Novell GROUPWISE 7 - INTEROPERABILITY GUIDE Manual page 173

As a result of selecting Configure GroupWise for Clustering on the preferred node, the
following cluster-specific configuration actions are performed:
The Internet Agent startup file (gwia.cfg) is created in mount_point/groupwise/
agents/share on the shared resource so that the Internet Agent uses the same startup
file regardless of which cluster node it is running on. The --home switch includes the
mount point and the path to the database so that the startup file is valid when mounted to
each cluster node.
The --cluster switch is added to the Internet Agent startup file to inform the Internet Agent
that it is running in a cluster.
The --ip startup switch is set to the secondary IP address of the shared resource where the
domain is located. This ensures that the Internet Agent runs with the same IP address
regardless of which cluster node it is running on.
The --log startup switch is set to a location on the shared resource (mount_point/
groupwise/agents/log) so that Internet Agent logging information is written to
the same log file regardless of which cluster node it is running on.
If this is the first GroupWise agent installed on this cluster node, the GroupWise High
Availability service is automatically configured and its configuration file (gwha.conf)
is created in the /etc/opt/novell/groupwise directory. If another GroupWise
agent has already been installed on this cluster node, the gwha.conf file is updated to
include the Internet Agent.
The clusterimport.conf file in the gwinst subdirectory of the software
distribution directory from which you ran the GroupWise Installation program is updated,
so that the cluster-specific information collected when you configured the Internet Agent
on the preferred node is available when you install the Internet Agent on subsequent
nodes.
The Internet Agent is not configured to start automatically on system startup. In a cluster,
you do not want the Internet Agent to start automatically whenever a node restarts.
6 Configure the Internet Agent to run as a non-root user, as described in the applicable section
