodes in the domain and post office failover lists,
continue with
14.4.2 Changing Agent Paths to Locations on GroupWise
Partitions
The default locations for some agent files are on the cluster nodes along with the agent software,
rather than being located with the domain and post office on one or more GroupWise partitions. To
avoid having multiple copies of these files in multiple locations, you should set the locations in
ConsoleOne.
