Descriptions
After setting up your clustered GroupWise system, while the cluster-specific information is fresh in
your mind, you should record that cluster-specific information as part of the GroupWise objects in
ConsoleOne so that you can easily refer to it later. Be sure to keep the information recorded in the
GroupWise objects up to date if the configuration of your system changes.
