Step 2: Load TSAFSGW on Linux OES

Because TSAFSGW depends on SMS, you use the smsconfig command in the /opt/MicroFocus/sms/bin directory, along with one or more home switches, to specify the domains and post offices to back up. Note that this step does not apply to GroupWise 2012 or 2014.

To load TSAFSGW on Linux OES:

  1. Make sure you are logged in as root.

  2. Change to the directory where the SMS executables are located:

    cd /opt/Micro Focus/sms/bin

  3. Use the following command to specify GroupWise locations to back up:

    ./smsconfig -l tsafsgw --home /domain_directory --home /post_office_directory

    For example:

    ./smsconfig -l tsafsgw --home /groupwise_message --home /Post_Office

  4. Verify TSAs currently running:

    ./smsconfig –t

    The following is displayed:

    The loaded TSAs are:
tsafs –-EnableGW  
tsafsgw --home /groupwise_message --home /Post_Office

  5. Modify the SMS configuration file to establish the specified GroupWise locations as defaults for automatic backups in the future, as follows:

    1. Change to the directory where the SMS configuration file is located:

      cd /etc/opt/Micro Focus/sms

    2. In a text editor, open the smdrd.conf file.

    3. Locate the following line:

      autoload: tsafs –-EnableGW

    4. Add another line beneath it for TSAFSGW:

      autoload: tsafsgw --home /groupwise_message --home /Post_Office

    5. Save the file and exit.

    6. Restart SMS services to ensure the changes made to the SMS configuration file smdrd.conf take effect:

      /etc/init.d/service Micro Focus-smdrd restart
